I watched Jennifer McGuire make friendship bracelet cards with a new product from Concord & 9th and thought the little stamp and dies would also be useful for making your own tiny alphabets in whatever colors you're using - stamp on the patterned paper scraps from your layout or matching cs. It's kind of a pain that the dies come with the friendship bracelet pieces as well, since that increases the price, but they have some nostalgic vibes. concordand9th.com/products/best-friend-vibes-bundle I like that they have extras of some of the letters on the stamp and the confetti star and heart shapes cut 5 with each pass, helpful for embellishing. JMcG only uses the round ones but the little squares reminded me of the tile alphabets I used to use on PL. www.jennifermcguireink.com/2024/04/personalized-handmade-card-ideas.htmlWould you use this for making your own alpha stickers? Or does everyone still have stash of stickers they're happy to use? |

I would totally use this on scrapbooking! However, I already own the waffle flower ones that make larger letter tiles,
and a set that makes small tile letters, and I don't use them as much as I should. But small circles would be a lovely addition.

But small circles would be a lovely addition. Oh, I must've missed the Waffle Flower ones. JMcG must not have paraded them across my screen  I think I'd have to make a bunch at once so they were ready to go when I wanted them, and then my micro-organizing brain would want each letter in a little organized tray and pretty soon I'd be driving myself around the twist! |

I think I'd have to make a bunch at once so they were ready to go when I wanted them That's what I did with the small tile letters. I stamped different colours of them on extra thick CS, then added wide Sookwang tape (double sided) to the back BEFORE I die cut them. When I die cut, the adhesive backing (mostly) kept them together, and I put them in smaller baggies and can easily see what letters I have and just peel them off the backing like you would with stickers. They do sometimes fall apart a bit, which makes it hard to search for your letters, but the tape backing helps a lot. |

I would have bought that alphabet stamp/die set in a heartbeat if it didn’t have the bracelet die too. i can’t justify the price since I wouldn’t use half of what’s in it.

I would not be interested in super tiny. I feel like I have seen stamps and dies like this before. Not Waffle Flower, but Elle's Studio The Stamp Market called Alpha Cuts. They are rectangles, though, in two sizes.

That’s really cute and I could see myself thinking I’d use it. The price is too high for me to be tempted.

I have something very similar from years ago. I think it was from PaperTreyInk. I thought it would be the best thing ever, and it probably is, but I would always just grab tiny letter stickers instead.
