Homemade Rubber stamps

Making stamps out of a rubber/eraser is so easy.
I first did it on my foundation course during the textiles rotation and we used proper lino cut tools but this time I just used a craft knife which worked just as well.

I made buttons...

...a heart and star...

...and a feather.


Then I printed them onto these brown tags.

I don't have many ink pads so I just used acrylic paint which I applied directly to the stamp with a small sponge.


I love the homemade feel of them and the way I can create loads of different patterns with just a few stamps.
