After my little experiment with carving a mousemat stamp earlier today, I’ve done a little research, and found this great tutorial for doing it ‘properly’. I love the retro flower motif she uses in the example. I think I might invest in one of those lino-cutting tools, as it will just make life easier (you need to be careful you don’t ‘under-cut’ the lines you carve, or they will just crumble off, with use). I’ve seen a multi-pack of erasers at one of the local pound shops, though, so that might account for my next foray in this direction…
