Here’s an introduction to clear stamps sold at 100-yen shops.
They come in various types—planner, shipping, and more—and if you use them well, they can be handy for making stamp cards, too.
For example, if you cut out the calendar frames, they can serve as stamp borders, and some shipping stamps include messages that encourage repeat visits.
There are also decorative stamps that seem perfect for the design area on the front.
If you’re not making a large quantity, why not use stamps to create them easily?

You may want to make a stamp card, but some people aren’t confident in designing or drawing.
In that case, why not try using stickers or stamps? You can find all kinds of cute stickers at 100-yen shops, and you can easily order custom stamps with your shop name and address from online stores.
Instead of designing from scratch, you just combine materials like you’re decorating, so it’s surprisingly easy.
It’s not ideal for mass production, but if you have a computer and a scanner, you could scan the card you made as an image and print copies.
Helpful for childcare! Stamp rally card
Here’s an idea for a hand-drawn stamp rally card.
Draw a tree on construction paper and leave round spaces among the leaves where fruit stamps can be placed.
It’s designed so that the picture is completed once all the stamps are collected, which really motivates people to gather them.
You can also change the design depending on the stamps you use, offering a variety of ways to enjoy it.
This is a recommended idea for those who want to add a creative twist instead of using a standard stamp card.
Stamp card with a Scandinavian/Nordic taste
Here’s an idea for a simple yet cute, Scandinavian-style stamp card.
In this design, the stamp spots are represented by the numbers 1 to 10.
The numbers aren’t set in a font—they’re each hand-drawn and designed individually.
The motifs are flowers and trees, giving it a very lovely look.
If you want to create a Scandinavian-style card, definitely use this as inspiration.
If you’d like to produce many cards while preserving the charm of hand-drawn elements, it’s a good idea to digitize the parts, arrange them in a design app, and print them.
Summer Festival Stamp Card
At school and community summer festivals, stamp cards are sometimes handed out for visiting the booths and stalls.
They’re convenient because you can see at a glance what kinds of shops are there, and kids enjoy collecting the stamps.
This is an idea for a summer festival stamp card.
It features illustrations related to the stalls and looks very cute.
Everything here is handwritten, but if you’re comfortable using a computer, you could also search free material sites, download assets, and combine them to make one.
Reward stamp card
Here’s an idea for reward cards that are perfect for motivating kids.
The card has the days of the week and the tasks you want them to work on, with spaces to stamp when they’re completed.
It looks like collecting three fully stamped cards can be exchanged for a “request ticket.” Since one card covers a week, if they keep it up for three weeks, they get to make one request.
You can choose any tasks you like, and it’s a great idea to customize the design to match your child’s preferences.
Cutely decorate cards with dots!
If your stamp card feels too plain, why not try a cute makeover with a dot pen? Press firmly to make large circles, or gently touch the tip to create small ones.
You can draw lines too, and adjust their thickness, so try combining lines and circles to come up with various designs.
If you’re short on ideas, start by copying and adapting these examples.
Adding more colors will broaden your design options even more!
Point card made with construction paper
If you’re looking to create stamp cards at low cost, why not try making them with construction paper and your home printer? In this idea, the design is created using Canva, a free design app.
Once you design the front and back in the app, export them as images, paste them into Pages or Word, and print.
You might worry that it could look cheap, but using thick or textured construction paper will make it look just fine.
Give it a try and use this as a reference.
Stamp card made with a hanko (seal)
When making stamp cards, many people use stamps as part of the design.
But if you turn the design itself into a stamp, you can easily produce lots of stamp cards, right? Here’s an idea for a stamp card that’s completed with just a single press—pop! Making a stamp yourself can be quite a task, so it’s a good idea to ask an online shop that creates custom stamps.
While you can’t do detailed color schemes, this is a recommended idea for anyone who wants to make stamp cards easily and at low cost.
Create a stamp card with the Canva app
If you want to design a stamp card using your iPhone or iPad, why not try the app Canva? It offers free templates and assets, so once you get the hang of it, creating a design is easy.
After designing in Canva, you can print it with a home printer or outsource it to a print shop.
Canva also has plenty of paid assets, so if you want a design that perfectly matches your vision, you can use those as well.
