I have been stamping for years, and I thought I knew it all. This book gave me some new ideas and techniques that I am eager to try, along with some new twists on some old ideas. Maria gives good basic information on tools and supplies. Her suggestion of mixing your own embossing powders, along with the recipies to make some wonderful combinations is quite novel. I had fun trying it, with great results. This book will inspire you to grab that heat gun and start stamping!

This book is chock full of valuable information. The author is very candid and thorough. Great information for starting or continuing in the area of Rubber Stamping for profit. The business section of the book contains answers to just about any question you may have. Every aspect of rubber stamping is covered here - from just for fun, to selling your finished product, to designing and teaching - with comprehensive information about each point.

Rubber Stamping For Fun & Profit is the best book I have read on rubber stamping. The book is easy to read and understand. It is full of tips and ideas. The business part of the book is excellent! I have been stamping for many years, and I sell a lot of my stamp projects. This book is very helpful in teaching you how to profit from your projects. I would recommend this book to ALL stampers and crafters.It is a great book for the beginner crafters, and the advanced crafters alike! Buy this book! You won't be disappointed!

This book covers the business side of rubberstamping in just the way I needed. Other books tell you how to start a small/home business, but this one looks at it from the crafting and stamping angles. She explains the Angel Stamp policy, which I had trouble finding anywhere else. My only complaint is that I paid for expedited shipping and the book was shipped three days later than promised.

Thought it would at least have some good card samples or tips on how to make great cards to gain that profit. Maybe i was expecting the wrong thing. But it doesn't have what I was looking for.

This is a great book but for very different reasons than what I ordered it for. It goes a long way in helping you with all the inevitable details that one has to think of when one starts a business - for this I give High Praise. What I thought I was ordering was a book that went into the details of making professional "business type" stamps, the ones that are self inking (or not) - this book is fantastic if your looking to turn a hobby into a business - for they go to great lengths to prepare you for that. It is not the book to teach you to do it in an "industrial strength" manner. I wish you all a great adventure into this - I can be fun! And very rewarding!

This is a terrific book. I've read alot of Maria Narius columns over the years and her easy to uderstand style of writing comes through with flying colors. There's so many things explained that I questions for and more in all topics she covers.
