Video Transcript

"Hi! This is Stepanie. I'm going to talk about adding alphabet stamps or layouts. Alphabet stamps are a really handy tool because you can use them with all different colors and they're a good way to add titles to your pages. You can also use them as monograms. You can get the really small ones and use them even in your journaling. Just use those in place of writing. It's more laborious, but it's a cute look. the alphabet stamps are really easy to use. Some people get really hung up though on the fact that it's hard to line them up and get them exactly right. The look of stamps is a homemade, kind of funky look, so you don't want them lined up. If you're really, really, really hung up on having them lined up, you can put a piece of paper down and line them up just to make sure you get the very bottom of the stamp. You really don't need to do that. I've got an orange kind of paper and a brown ink. I'm just going to show you that you can do a quick fall title. I'm going to make the title be fall. F. Just rub the stamp gently on the pad, twist it a little bit, press it down. I'm not even trying to line them up, and it's going to look just fine. You can make some of them a little to the side. It kind of just gives it a fun look. That's why stamps are forgiving in that way. As you can see, it's just a fun kind of title. If I I want to, I can just tear the edges and it gives it a more look of the fall with the torn pages. You can add ink to the sides and just kind of dress it up. That just gives a neat little title with stamps. You can do that with unmounted stamps, unmounted alphabet stamps, any kind of stamp that you want. Don't be all hung up on making them line up. Just use them and have a good time."
