A little while back I purchased this cool stamp after seeing it on Decor8.
I was out of thank you cards and tried the stamp with both black & green ink (bottom left) but preferred the effect paint gave instead (top left). I am no stamping guru as you can clearly tell by my average stamping - but I say it all adds to the 'handmade' appeal right? I have no idea if the paint is really bad for my stamp? As long as I clean it well I am assuming it should be OK? Feel free to give me some advice!!
I also tried making my first stamp by carving a block of rubber (ezy carve printing block) I bought here. Do you recognise the emblem?
It still needs a bit of work! Oh and I will reveal what I made on last weeks MCS.... next week!
See what everyone else is making over at Kirsty's?
stamping is SO much fun! im doing some today too... just not with gorgeous stamps like yours!!
ReplyDeleteam a big fan of stamping. bought some really lovely ones few months ago. haven't get the chance to give them a go so far. btw, which ink are you using?
ReplyDeleteThe cards look great. Stamping is so simple, but super effective
ReplyDeletelove making stamps! looks like you are having some fun and success :)
ReplyDeleteYour cards look lovely! The black and the green look wonderful. I just bought some of that rubber so it is great to see it in action. I'm planing some tea towels for Chrissie presents. Wishing you a wonderful weekend :)
ReplyDeleteThat is a great stamp! Colours of green and the black look great too. I can see that stamp getting loads of use.
ReplyDeleteIn love with how the cards turned out, both the green and black!
ReplyDeleteTruly Inspiring!
