Day 14 of 29: Rubber stamp development misfire … hic. Oh and Cubs clingy FINAL
Started new proj: Rubber stamp. Chopped out a chunk and considered trying my red uakari monkey face logo then bagged the idea. I figure I need to start with a less complicated thing to carve.
… so I went with text only. I printed it in reverse and normally so I could have a reference of what it would look like during and after carving.
I got it traced onto the rubber block by penciling-in the logo on tracing paper and rubbing it onto the block. Then came the carving. Then came the delicious slicing. Then came the me getting carried away. Then came … I gotta start over. Ha ha. Moral: Don’t drink and carve intricate rubber blocks with razors. I’m fine but the block is quite rogered.
Pile of debris. Ha. It was fun to scrape it all off and plan a new attack on the reverse side. yay. Good night and Happy VD!!
Here’s the Cubs clingy I made on Day 06 of 29. It turned out great and sticks to the sliding-glass door like a champ. I’m going to make some reversal clingys for my pals’ cars. Go Cubs!
