This kit is really nice. It had alot of very high quality stamps. It has about everything you need to make some very attractive cards. I didn't order it until right before Christmas so I will be saving it for next Christmas. It has instructions that look like they will be easy to follow & the kit shows you several examples of cards you can make. I am rather craft challenged but this kit looks like even I can turn out some great looking cards.

thi is like a kids kit. i wanted a higher quality card making kit but looks like cheap printed papers on thin stock like xmzs wrap (the cheap kind). I will use this for card backing paper just for the designs. the stamos are pretty good and the embellishments leave you wishing you had not bought the kit.

The clear stamps in the kit is worth the price of the kit. I know I'm going to have a lot of fun making my Christmas cards this year. I've already started and know I will enjoy making all the cards. Thank you for making a kit like this available on Overstock.com.

Wow! After getting my shipment of "Cardmaker's Ultimate Christmas Stamping Kit", I was thoroughly impressed with everything. If I were to get the paper alone, it would have cost $30.00. The three sets of stamps would have cost $30.00. But, no...not only did I get stamps and paper, but many other emblishments that gave the cards a sophisticated look, not childish at all. The card designs were awesome and simple to achieve. I highly recommend this kit!
I thought that everything would be separate sheets of paper as shown, instead it was a "block" that VERY quickly fell apart. Also it said instructions were included on cardmaking, which I was very much looking forward to since I am just starting with it, but these instructions were part of the "block" and weren't even together (in front and back pages), and overall were pretty useless. The buttons/etc and ribbons each came in their own packets, but because the ribbons are so squished they would probably need to be ironed before they could be used. The tags, inner card saying, etc were also disappointing as many of them were plain black and white (which would have been fine except it looked like they should have been in color due to different shadings of gray) and seemed to be on rather flimsy paper. Maybe this is normal... I'm not really sure since this is my first cardmaking kit, but it was disappointing. For those of you who want to see better images of the stamps, they are from the brand "Hot Off The Press" and are titled- 'winter swirls,' 'christmas words,' and 'christmas art.' It took me a long time to figure out where they were from and what they were, but at least now if others see this review it can save them some time. I suppose overall this was still a good deal, considering how expensive stamps and paper, etc can get. But truthfully, I am completely underwhelmed and a bit disappointed. It did arrive in a very nice shipping box though and everything was nice and safe.
If you are doing Christmas cards but have left it to the last minute, I suggest you pick up (or have shipped) this kit. It has just about everything you need to not only get started, but to finish, a wealth of cards. Paper, stamps, ribbon, embellishments are all included. It I had only one wish, it would have been for more embellishments, but the paper enclosed as well as the ideas are plentiful. I've already told several of my friends who are into cards about it!
I was very pleased when I received this. It had more stuff then I expected. It is awesome.
So surprised by how much stuff was in this kit and all very excellent quality. It is a very good price for everything you get in the kit. Can't wait to get started on my Christmas cards.
Just to get the stamps at this price is amazing! Beautiful papers and embellishments. Lots of card ideas included. I can't wait to start making cards with this kit!
Absolutely loved this Card Kit! I live in a very remote area,so getting to a Craft Store is hard,now that Fall is upon us,the roads can be treacherous!! Thanks,for this Card Kit...now my Crafting has gone one notch higher.I love how all the embellishments,quotes,ribbons,are all there...all you do is add your Creativity,they even add Card Ideas!!! Do you have some for Birthdays,Easter,etc.
I was so excited when I opened my card kit. It was so much more then I expected. The instructions were so easy to understand. The cards I have made from the kit are beautiful. I feel anyone who orders this kit will love it. I already ordered more. Thank you for such a wonderful Kit.
Anyone who loves Hot Off the Press products like I do knows what a GREAT value this kit is! So many color combos and paper choices...and HOTP ALWAYS has directions for projects...in this case cards...included with their products so you have inspiration to get started. The clear stamps are awesome...HELLO..."3" sheets of stamps...that alone is worth the purchase price. Love it, love it, love it!!!!!!!!!
