I am a big fan of making and using my own stamps in collages.
The second image shows a tiny bit of my collection, most of them are usable on both sides. On the left corner you see some of the materials I use, such as speedball, cork, linoleum but most of all I use erasers, whatever and wherever I find them.
The green stamp is the same kind of stamp like the yellow eraser and was made by my granddaughter about a year ago ..... it runs in the family;))
Wonderful stamps, Jo! You inspire me to make some of my own. The woman at the top is elegant, striking, her face full of fraught expectation, as if she were hanging on the lip of a very important moment. I love it that you placed her off-center.
ReplyDeleteP.S. Did you mean to say "Stamps in all sizes"?
Thanks Fi for your lovely comment. Yes you're right about sizes, that's because English is not my nature language ;))
DeleteJosephine, these are wonderful and the fact that they are hand-cut (not "perfect" looking commercial stamps) is great. I especially like how you created the pattern on her dress with different stamps...very clever!
ReplyDeleteThanks Lynn, I don't have commercial stamps, it's much more fun to create your own ;))
DeleteInteresting work.
