Fun Vintage Melt Your Heart Snowman Rubber Stamp Carving

A new Winter themed rubber stamp carving, a 

vintage look snowman. Some times I

do a carving with a purpose in mind and this

one I wanted to use as a return address

stamp! It has a very strong wood cut feel to it. 
Sort of rustic and old timey feeling.

 I think I will also carve him with out

the name and address. 

I love snowmen and this version

just came through to my paper 

when drawing, and seemed to just say

'Here I am!' 

Athena and Rubber Stamp Chocolate Bunny, They Go Together, Right?

This rubber stamp carving is of the 

Greek Goddess Athena. Her classic Greek

features, and fancy hair and ornaments were

fun to carve into a rubber stamp.

I can see myself wanting to carve a wood

block of this someday.

This little 'chocolate' bunny just popped

into my head one day and begged me to carve it!

So, being a lover of folk art, that is the style

I chose for this little hand carved rubber stamp.

Plus Easter and bunnies are a favorite

thing around my household.

Please stop by my etsy shop and take a look

at my unique hand carved stamps. Maybe I could

even create a special one for you!

Soar Hand Carved Rubber Stamp

Made a birthday card for my son's

15th birthday. Decided I needed  a 

very large word stamp. So, of course, I carved a 

rubber stamp to fit the bill!

The way this card design came about is

kind of funny. I was throwing something away

when I noticed a VERY old airplane 

magazine that my husband had

thrown out. I did a double take because

I couldn't believe that he had thrown it 

away and also because the colors were

so neat! 

I immediately thought of  making a 

card for my son (also an airplane lover).

I also wanted it to say 'soar' reflecting not only

the airplane theme, but also what I wanted

him to aspire to. 

So that is when I knew

that I would have to hand carve a rubber stamp!

I really like the way the stamp turned out. I distressed it, so it would look a bit older, by 

carving little tiny areas away. 

I am including a quote that I think is 

so inspiring:

“To an infinite artist, a Creator in love with His craft, there is no unimportant corner, there is no thrown-away image, no tattered thread in the novel left untied.” Nate Wilson

Wedding Lace Rubber Stamp Carving

 

Wedding dress lace, rubber stamp carving.

 

Had fun with this carving. Used a

photograph of the young lady's lace from

her wedding dress, drew it and then carved it for 

her, adding the words, 'Thank You'. The words have a fine texture carved into them as well.

She will use it to make her own thank you notes to send to all of her guests. 

So special to be able to duplicate something like that for someone.

And a rubber stamp that she can use for years to come!

Included a picture of the actual rubber stamp and one of 

the print from the hand carved stamp.
