Join us and learn how to design and create your own set of stamps! These stamps can be used from mini prints, card making, to scrapbooking, to using them on any offcut you can find!
We will be focusing on creating 2-4 small designs and carving them out on a rubber linoleum block with carving tools by hand. This will challenge you to think of your design with inverted colors and you will learn how to use hand tools to carve the design yourself, line by line. Once complete, everyone will get the opportunity to print their designs with a variety of methods.
Join us in learning how to take an image you design and turn it into a stamp that will allow you to print it again and again.
