Are you hoping to find versatile Calendar-themed stamps use in your planner layouts, bullet journal (BUJO) spreads or scrapbooking layouts?
If so, the Day-To-Day clear stamp set by Maggie Holmes might be just what you need.
The Maggie Holmes Round Trip clear stamp set includes stamp images that you can use for making a variety of paper craft projects. Some of these images are specifically planner and calendar themed, and others are more generic, which means that you can also use them in projects that are not related to planners, calendars or bullet journals.
For me, these versatile stamp images were a large part of this set’s appeal. I love the pretty floral stamp image that is included with this set, and I use it frequently on all kinds of projects besides just planner layouts.
How I’ve Been Using Each of These Stamps in My Paper Craft Projects
December Daily Christmas Projects
These stamps work perfectly for making December Daily Christmas-themed projects.
They are also ideal for using in everyday planner layouts and scrapbooking layouts.
The Quality of This Stamp Set
Please be aware that this is an acrylic stamp set, NOT a photopolymer stamp set.
Acrylic is typically cheaper than photopolymer, and it also tends to be of lower quality.
So, if you want to spend your money on the highest possible quality stamp sets, you should be aware that this isn’t it. In that case, you should really look elsewhere.
That said, I think the quality of these stamps is good enough to justify buying and using them. I haven’t yet had a problem with these stamps, and I’ve subjected them to a lot of abuse:
- They’ve spent several nights in below-freezing conditions when they were being transported in a moving van.
- They’ve spent time in hot, 100+ degree desert conditions, sometimes boxed up in a storage unit, and sometimes riding around in an RV that isn’t temperature-controlled.
- I’ve used them a LOT.
I was amazed that they’re still usable after being subjected to those temperature extremes, but they are.
So I’ll be the last person to complain about their quality, personally. If they stop working later today, I won’t whine about it, because I’ve already got more than my money’s worth out of them.
But there are “stamp snobs” out there who insist on only buying high-quality photopolymer stamps. If that’s you, you shouldn’t buy these stamps. They’re not what you want, if you’re a “stamp snob”.
The Verdict: I Highly Recommend Maggie Holmes’ Day-To-Day Clear Stamp Set to Other Crafters
Overall, I think the Day-to-Day clear stamp set is a fantastic bargain for the money you’ll spend on it.
I use ALL of the stamps in this stamp set, and I think they are extremely useful. I think you’re likely to love them, too.
