Carve December Day 20

Eleven Days of Carve December to go! Then this will also be the end of 2022. Today’s stamp is a snowflake that I am adding to my patterns. Today’s print is being combined with the previous days’ prints to see how they look together. This is one just pattern combination. I still need to refillContinue reading “Carve December Day 20”

Carve December Day 19

The stamp for Day 19 is building on the stamps from the past few days. I have been experimenting with patterns using the previous stamps. I may even combine them with my stamps from last Carve December. As you can see, I just need to get refill ink for my red ink pad….

Carve December Day 16

I like to listen to a variety of Christmas music from carols, to classical, to contemporary. Sometimes sneaking in Soundtrack music like Love, Actually or Scott McCreery’s “Five More Minutes.” During the day,Continue reading “Carve December Day 9”

Carve December Day 8

I wanted to go back to doing holiday stamps. I played around with reindeer ideas because today’s prompt is energy and a flying reindeer definitely has energy. This stamp was quick and easy, after drawing a bunch of jumping and flying reindeer in my sketchbook first. Here is today’s stamp with the various sketches.
