" Hi! I am Shelly Cordsen from Expert Village.com. I would like to talk to you now about value set of stamps. That is a set of stamps that has many stamps, as many as 32 and you will find a stamp in here that will be for every occasion. You have Halloween, you have birthday, you have Valentines, Christmas, Halloween on and on. You have this one set you can make a card for any occasion, any holiday. This particular set is what we call an open set that means it is open. You stamp it with black and you will have to color that in, in someway. You can stamp it with a color if you would like and then it is just in color like you would see on this sample right here. We also have what we call close stamps, solid stamps. Same set but in a solid version where you just use one ink pad, you don’t have to use any other method to color. So if I wanted a black gecko I just stick it in my black and there I have a solid, I can make him green, whichever color I want. That is called a solid set. But for value purposes stamp for all season and all occasion one set these value small sets are the way to go and I will show you how to make pages and then turn them into cards such as we have here, Valentines, Halloween, birthday, Valentines day, a baby card, Easter. All of these were made from this stamp set right here and a variety of methods of coloring. "
