stamp

[Shelley]

I have not cut this yet... and I will surely scale it down... but I'm going to try to cut it onto a rubber stamp...

Ive cut quite a few stamps the text is too narrow I think the stamp without the text would be okay. It wont be one stamp it will cut a couple of elements and you can assemble it on a block.
Good luck though

[Shelley]

Yeah, you are right... the text is too narrow. I tried it first on paper... I'm working on fatter text now.

[Tingha Treasures]

okay I do find fatter text works best

[Shelley]

What are some tips for cutting stamps? I know now about fatter text.

What other suggestions do you have?

I have not cut one yet...

[Tingha Treasures]

new or very sticky mat is a must. After youve cut your shape Ive often used a sharp small blade hobby knife to carve out some smaller areas to give the stamp more depth!

[Shelley]

Awesome!
Thanks for the tip!

[Shelley]

and I was thinking about what you said about having to assemble all the pieces on the block....

maybe I should connect/weld everything with a bar, and let it cut that way... when get it on the block I could cut all the bars off with a knife?

what do yo think about that?

well I found I could use elements with other stamps Id cut. If you have a nice circle with centre cut out you can then place another shape or letter(s) in that and swap them about, got that idea from some stamps Id purchased.
