Sweet Stamp Shop is a small business out of sunny southern California that features hand drawn clear polymer stamp sets made here in the USA! The shop was started in 2011 by Nicole and Jacob Rixon with the idea that there was a space in the industry for fresh, hand drawn, clear stamps. Sweet Stamp Shop is a stamp company dedicated to creating fun and unique stamps that are easy to use and fun to color. We know how important it is to you to know the latest techniques and we are excited to share our knowledge with you. Whether on YouTube, Facebook, or a well placed 'tweet' ... we'll help you stay on top of the trends!

Lil' Inker Designs with ag designs is the creative venture of two high school friends Laura Pryor, founder and owner of Lil' Inker Designs, and Ariana Grant, professional graphics artist and owner of ag designs. Laura has a creative vision, but Ariana makes these visions come to life!
They say that necessity is the mother of all invention and that's so true for Lil' Inker Designs as our very first release, Sentiment Flags, was born from the need to have a flag-ended die for sentiments for our own crafty projects! One year later we have a full line of fun and innovative quality products from Pinwheels to Fringe Flowers! Our stamps and dies are made using only the best quality merchandise this industry has to offer and all of our products are proudly manufactured in the USA! Please visit our brand new web site at www.lilinkerdesigns.com!
