Stamping Saturday

I thought about keeping it a secret. But I've been dying and BURSTING to tell you what I've been up to for the past three days. I've been making.......... RUBBER STAMPS!!!! For the past week or so I've been obsessing obsessively about rubber stamps. I mean obsessively. I even made a list of all my favourite designs and their respective websites, all ready for my computer illiterate mum to buy them for my birthday. Three days ago something genius clicked in my brain, and I decided to make some myself. Since Singapore is not very crafty, rubber carving material and rubber carving tools are not available anywhere, so I made do with erasers and a pen-knife

the weirdo looking things are potato chips:

In absolute dumb-ness, I forgot that the printed image is always inverted, so when I made my 'I love ewe' stamp... well you know how it turned out

btw my mum is not spared. I'm going to get her to buy me carving tools and material.

Happy Saturday!!!
