Travellin' and carvin'

So, I'm really lucky in life because I can usually figure out how to get away from snow and find my way for a short break somewhere sunny in the winter.

But does that stop me from carving?  Nope.  I have a small carving kit that I put together every time I travel and I think I'll be making either a post or video about it next.

In the meantime, it is time for this month's Carve Along!  The video is below and you can check it out on YouTube.  You can also get access to the free Carve Along sheet by signing up here.

The material I used to carve in this video is a solid-coloured square type carving material.  On the one hand, the rubber comes in pieces that are smaller than I'd like for carving (I like making big stamps) but the smaller size is perfect for travelling with...

Hope you enjoy the video - happy carving!

Carve Along #2: the Holiday Edition

The second Carve Along is here!  The video is already up on YouTube, but if you’d like to join, you can join this free group by signing up here where you will also get access to the free (past and present) CAL sheets so you can carve right along!

In this video I used the sandwich carving material so I could get some gorgeous colour for the poinsettia, but you could use any carving material you like.

Man, I'd love to see your carvings!  Feel free to comment here or message me on on Instagram (you can find me here @cutsandscrapesetsyshop).

Happy carving!

Introducing the Stamp Makers' Carve Along!

Hi everyone,

So I finally got around to starting something that has been percolating in my mind for some time: a video carve along series.

What it is: any time a Carve Along video is posted, the members receive a pdf with a link to the video, a copy of the design from the video, tips or tricks for that carving, and information for where to find the tools & supplies.

If you'd like to join, you can sign up - for free - by adding your email to the group here.  Anyone who wants to join in the future will also have access to the Carve Along sheets and can catch up :)

The first Carve Along is now live! Happy carving!

Coming Soon: the Stamp Maker's Carve Along!

Hello again!

I'm terribly behind in my blogging, with my apologies.  I participated in the Grimsby Wayzgoose recently and definitely want to give you the low down on that, but in the meantime I have been working away at something new for this site that I wanted to share: a carve along!

What it is:

Any time I release a Carve Along, a video will be posted with a new stamp design.  The video will explain how to carve it, along with other tips and tricks.  Members of the Carve Along group will receive a free downloadable copy of the design, along with resources for where to find the supplies used.


Membership is free, and all you have to do is join.  The first Carve Along will be posted soon, so be sure to sign up!
