One of the first things that made me fall in love with stamp carving was this technique for creating multi-colored prints. (You can find the whole technique in great detail in my book, Carve Stamp Play.)
Having recently carved up most of my garbage rubber, I gave myself permission to crack open a nice new block of Speedy Carve. (My blocks are 2"x3".) And then I sat and carved and carved and carved until I had a giant pile of rubber.
When it came to printing, I wanted each part to really stand out, so I tried to use some highly contrasting colors. I also did a little bit of multi colored printing on several of the blocks for even more impact.
I'm really pleased with how the prints came out!
Thanks for stopping by!

P.S. My Mom says there's a hidden face in one of the blocks.
I see it! Do you?
Your mom’s right and there’s something to do there. Love your tag. I like Speedy Carve blocks best for carving stamps but I can’t find them in France. Ordering them from the US is quite expensive owing to the shipping costs, so I don’t buy them often.

That dude really needs an orthodontist! Love the technique! Do you ever do resuction prints? I don’t. because I like to keep my stamps intact, once I have carved them!
