I was a little intimidated by this stamp set but found some tips and it’s actually really easy to make the calendars. I love that you can circle the birthday to personalize it.
In the video, I’ll show you how to use this stamp set for months with 30 & 31 days and different days for the 1st of the month. The best tip I found was in a comment on someone’s video. The days for a week will fit perfectly across your stamp pad so you really don’t even need to do a lot of masking. Check out the video for a demonstration.
