    You definitely made carving look easy. I am A letterboxer and am about to attempt to carve my first stamp. I tried it once already and thought it was okay, but I want it to be better. Can’t wait to get started . Your video helped me a lot. Thanks !!

    I loved how sarcastically you yelled “it’s a stamp!” Everytime you tested what you made. 😆

    You have a very nice voice! I like that the music was kind of subdued on this one. It didn't distract me from what you're doing. It's good to see someone do the text. I wondered how you got such thin lines. I guess it just takes time and practice.

      Practice - but also lots of light and magnification! :)

    Thank you so much for this video! I've been having a hell of a time trying to carve the text from my logo into a stamp. Did not think to use an x-acto knife - once I cool off from throwing away too many messed up carvings, will definitely be trying this! Also - your voice is lovely!

    I love Postcrossing!! I started back in October & I’m always excited to find postcards in my mailbox!! I’ve often wished I had a stamp or some stickers to make writing the ID’s much easier & now I can!! Thanks so much for this!! I got a postcard yesterday with a sticker that looked similar to this stamp & they only had to write in the ID number. That’s actually what reminded me to get on here to learn how to make my own stamp for it! It would make it so much easier!!
    Happy Postcrossing & stamping! :D

    Thank you SO much for this! I'm about to be making some printing on handmade paper and nobody has videos about text. I'm curious about what size of font you're working with there? Is that the smallest you'd recommend? it looks pretty tough even at that size.

  • @andreaschristodoulou4274

    What a job !!!! what an accurate carving , bravo, is any simple chemical method doing that without spending so many time doing that ???

    • @kkrolf2782
      @kkrolf2782 3 года назад

      There’s a product “out there” called a “MINT”. Not sure if that quite qualifies as chemical per se, but it doesn’t require the use of any carving tools. At this writing I don’t know if this product is even being supported any longer, but I wish you luck in finding it. I, too, am enthralled with this gal’s skill, but don’t believe I could succeed to an acceptable level to please myself.

    I tried the Christmas poinsettia with the blue Easy-carve material. I used a brand new blade in my exacto knife, but the material seemed crumbly. It ended up jaggedly. I found this sandwich type material on Amazon. Do you think I will have better luck with that? I also think I may have tried to carve too deeply. Maybe close to 1/8 inch. Should I try to be shallower. Thanks!

    • @CutsAndScrapes
      @CutsAndScrapes  5 лет назад +1

      Eeek! That blue stuff is the mean cousin of Speedy Cut and is super crumbly (See what I mean here: ruclips.net/video/cssA7jDQYyU/видео.html). It's not great at all for details! The sandwich materials are usually pretty good - there is one linked in the description to this video which is the type I used :) Happy carving!

    • @CutsAndScrapes
      @CutsAndScrapes  7 лет назад +1

      Hi Tia! Not every laser printer will work, unfortunately. I'm using a discontinued Brother laser printer - I've had good luck with the newer ones as well. Test them out, but don't give up :) Happy carving!

      A round stamp ought to be easy-peasy! Just use a circle die from a paper crafting die set; press the circle size you desire into your carving material of choice; carve away anything that doesn’t look like a circle. TA-DA!!!

    You’re making me nervous…..not really holding the rubber securely on the table, and not keeping your fingers out of the way. It doesn’t take much to run a sharp blade through your finger, especially when you’re a beginner! More emphasis on carving safely, please!
