Like this antique hand carved wood fabric stamp.
I just love the leaves!!
A wooded Indian block stamp was used to decorate these delightful buttons from YolandasClay
Other stamps I found recently were on Bailey Ceramics. They are now carrying a huge line of Mayco Stamps and I might add Mayco glazes too. The stamps are fun and whimsical and quite well designed.
You can purchase these individually or as a kit.
Mayco tells us that "these designer, flexible stamps are great for use not only on flat surfaces such as plates, but are perfect for wrapping around curved projects such as cups, bowls and more. Each stamp is 6.75"l x 2.125"w."
And if you want to make your own stamps I found this great page at RubberStamps.net telling you just how to prepare your own drawings or images so that they can make you a wonderful custom stamp.
As far as I know all of the stamps referred to in this post allow you to use them on your art work. The only restriction would be that you not make the stamp itself for commercial purposes.
THE WINNER !!!!

ReplyDeleteOhhh that top stamp is lovely! I can say that I have an addiction to stamps but those wood ones are so incredibly fun to work with. Thank you for including my buttons Mary!
ReplyDeleteMary, those wood stamps you found are gorgeous! I will have to check them out. :o) Yolanda, those buttons are too cool! They would give any garment instant style. Love the flecks of color and interest while still remaining quite transparent to show off your stamping. Great work!
ReplyDeleteI bought a huge pile of wooden stamps a while back...I plan to list some extras on Etsy if anyone is interested! http://chinookdesigns.blogspot.com/2011/07/fresh-from-kiln.html
ReplyDeleteMARY!!!!!WOW love Amanda's stamps! What a find-thanks for sharing!
ReplyDeleteHi Rising Designs. Thanks for contacting me. Your winnings will be in the mail tomorrow.
ReplyDeleteHi Yolanda,
ReplyDeleteYes it is a beauty. I just love them. I love your buttons and was pleased to be able to include them in this post.
Shifflett Studios--so glad you like the wood stamps and Amanda's shop. I just happened to find her when I went looking for some for this post. I am sure she would love a visit.
ReplyDeleteHi Pearl and Pebble--Thanks for letting me know you like the stamps and for writing in. I can't wait to try some out.
ReplyDeleteHi Melissa, I hope you will let us know when you list them. Thanks for writing in.
ReplyDeleteThank you all for the great feedback on the buttons!
ReplyDeleteHi, Gals, I have a few questions about using wooden stamps for clay impressions. Do you use any sort of release material like talc or cornstarch?
ReplyDeleteThanks, Nancy
Hi Nancy,
ReplyDeleteI have checked with one user who says a release is not needed but the clay should not be wet,wet. Let the clay stay out awhile until it reaches the non sticky stage and then make your stamp. Thanks for writing in with a question. It helps all of us out.
Those wood stamps are fabulous. I ordered two of them. They will be here in the next day or so! :)
