I think this set has sooo much potential. Let's share ways to use the set. I will go first. If you stamp them on bright colors and punch out the centers they make a cute Lifesaver candy card. They work fabulously with the Designer Label punch. Also, cut out the center and tie a ribbon to the side. They make darling Christmas tree ornament stamps. Cut out the centers and replace with different images and you can make them fit many occasions. They make really cute wheels on Loads of Love if you want to make the truck into a "monster" truck. Share yours!!
I just got another idea and it worked so well. I would upload but every time for the last number of days when I try it says "server too busy". Anyway, those little circles with the center punched out make the most darling tire swings hanging from a tree!
I don't have a photo, but I love the way Riveting and Circle of Friendship works on the back of the square flap envelopes. Just use a circle punch to punch out half the circle on the flap, then stamp in the circle. Too cute!

I took a photo of what I was talking about with the envelopes. We made these at my friend Kat's stamp camp recently. It can be done with the triangle flap, but does not look nearly as nice.
Great ideas! I've been wondering the same myself! Here's my one and only contribution :???:. I've done this but haven't made a card with it yet.
Emboss two layers of metallic embossing powder on then end 2 inches of a small strip* of card and then stamp Riveting into the wet embossing powder. Punch it out with the circle punch (centre too, if desired) and you have quite a convincing metal rivet.
*I found a long strip of card, slightly wider than the circle punch, works best. Just dip the end into the powder. Keep it narrow so you don't waste too much powder, and keep it long enough to manoeuvre into the circle punch.
One layer of powder didn't seem deep enough; three was far too deep. Which is why I settled on two.
yes, 1 1/8 for the outer. Not sure of the inner as the one I have isn't SU. I think it's about a quarter of an inch (I'm not too good with inches, sorry).
Those are AWESOME cards! I tried mine and just couldn't get anythink I liked. Maybe I need to start by caseing a few to get the creative juices flowing!
