C'mon! March is National Craft Month! And we have FOUR GIVEAWAYS lined up this month to inspire you. First up, we're featuring metal stamping -- the heart of Beaducation's business.
Maybe you're stuck in a rut with your jewelry making, unsure of how to take things to the next level. Adding stamped jewelry to your beadwork or wirework is a fast and easy way to enhance your projects without starting over from scratch. Or, perhaps you already love metal stamping and want to lure a reluctant beading buddy to the dark side. This week's giveaway would be a great gift for a new stamper!
What you'll get:
We're also including a Stamping on Metal Starter Kit. This handy dandy kit includes:
- Economy Block Uppercase Letter & Number Stamp Set 1/8"
- 1.25mm hole punch
- 3" x 3" copper sheet to practice your stamping
- An assortment of blanks
- An assortment of 18g jump rings
- 18" 2mm copper ball chain and clasp
- 1 finished Sterling chain
- 1 Industrial Sharpie pen
- 2 pro polish pads - for shining up your metal blanks
- 8 page instruction booklet
This prize pack is worth $101.95!
Let's get the party started! To enter the giveaway, leave a comment about what you'd do with this stuff if you won it. Already have Lisa's book? Tell us your favorite project. For an additional entry, share this blog post on your personal Facebook page and leave a comment letting us know you did.
The lucky winner will be announced next Thursday -- at the same time as we reveal our second giveaway! Good luck!

I'd make necklaces for bday gifts for friends. THanks!
I would jump right it and start stamping!!
I'd start stamping! I think metal stamping is the coolest part of making jewelry; but, I'm intimidated.
Thank you for a chance to win.
I am taking part in Craft Month, & blogging about it daily,(that is a big deal for me).I would read the book, & add the supplies to my stash. I work a lot in copper for my metalsmithing class
p/s ugh double captchas
I've been wanting to learn the art of metal stamping. If I won I would start making my own pendands and charms using blanks.1
I'd probably spend a good few hours just bashing words onto scrap metal *G*
I already have the book, and eventhough I haven't had the time or money to try this technique, I love the easy to understand instructions,and Lisa's helpful tips (not to mention the gorgeous eye candy).
My favorite piece is the Full Circle bracelet.
I would add a new area to my crafting addiction. Would be a blast!
I would love to start stamping and working with metal as I am also starting to make jewelry and this would be nice to add:)
I will share this on twitter♥
I have been wanting to give Stamping a try-but haven't had the extra funds to "branch out" just yet. :)
I did check out the book from the library and it looks like so much fun and totally right up my alley!
If I won-I have SO MANY Ideas for pendants I would love to make for myself-a stamped charm bracelet...oh, so many ideas-but NO materials to put them to use. :)
Thank you so much for the exciting chance to win. :)
I would take it my first metal stamping class! My local college is offering some jewelry making classes and I am singed up for their very first metal stamping class. I'm sooo excited I just can't hide it!
I would give the set to my daughter, who is 14, so that she could begin her own stamping journey. She loves to help out and stamp whenever she has free time and it would be wonderful for her.
I'm not even a new stamper, I'm just a wanna be stamper, so I would probably start with the instructions of the booklet.
Seeing that I'm fully stocked! Every spring my daughters school holds a raffle, I would donate it. Then sit back and watch the excitement on a young girls face who just found herself a fun new hobby!!!

I'd love to read Lisa's book! While I've stamped a few things here and there, I'm completely guessing, so I'd love to know if there are tips and tricks to getting more consistency. Thanks!
I just got my very first Beaducation order...full of blanks and a swirl stamp. I got here from reading Lisa's book from the library. I would expand my practice work to line up better and try making the simple band bracelets.
In addition to jewelry, I make hanging beaded window crystals. I would love to incorporate personalized messages on them! That would be SO COOOOOOOL!
Great giveaway...and I would love to share this with a buddy!
Posted to Facebook profile page.
Thanks!!
If I win I would make what we call "mother" necklaces for friends. I stamp the initials of the their children and add the birthstones of each child.
I have the book I love it! I made the leather cuff with stamped tab that is pictured on the book cover.
I am not a new stamper, so I have everything I need to make jewelry. That being said, my daughter is part of a Girl Scout troop that was started this year due to an increase in girls. I would donate the items in your giveaway to the troop so I could see 12 girls learn to make something fun.
My favorite project from the book is the basic hand stamped pendant. I am forever making these and giving them away to people I know who need a pick me up.
I WOULD MAKE INSPIRING JEWELRY
I have just gotten in to stamping and really want to try more things and materials and learn more. This set would be great to practice with as I love to work with copper but haven't tried stamping on it yet!

