Stamparatus Tip #1 | 2 Minute Tuesday Tip
I have talked about my love of my Stamparatus and I realized it was time for some TIPS on ways to use it for more than stamp positioning. Throughout the month, I will be sharing some great tips on the Stamparatus. This is a must-have tool for any stamper and I think you’ll see why as we work our way through some great tips during December.
The stamparatus is a staple in the craft room of any cardmaking, paper crafting, or scrapbooking connoisseur.

I can’t even begin to share how much the Stamparatus has changed the way I stamp. I have a lot of tips to share with you in the coming weeks too.
Don’t have a Stamparatus yet? Be sure to tell Santa that you’ve been a good stamper this year and this is what you would like! Santa LOVES to shop through Simply Simple Stamping too. Just tell him to “click a pic” to order!
It’s NEW! It’s PRETTY! And it’s flippin’ AWESOME! Check out the NEW Craft & Carry Stamparatus bag! Specially designed just for the Stamparatus, this carrying bag is a stamper’s dream. It’s sized perfectly to fit the Stamparatus tool.
Click a pic to order either the bag OR the bag + Stamparatus!
As some of you may know, musical theatre is a big deal in our house. Waiting for a cast list to go up feels like waiting for Christmas morning to arrive. It seems to take FOREVER and the anticipation is killer hard.
Ginny’s high school is doing “Beauty & the Beast” this year. With all of her jaw issues she was not sure she could do it but since the doctors gave her the thumbs up to do it, she’s been busy practicing.
I am so happy to share that her hard work paid off! Ginny got the role of “Belle”! Wahoo! What a great way to end her Senior year of high school. We are all so excited!
Rehearsals started yesterday and performances are in February. It is high school, so no rehearsal over Christmas break but there is one thing the directors can always count on with Ginny — she will come back with all her lines memorized. This is something I have always been really proud of from both my girl. When they are given a role, they works hard and are prepared. I wish I could say that about all the kids but some take it more seriously than others.
So, I am bracing myself for a non-stop repertoire of “Beauty & the Beast” songs coming out of her room and my sweet girl belting the big notes.
Thank you all so much for joining me today! I hope you found today’s tip helpful. It was such a simple tip but um, well, I have to tell you, I learned it the hard way. I couldn’t figure out why my stamped images were messing up. Then I flipped my cardstock around and problem solved.
Make it a great Tuesday everyone! See you right back here on Thursday for a new video. It’s a sweet little stocking stuffer idea PLUS a FREE GIFT FROM ME. You won’t want to miss this one!

Congratulations Ginny!!!
Thanks Mellanie!
I’m so excited for your daughter – and for you! We are a theatre family, too. My youngest was Cinderella and her big sis was Audrey in Little Shop of Horrors while they were in high school. I ended up having to make costumes – the big Cinderella ballgown took me a week! Anyway, I will be following your road to Beauty and the Beast. Please keep us posted. Thank you so much for all your terrific ideas!
Oh how fun! Cinderella is a dream role for Ginny. I’m sure that dress was a challenge. Ginny also played Audrey in Jr. High. Little Shop is one of my favorites.
My very best wishes to Ginny and you as the supporting mom.
Thanks Ellen! She is over the moon excited (so am I!)
Congratulations Ginny! Beauty and the Beast is one of my all time favorites! How exciting!!
Mine too Mary Anne. I am one proud Mom right now!
Tell her good luck! That is one of my favorite musicals. I wish here the very best and wish I could sit in and watch her performance
Thanks Cammi!! We are all so excited!!
Yay for Ginny ! My youngest one was our performer (she was a little chub ,but it did not keep her from being a little spotlight hound ….) I am so so glad Ginny has mended ! Great Christmas present for her !
Love Beauty and I am sure Ginny will knock their socks off with her performance !
Thanks so much Sonny!!
