Just wanted to stop by and introduce myself 😊 My name is Rachel, I’m from Nevada and am really excited to get started. I’m not quite sure how to navigate this site so I hope you’ll all be patient with me.

I would like to get some cute stamped images to make some cards but not sure how to go about it please help.

Thank You

Hi Rachel and welcome from just a bit to the east We are here if you need us. The best way to learn how it's set up is just to visit every day and participate in conversations - it seems overwhelming at first, but there's a wealth of info and you'll be a pro in no time.

Re: stamped images - most companies' angel policies prohibit people sharing stamped images, so your best bet might be to visit our buy/sell/trade forum for some real bargains on gently used stamping supplies!

Let me know if you need help with anything.

Hi Rachel; I'm from Nevada too and this is a great and very friendly site. There is always someone to answer any questions you have.

Hi from NYC!
Well one suggestion I might make is look in the gallery here. See which cards interest you. Many have the supplies listed or link to their blogs where they tell you what they did.

You may start to notice that you particularly like the styles of some companies over others...and then go visit those company sites and see if you are loving them.

For cute you could try Lawn Fawn, Whipper Snapper, Mama Elephant, Penny Black, House Mouse for starters.

You will need some supplies no matter what...
here are some discussions about it to get you started. You tube is fantastic for discussing card making 101, or how to use particular products. I am in there constantly.

Hi Rachel! It is nice to meet you. If you have Cricut machine and use Design Space, I have created a few cut files for card making.
You are welcome to cut these card templates for personal use.
