Well, I just did my first THREE stamps today! I am so excited. They
turned out so nicely. I only wish I had a scanner or something so I
could share them!
I started with a really simple design for my first one. It turned
out SO nicely I decided to go ahead try and do my personal stamp. I
did that- it admittedly took two tries. And then I did another for
my husband!
Thanks to Mary from VA for your tips on getting the right tools (I
used a Micheal's coupon just as you did!). And also, if the person
who did the website Carving 101 is on this list-- thanks to you as
well! (That website was also VERY useful and helpful!)
Here is the link in case anyone else needs some tips for their first
stamp: (It seems like mostly experienced letterboxers here--but just
in case someone new runs across this)

Now I am ready to find my first box!!!
