Description:

For this swap you will make one hand carved stamp for your partner based on his or her profile. What kind of imagery would they like? What would they use the stamp for?

If you don't know how to make a hand carved stamp, visit this website to see a tutorial: http://ourworld.compuserve.com/homepages/franontheedge/RubberCarving.html

Material must be something that will last. Many cheap hand carved stamps are made from an eraser (the white kind work better than the pink kind). Please do not use something that will decay or fall apart (like a potato or cork.)

Size should be equivalent to 1"x1" (1/2"x2" is just as good) at a minimum.

Go for extra hearts by making more stamps and/or larger stamps.

Open to swappers with no no-sends in the past 3 months, and at least 5 hearts.

Can the stamp be made out of linoleum? I'd like to join, but the only materials I am familiar with is lino. Thanks!!!! Monica
