Fun with stamps!

I've been spending a lot of time in the Atelier making stamps.  I had this crazy idea that I could make "upcycled" tissue paper with my stamps, and then things started to spiral.  I've always been a little bit uncomfortable that my card designs are collages, and not totally my own work - my own collages, but...  Suddenly I looked at cases of pre-made greeting card blanks, and my hand cut stamps...

Here are some of the resulting photographs!  I'm really in love with the gingko stamp.  I call the other ones "pinwheels", the gold stamp looks a little bit like a sand dollar, the blue one is a bit like a Japanese woodcut of a chrysanthemum.

The opportunities are huge....
