Holiday Block Party

What’s more heartwarming than a homemade gift? In this fun workshop you’ll design and carve 3 rubber stamps to use to make your own wrapping paper, holiday cards, gift bags, wine tags, ornaments, veggi bags – you dream it you can do it. Make this holiday, home-made and personal. The stamps you create can be used again and again on fabric and paper for years to come!

I will share how to design a focal point block and a repeat pattern block. I’ll demonstration all the techniques and tricks to designing and carving a rubber stamp that you can use again and again in fiber and paper arts. Once you have created your stamps Lisa will show lots of ways to use your stamps to create gifts and cards and embellishment.

This class will be recorded and available for students to view for 2 weeks after class.
