Good Fortune - 4" x 6" Clear Photopolymer Stamp Set & *FREE* matching cut files - Retails for $15

Our Good Fortune 4" x 6" clear photopolymer stamp set is sure to be a favorite.  When you want to wish your favorite person good luck, a happy birthday or send your love, this stamp set will say it all.  I am always looking for sets that allow me to create fun masculine cards and I illustrated this set with this in mind.  The 8 ball measures: 2" diameter; Fortune cookie measures: 1 1/4" diameter; Banner measures: 3/8" x 2 1/2"; Wishing You Good Fortune sentiment measures: 3/16" x 2 1/4"
 

Here is a very simple 4" x 4" card that I created using this set.  I really wanted the image and sentiment to stand out.  It is a bit hard to tell from the photo, but I added some foam adhesive and curved the fortune cookie paper a bit before I adhered it to the card.  I love the 3D look it created.

What's Up? - 4" x 3" Clear Photopolymer Stamp Set & *FREE* matching cut files - Retails for $8

Our 4" x 3" What's Up? clear photopolymer stamp set may be small in size, but has so many possibilities.  Combine the giraffe and accessories included in this set to create a fun and "hip" greeting.  The giraffe image measures: 3 5/8" x 1 1/4"; Hipster Giraffe sentiment measures: 3" x 5/16"; 
Large cloud measures: 1 1/8" x 3/4"

Mr. Giraffe is our other Hipster being released this month.  Guess what?  You can use many of the accessories on both animals from both sets!  Even more bang for your buck.  I have many other $8 sets in mind for this Hipster series (along with fun accessories) and if the Hippo and Giraffe become popular, you will be seeing more Hipster animals in the coming months.  The sentiment I used for this card is definitely tongue in cheek.  I debated and debated whether to include it in the set as I didn't want it to be read as mean spirited.  In the end, I hope that people read it as a fun pun on being tall, which is the intent.  I stamped the giraffe and some of his accessories and then colored them in with markers.  After adding the patterned scarf, I think he turned out SO sweet.
