Rubber Stamp Carving!
Workshop Description:
Create your own custom rubber stamps in this hands-on, step-by-step Zoom workshop with artist Laurie Moorhead! Laurie has carved hundreds of stamps and will guide you through the complete process — from selecting materials and tools to designing and carving your very first stamp.
Whether you're a bookmaker, collage artist, or mixed media explorer, this class will open up a whole new world of creative possibilities. Laurie will also share tips on various carving materials and tools she’s tested over the years. By the end of the session, you'll walk away with a unique, hand-carved stamp of your own — and the skills to keep carving more.
Warning: Stamp carving is highly addictive!
