rubber stamp

Long time ago I bought a very beautiful book. Lena Corwin is amazing! You should take a look at her blog as well.
When I prepare a finished purse for sending I usually add a thank you note, but the note was always missing something; so, I made a Pikula stamp. It was fun and I got back to childhood and primary school and times when we were making ex libris prints out of linoleum.
If you want to do something similar; I bought the rubber sheets here and you can find the carving tools in every craft shop.
Hmm, maybe it's time to make a purse with a cool print of my own?! What do you think?



Here is the book cover and some highlights from it:



I still offer free shipping in my Etsy shop! Hurry up...

  2. Fino štampiljko si naredila in z napisom počez je podobica perfektna:)

  3. Že pred časom sem občudovala tvojo novo blogovsko glavo, super štampiljka. Prav radovedna sem, koliko si rezljala, preden si prigarala tole extra fino? Zunanji obris štampiljke me mičkeno spominja na pasjo tačko - se mi zdi, da si združila veliko sebe v enem relativno majhnem koščku ;-)

    Tudi jaz te vzpodbujam k potisku tekstila - morda bi bil lahko to tvoj izziv za prihajajoče leto :-)
    Kar zadeva štampiljko

    Matilda, saj res, ti si bila srečna izžrebanka na KajaKaja blogu :-) Kakor rada rečem: prijazno fouš sem ti ❤
