 I saw it on Dearly Dee's video and it's just so amazing for recording distances, time, bday cards, so much! I can't believe Ali hasn't done one like this but I'm going to grab this baby. |

Ooh, those are nice!
The sheet of stamps is 6x8", but I wish they would place a ruler along the side to show exactly how tall the numbers are. I'm trash at estimating from pictures.
$25 is a little steep, but the set is one that would be useful forever, and for so many different layouts & cards.
TFS! šš

TFS! šš Yeah, I'm the biggest cheapskate on scrap stuff, but something like this I could use on a lot of projects, so I'll pay that price. I should have put in the link: citrustwistkits.com/collections/stamps/products/citrus-twist-6-x-8-all-about-the-numbers-stampI wish I could find some creative team projects, but their gallery hasn't been updated for a while  Here is a screenshot I took from the video.

Thatās absolutely the kind of stamp youād think AE wouldāve designed at some point but hasnāt. I can see so many uses for that. Iām thinking of people documenting road trips, hikes and runs/races as well as daily life stuff like temperatures (F and C!) So smart! Kids growing too...

CT posts on Instagram a lot, and there are several layouts using these stamps. Now Iām putting those stamps on my wish list.

It's a cool idea although the execution is lacking. Centimetre is abbreviated as "cm", no period but you can always cut it off. However, miles but no kilometres? A simple "km" would have sufficed. That alone puts this set in the no-buy category for me.
It's such a shame. There's always something important missing when catering to the non-US folks. I hope this wasn't an oversight from an actual metric system person who was asked for input from Citrus Twist.

I am not sure the font stands the test of time as much as the subject does.

Big oversight that they should have added for trip documenting in EU, Canada, etc. |

I hope this wasn't an oversight from an actual metric system person who was asked for input from Citrus Twist. They also abbreviated ft. That is really old school to abbreviate a distance. With all of the marathons (short and long), yes, you would have thought km would have been added. |

Just when I tell myself I am NOT allowed to buy anymore alpha or number stamps.  The price does seem high, but it is very versatile. |

Itās like the abbreviations were a half thought. Thereās both a Celsius and farenheit, why the need for the ātempā ? I would never use it. I donāt use my existing number stamps very much.

I saw this yesterday and immediately bought it. Never mind I hardly stamp, I had to have those numbers.

I didn't run a 10K, I ran a 1,000,000 cm. |

I love the content of the stamp but I wish the font was more basic and also not 'grungy' looking but overall the stamp idea itself is good!

Hey, I think it's great that they're forcing people to get creative. I didn't run a 10K, I ran a 1,000,000 cm. Oh, it's about to get even more creative: by most metric system countries' unit conventions, you just ran 1 cm. (no comma used for grouping 3 digits together but quite a few of those countries using the comma as a decimal marker instead  but some use the dot - yep! - as the three digit separation marker whereas some just don't use anything besides a non-breaking space) Are ye confused feeling creative yet?  |
