I am so excited to share the stamp I carved today...I saw somewhere that someone was carving stamps of people from photographs. Well I'm so not ready for that but I did want to give it a shot so I found a photo of my dog Graber (pronounced Grey-burr, not grabber - LOL) I liked and tried my hand at it.
This is my stamp that I made from this photo...
(He's a Jack Russell, Rat Terrier mix)
I forgot to print it out in reverse so he would be facing the right direction but it's pretty close. As you can see he's brown with black shot through. I didn't know how to carve that into the stamp so it doesn't look exact but I'm pretty happy with how he turned out. He's at least recognizable.
