I have this desire to design my own stamps. I am inspired by my favorite websites like MFT, Bellas etc.. and I just know I can put our some cute stuff but have no idea what the first step would be to get started. I figure, there are so many stamps I want and if they are not out- Ill just draw them… Here are just a few doodles for my chocolate themed images…(watermarked)

I have 12 designs for a chocolate themed stamp set. Who doesn’t like chocolate? Anyone interested? I have some cute sayings in mind too….

1-13-08    Here is my chocolate chip cookie image made into a cute card- photos never do it justice. These look good enough to eat. I colored them in with colored pencils and used bling rhinestone brads. I think it came out cute! The one on the bottom right is popped up for dimension but you cant really see it in the picture.

For this card- I drew the Hershey Kisses and cut them out of cardboard wrapping them in foil and popping them with pop dots for added dimension. I love the googley eyes… Its not want I originally had in mind but-its OK.

1/27/08 My latest and favorite addition to my “Who Needs Stamps” is my chocolate covered strawberry. Looks good enough to eat! I colored this with Prismacolor pencils and I really like the way it came out So many possibilities with this one. I’m enjoying playing and will continue to sketch away. Who know, maybe one day I’ll have my own line of stamps!
