They do get covered up for the most part but it's like that Tai restaurant that has the sign out front that says "if you don't like garlic, go home" My sign currently says "I am exploring scribbles and lines, so work with me here!" Thanks for stopping by!

The stuff is called Speedy Cut by Speedball. I didn't find much at Michael's this last time I went although they said they still carry it. At Hobby Lobby I found that and two others, Moo Carve that is quite a thick gray block and Speedy-Carve also by Speedball which is pink. Good luck with your search.<br /><br />Egmont, so nice to see you! So happy to be an inspiration for you as well. I think that is one of the wonderful things about the blog world, we meet freinds and inspire and are inspired by those we might never have crossed paths with in our normal lives. Please post your results or if not, send me an email with what you come up with. I will be anxious to see what you do.<br /><br />Hi Lynne, I have been intrigued with your new approach of minimalism with your faces. Can't wait to see what you do with stamps. Or as I saw on another blog today,"Lino prints". I guess that would be more from linolium blocks though but hey, what the heck, sounds more arty.Tonya Vollertsenhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/02400831737079985603noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-1693069070043317640.post-4761080384455792222010-04-02T14:16:33.486-05:002010-04-02T14:16:33.486-05:00oh, this is beautifull, tonya! it inspires me to ...oh, this is beautifull, tonya! it inspires me to make a stamp this way... xolynne hhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/00682812765012431260noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-1693069070043317640.post-39975051543703876472010-04-02T02:48:29.540-05:002010-04-02T02:48:29.540-05:00Dear Tonya,

Just yesterday i purchased a set of tools and a plate to try my hand at making a stamp. So seeing your crow and the resulting stamp has given me inspiration.<br /><br />Thank you for sharing and I wish you a wonderful Easter day weekend,<br />EgmontFour Seasons in a Lifehttps://www.blogger.com/profile/16515078635782464939noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-1693069070043317640.post-4371061127866055852010-04-01T22:55:16.253-05:002010-04-01T22:55:16.253-05:00I think I gave my comment directly to your email a...I think I gave my comment directly to your email address... So I will try again to give it to you through your blog. <br /><br />Please tell me again the name of the material you used for this stamp. I thought you said "Quick Cut" and you bought it at Michaels??? The Michaels in Gulfport never heard of it. <br /><br />I just love what you did with the stamp in the painting of the two birds.

The photo idea has opened up a whole new world of image possibilities for me.<br /><br />Hi Maggie, thanks! It was one of those things where you just try to problem solve. One foot was black and the other foot was white. So I outlined the white one to keep from losing it altogether.<br /><br />Thanks Martine!