I would trade in my ink pads and paper for metal stamping! yahoo!!!
I would so love to learn this amazing technique and skill! I have been drooling over this book for a long time but haven't had the funds to add the stamps and other materials to my list. I would love to try the stamped cuff bracelet and stamping on rings as well!
Thank you for this opportunity! I started my jewellery making journey at beaducation and it has changed my life! Xo
I have posted it on my Facebook page :-)
I would love to learn metal stamping...How fun!!!!
I would like to try the stamped earring with the crisscross wires.
I have the book and would like to try making the ladder bracelet
i'd start out by designing a piece of jewelry for my son to give his potential prom date asking her to prom! :)
I would start stamping away! What an awesome prize pack!
I've done a little stamping but I'd love to get more practice and learn new techniques. I would love to win this package!
First off would be inspirational gifts to the family members who are currently facing some major health challenges.
An inspirational bead bracelet that I made myself is what helped me make it through cancer treatment. So I know a similar gift will help them
Would love to make stamped gifts!
I have the book (LOVE the book) and I adore all the projects...but if forced, I'd say my favorite are the stamped ladder bracelet, and the crown jewel necklace.
The project I'd like to do is a mother's day present for a good friend of mine -- a thick, credit-card sized piece of nickle or copper, stamped with funny things her son has said. That way she can carry it around in her wallet!
I can't wait to create a few wedding gifts (personalized charm bracelet and necklace) for our family and for hubby and I! Being from the Caribbean, I can't wait to use the Hibiscus stamp when it gets back in stock!
I would start incorporating more stamping in my work. Maybe I would start with a nice pair of earrings.
I would start stamping. I have been wanting to try this and just have not gotten started yet.
I have been wanting to try this. It looks like a lot of fun.
I would stamp continuously until overtaken by exhaustion.
I would stamp the night away! ...and the day ...and the night...
I shared this on my facebook, too!
Always wanted a copy of this book. I know it will be inspiring! I have a new idea to offer some custom mother's pendents with children's names after making a custom order for a client. I would love to explore that further and I think that this book would help me launch that! I know enough of how to do it but not the refining and I would like to learn that. Thanks for the chance!
Enjoy the day.

I'm just getting started with stamping, at least I'm hoping too! After seeing cool stamped jewelry while browsing craft sites, I found your site. I started thinking of things I could do. I saw your awareness ribbon stamp and immediately got an idea. My mother in law died from breast cancer at a young age. I want to make simple stamped jewelry to give away as incentives for people to join our Race for the Cure team, or as a fundraising incentive. I've already got my pink sharpie :) Now I need stamping supplies to get started on my idea!
Also, I have shared the post on my FB page.
I would enjoy getting better at stamping as I don't have many personal stamps to use and the insight from the book would be phenomenal!
I've shared this on my facebook page! :-) Thank you again for the opportunity to be involved in the giveaway!

I've got several orders for jewelry/earrings that need to be stamped. I'd love to win this to help me get them done. Plus, need a pick-me-up today. My dog got hurt and is at the vet getting her side stitched up. Cut it open on something. Waiting to hear how bad it is.
Just posted on my facebook page. http://facebook.com/KayzKreationzGlassKreationz or Kay Thomerson. Not sure which one.
I've been thinking that I should become really good at something - and this looks like a perfect creative outlet. I can see beautiful pieces with wonderful words of wisdom to inspire people. Please!

As a recent "empty-nester", I would like to expand my jewelry-making beyond beading. I would start incorporating stamped items into my beaded jewelry, and beads into stamped jewelry.
My Daughter and I just started stamping! I just ordered the medical alert stamp last week so we can add a tab to all of her jewlary - she is a type 1 diabetic and does not like to wear just the standard medical alert bracelets. This would book and supplies would give us plenty of ideas for gifts to make for our friends for hours of time to spend together.

This giveaway feels like a great addition to the beginning of my metalsmith journey. Still trying to figure out what I want to be when I grow up(at 44yrs)!
