Tool Time Tuesday

This is my Stamp-a-ma-jig. I love it. I usually use it to position letters in titles of scrapbook pages. I waited a while to get mine because I focused on getting stamps and paper first. Once I first used it I realized it would have been perfect to have as a beginning stamper. There were so many times I did not ink the stamp properly and threw the image out because it didn’t look good. With the stamp-a-ma-jig, I can reink my stamp and place it in the exact image I stamped the first time. I still use it for that purpose but not as often as I would have if I had it at first. Another way I like to use mine is if I have a stamp that I want to put more than one color on. Usually markers are perfect for that occasion but since I don’t have any markers yet, the stamp-a-ma-jig works just fine.
Here are some projects I made for my best friend Carly who go married last year along with a close up of the stationary and the 4x4 notecards. I used the stamp-a-ma-jig to stamp the rose red and the leaves green on the cards and stationary. I also used it to position the French Script Background since the stationary was larger than the background itself.
