MikeRock Report post Posted December 10, 2019 Awesome....again!! What kind of background stamp do you use on this? I've looked for repeating patterns and 'think' I find some, but a second later can't find it again. That is such a nice background. God bless Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

God bless Thank you! I use PA003, PA004, PA005 stamps (manufacturer Hide Crafter, USA). To avoid repeating the pattern, I rotate them at a random angle and in a different direction after each hit. Plus, I try not to put stamp along a straight line, but in an arc and slightly randomly. 1 hour ago, Rockoboy said: That is the greatest thing I have seen, since the last thing you carved!
