How to Make a Stamp for Handprinting





My LOVE LOVE LOVE for printing stuff came with being a designer (of course) and taking this great class in college called "Exploring the Book." I learned a variety of letterpress printing techniques and picked up some great additional hand printing ideas from a book called "Printing by Hand," by Lena Corwin. She has a ton of great projects in there. She prints on fabric, which is something I am definitely going to work towards. I love the ideas in the book because I have very limited space, and all of them you can do on the kitchen table basically. So I hope the tutorial on making a stamp comes in handy, and look for more posts like this with crafty how-to's!
