Tugadude Report post Posted January 28, 2023 I really like the appearance of the border. I really don't do much stamping and no tooling to speak of but I do want to try a border stamp on a project in the future and that one is quite attractive. I can see that enhancing a lot of projects, especially binders. Every time I see a well-executed project like this it reminds me of how cool this hobby is. And if this isn't your hobby, then I hope you are repaid for all of the time and experience that goes into creating something so special. Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Tungadude, It is a hobby, I must thank you, but not really skill. JUST SHEAR LUCK. The border is a bit tricky, need to practice to get it looking decent. Its called a meandering stamp. Thanks again Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
TomE Report post Posted January 28, 2023 Really like how the border frames the leaves. Great textures. Did you use a beader for the inside of the border? Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

DwightT Report post Posted January 28, 2023 When my wife and I first saw the meander stamp in the rack at Tandy, we could not figure out what it was for. We were only looking at the impression it made by itself and didn't consider the "negative space" that it left behind. Shortly after that somebody posted a project here where they had used the stamp and the proverbial light went on. That's one of the things that I love about this craft: forcing myself to look beyond the obvious both in tooling and in how to assemble a project. Might help to keep the brain somewhat limber in old age. And Chuck - you use of the stamp is simply genius, especially in combination with the seeder. /dwight Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
