A guide to making stamps, choosing the right stamping surface and mixing paints. There are ten projects, including stamping on lampshades, terracotta pots, curtains and cushions. The text also contains design tips for adapting the stamps to use on other surfaces.

  Synopsis Details Contents Reviews  
Practically anything makes a fabulous stamp--leaves, potatoes, spools, your hands! Follow the tips on inking the pad and the stamp itself, and embossing. Prepare the work surface; stamp wood, paper, fabric, and tiles; and clean your stamp properly. The fun begins when you try these projects: Fruit Printed Bags and Paper; a Trains, Boats, and Planes Quilt; Fishy Tiles; a Harlequin Christmas ornament and stocking; a Fleur-de-Lys lampshade or cushion; plus many more, all with patterns. 64 pages (all in color), 7 1/2 x 10 1/2.
