Carving Stamps for Patterning at The Ink Pad

On Saturday I shared all of my stamp carving secrets with a wonderful group of women at The Ink Pad.

Not only were the stamps they carved absolutely amazing, but their enthusiasm and generous spirits made my day!

I will be returning to the Ink Pad for a two-day art journaling class on October 19 & 20.  You can also take in-person classes with me at CREATE: New Jersey in July!

Thanks for stopping by!
