Aladine 03918 Stampo Planner Page Months

I ordered three styles of this stamp - this one, monthly, as well as weekly and yearly, although those two have failed to show and have been refunded by Amazon.this stamp however is a nice stamp - great quality, and stamps a good impression even on copier paper, and really ought to have 5 stars. It is also attached to a thick foam backing pad which helps with stamping, but have found after placing the stamp down, using a large acrylic plate on top will help with transferring the image onto the card or paper. This works well with the main stamp which is large, but the smaller stamps (which store within the surround of the main stamp), can be fiddly when using especially if you have dexterity problems, but do give good impressions.Be warned that these stamps will not fit in any hinged style stamp presses, but guess should work on the plate type that is lowered onto your card stockHowever, my main gripe with this set is that the main stamp although designed to be used with A5 pages is actually much smaller than the height of the card, at 6” tall, whereas an A5 sheet is 8” tall - that’s a 2”/50mm difference and I feel is wasting a large area of the page, making the design layout much less useful than it could be. Width is correct for A5.Another “problem” is that the wording is in French and part of the main stamp design. ok, admittedly it was designed and made for a French audience, but being sold internationally it could have detached the wording and included suitable languages for the market in which it is being sold - IE English here in the UK. These could then have been stored within the dead space of the different sectionsOverall, a great high quality stamp, but sadly I wouldn’t really recommend due to the wrong A5 sizing
