I saw! Then got sad because the shipping will be $13 to Canada pushing the total $43 which would be about $63 Canadian  Unfortunately too much for one stamp in my budget. Sigh. |

needtime2scrap where are you in canada? i can lend you mine. i have been waiting and watching and i ordered enough (mega stamp, 2 colour theory albums, page protectors, adhesive) to get free shipping and the exchange rate makes my toes curl but i am now officially done with sc (not even going to go there to be tempted anymore). onward then…

That would be fun! I'm in Northern Alberta so not sure if it would work. It might be worth it to put in a big enough order to get free shipping!

That is one pricey stamp huh? Its pretty cool though. Is it worth it? I bought it last year and have used it on several layouts. It's been very worth it to me. It's definitely too big for some pages, but I've used it a lot and expect to continue using it. Of course it is especially great when you want to make the date a significant part of the page. I used it on my title page for 2016. You can check out my process video here. |

Haha, that mega stamp is a monster! I bought it when it was originally released and I got it with my bundle so shipping costs were not a problem (could it have been preview without extra shipping even?). I love the huge size, it's so cool. But it's not too easy to change date/month etc. The wheels are not easy to turn. I use a linen towel, otherwise my fingers will hurt.

Regular roller stamps hurt my hands, too! I wish they didn't have serrated wheels. |

That is one pricey stamp huh? That was my first thought! It's cool, but I'm not sure if it's $30 and can't use a coupon cool. |

I have the one from amazon, and I love it. It is unavailable right now though.

I was surprised by the price, too. I'm quite frugal about my scrap spending these days, though. I can't imagine using it on a lot of layouts so I'd rather print the date using a large typewriter font to get a similar effect. You wouldn't be able to control placement as well but that's ok with me.

I think I'd be hesitant to buy from Studio Calico based on the 200+ page on this board.  |

This was in "my to be notified" and so I ordered it. I'll let you know when I receive it - but had heard a lot of good things about it before and think it will be fun. Though I did think it was quiet pricy.

Uh, I don't get it. How is that different from stamps you get at an office store? Seems like many of these offer the same thing: date stamps |

Here is a comparison with the Heidi Swapp date stamp. Why will no one post a side by side with a regular date stamp? Can't find one on Google. Attachments:

Patter I actually did see your picture on Google, but since it's not the SC mega stamp I didn't know they stamp the same size.

Unfortunately too much for one stamp in my budget. Sigh.
