So last night, I wanted a stamp of ocean waves. And I made one!
It's been a long time since I carved a stamp, and it was very satisfying.
Well, that's it, in the interest of brevity, as well as me getting into the shower and
out the door. If you leave a comment or follow, I will do my best to hunt you down
and return the favor--see you later, WOYWWers! (click HERE if you want to be
a woywwer, too!)

This is something that is on my To Do list, it must be so satisfying to create your own stamps.

Love your hand made stamp! jenx 129
what fun!! i love carving stamps (usually out of erasers) even though I'm not very good at it. Love yours!
I just bought a carving block and was going to give something like this a try---thanks for the inspiration!
Okay, I just wanna say, having carved stamps from linoleum, erasers and the printmaking/carving blocks--the carving blocks are SO much easier to use, it's just a joy!!
:)
Being a new stamper, I never actually thought of making my own...but what a great idea. That is why this blog hopping thing is so great, we get to learn new ideas from each other. So track me down girlfriend, and join my blog! I will be honored to have you on board! Hugs, Cathryn
Hats off to you for carving that stamp which looks lovely I must say. Me and carving my own - don't get on at all. Well done! Thanks for visiting me earlier - Hugs, Neet number 16 xx
This is on my to do list getting very close to the top ... You did a great job with yours
Thanks for visiting me

Love this! It looks like a work of art in itself with all that texture. Amazing MMx #66
Nifty! I tend to do fun foam stamps as they are dead easy, but not carved them since high school art class. Love the waves.
Happy (late) WOYWW

Oh...LOVE your hand-carved waves stamp!
I have a couple of big boxes of stamps that I carved many years ago. I keep telling myself that I need to get them out and use them again and maybe carve some more.
I have a big 8 by 10 block of Uncle Walters carving block that you can't even get anymore and every once in a while when I open that cabinet, I hear calling my name!

That is so cool! Now what do you carve a stamp out of....rubber...foam? Thanks for your visit. Happy WOYWW! Nan #9
That is awesomely cool! I just bought a few supplies to try to carve me own stamp...... what a neat design you have made- look forward to seeing it on a finished project : )
Nan, I used a block specifically made for carving stamps, but you can use erasers, too.
Having used both, I suggest just getting the carving block--so much more pleasant to work with!
:)
Super wave stamp, well done!
