My FIRST stamp carving!
09/30/2013
WHAT shall I carve with Stampin' Up!'s NEW "Undefined" Stamp Carving Kit?? Well...outside my stamp office window is one of my favorite plants - the Caladium or Elephant Ears. So I plucked a baby leaf and went to work!
First, I drew my leaf onto paper with a REGULAR OLDE PENCIL. (I have NO drawing skills - Zilch!) I flipped over the design and placed the pencil side down onto the carving rubber and simply rubbed the paper to transfer the image.
Using the two rubber carving tools from the kit, I carved away the rubber to leave the outline. It was very easy to carve - I was pleasantly surprised!
After carving, I mounted the rubber onto the foam and printed the wooden block. Lastly, I mounted the rubber/foam onto the wooden block. DONE! Darn easy! Now to play!!
Here is my finished card!! I'm pretty proud of my first carving!! What shall I carve next?? Do you need an unusual image?? Carve it!! Have an unsual name? Carve it!! Need an unusual gift?? Send it!! This kit comes in a nice gift box! TRY IT!!
