Stamp Carving Workshop - Friday, February 9th, 1pm-4pm
Join me at Whim-So-Doodle for a stamp carving adventure where I will teach you the ins and outs of carving your own rubber stamps.
Hand-carved rubber stamps help you add your own unique mark to your work.
We’ll go over the basics, including tools, cutting techniques, creating stamp designs and transferring them onto your rubber. We’ll make several stamps in class, focusing on basic designs, word stamps and you may start to carve your own alphabet set. There will be carved stamps from my own stamps available for you to use, or you can design your own!
