I am looking for recommendations for a set or two of tiny alphabet stamps to use in Project Life/divided page protector layouts. I really like the small set that was included in one of the Studio Calico add-on kits for their July Elmwood Park kit, and I am looking to find one.
In the meantime I would like to find some other options. I am talking small here, something that would allow me to stamp titles and subtitles on labels, etc. I prefer acrylic stamps so I can see where I am stamping...TIA for any recommendations! | |

I use the tiny alphas by Basic Grey, the Simple Stories Sn@p alphas, and my fave are the October Afternoon Mini Market stickers. |

Thanks, I already checked 2Ps but I need something smaller than what is carried here. One of the Lawn Fawn sets might work if it is small enough and I requested to be notified of a reorder on that one, but I am hoping there might be other brands out there that make the smaller stamps...

Thanks for the replies!
AJPea, is the Lawn Fawn set you use one of the smaller sets carried by 2Ps? I requested notification on a couple of the sets that look pretty small, it's just hard to judge size from the photos, and I haven't found size info for the stamps themselves online so far...thanks! | |

I like the typewriter font set from Graphic 45--even the container is cute! |

Lawn Fawn alphas are excellent. Multiples of frequently used letters.....and they are cut to match up or line up so the spacing works really well. Which one are you looking for? I have a few and can measure for you if I have it.

Jave Jones: the Lawn Fawn set that I have is called Smitty's ABCs. I bought it from a brick and mortar store about a year ago.
The capital letters are 3/8" tall and the lower case are 1/4". The letters are on rectangular pieces so they are easy to place side by side on an acrylic block.
I hope you find what you are searching for!!! | |

I like Martha Stewart Customized Stamp sets. There's at least three different fonts. | |
