Well - I am really hooked on block printing now.
I had been saving two 'smushed' egg cartons just because I liked the way they looked. I decided to draw something similar and try making a stamp from the drawing. I like the results and now have to order more block - fast!
Below, the photo at the top is the egg carton that was my inspiration - it's beside the drawing I did. The the next photo on the shows the cut block material next to the "proof" of the stamp in my sketch book.
Finally, here is a piece of fabric printed with the block. The left side was printed with some rather dessicated stamp pads I had from long ago & the right side is done with some textile paints. Why did I not know about this FUN long ago??!!

That is darned cool! I think you will get lots of use from this stamp.
Your block printing is fantastic.
very very cool! I love the whole progression of the egg carton pattern and your feather and other stamp look great too. Great work!
