Editorial Reviews

Expression Magazine, January/February 2004

What I loved about this DVD is the lack of product promotion. What I didn't like was that it ended.

5.0 out of 5 stars Best stamping instruction product ever!, August 6, 2003

This review is from: Stamp Art Inspirations with MaryJo McGraw (DVD)

I've purchased dozens of stamping videos, and even a DVD (which was only a video recorded onto a DVD), but this is the best I've ever gotten. No talking heads and no distance shots of the project. You get to see MaryJo's face a couple of times, but the rest of the time you are looking right over her shoulder and seeing EXACTLY what she's doing. It's a true DVD, too--you can stop and skip around and link between gallery pieces and the instructions at any time. AND there's a really funny segment of outtakes, so you can see that MaryJo has moments where her stamping gets away from her, just like the rest of us!
The projects are great--a lot of variety from complex items to simple fast cards, and I learned a lot about some products I've had around but never used before.
You have to get this one!

5.0 out of 5 stars Hoping for more stamping DVDs like this..., August 7, 2003

By 

Purnima (Colorado Springs, CO United States) - See all my reviews

This review is from: Stamp Art Inspirations with MaryJo McGraw (DVD)

This was great, especially if you need to have your stamping classes at home. Mary Jo's presentations have a lot of clarity and a very relaxed approach to creativity. Since I rarely get to see people actually doing techniques, I really enjoyed watching the processes happening in such detail since it was longer than the videos I've seen. The DVD format gives a lot of flexibility in viewing and Mary Jo has a friendly presence as she provides numerous tips along with the project at hand. I hope Page Sage will produce more in this line of product.

5.0 out of 5 stars A must-have for any rubber stamper, March 8, 2005

This review is from: Stamp Art Inspirations with MaryJo McGraw (DVD)

MaryJo starts out by showing some basic techniques...how to re-ink a stamp pad, how to ink a stamp, etc. She then eases us into stuff that looks complicated at first, but once she shows you how to do it, it is really all very easy!

Her explanations are very clear, and you can always see exactly what she is doing as she explains it.

I have several of MaryJo's books, but I find it easier to learn a new technique by actually watching it being done. Someday, I hope to take a class with MaryJo, but until then, this DVD is a close second. It is well worth the money!
