Did you make the stamp in the picture? It's gorgeous!

Dang it! I want to learn how to do these! I wish I knew how, I'd love to join. If anyone wants to do a private swap and send me a handmade one, I'd love to trade for something else! Even from my Etsy shop! PM me if interested.

That stamp above is WAY adorable!!!

Yup, the stamp in the picture was one that I had made. Thanks so much for the compliments.

There are also great tutorials on atlasquest.com. don't let the materials scare you. Decent stamps can be made with an eraser and a modified pencil. I will be watching this one for sure.
