Holiday cards--hand-carved stamp |
This is the other tree stamp. (Oh, the shadowy taken-at-night photo!!) I think it will work nicely on a gift tag or plain brown wrapping.
These were carved from sketches, rather quickly, last week when I was feeling prickly and needed to sit quietly by myself and make something--and my three-year-old, thankfully, cooperated with that plan.
What are you planning for holiday cards this year?
(You can see lots more creative folk here!)

Your little trees will look lovely and Christmassy this year!
Beautiful! Love those trees, and the salamander is such a sweet personal touch. I keep putting off the picture of the kids. I have cards, but I just don't want to go through the whole bit of getting them dressed and posing them, even for a super informal outside picture. It's such a drag.
Love your cards... there is nothing better than hand stamped cards I say!!! My little man and I had a great time stamping xmas cards, though I had to break it down into a few days as he would lose interest after doing about 10cards :)
they are lovely! A nice personal touch!
for the first time in years I'm not doing cards this year. My energies are focused elsewhere this year but I have made up some calendars for family - they are called 'A Year of Willem and Alice' and will make everyone happy I'm sure!
very nice stamps there. I do like mr lizard.
the tree stamp looks great, hand stamped cards are such a great idea! love the salamander on the back, really cute :-)
Beautiful work on the stamp! I love the assymetrical branches!
I like your handmade cards, very natural, yet Christmassy looking. I'd love to try carving my own stamps but not sure where to buy blocks of rubber from, any ideas?
Great cards. How lovely for your nearest and dearest to receive something made by you. Lovely!
