Emerald City Stamp Revisited

A few years ago I made an Emerald City stamp inspired by the illustrations in the book "Wicked" by Gregory Maguire.  (See the original post here!) I made it with a stamping rubber and craft knife purchased at my local craft supply store.  You can see that it is dyed green from the colors I have stamped it, and it broke in half at some point in storage.  I thought it was neat to try, and I liked the results, but I decided I probably wouldn't do it again.

That is... until I got my hands on Stampin' Up!'s Undefined carving kit!




For my first carved stamp using the Undefined kit, I decided to replicate my Emerald City stamp.  I was so impressed with the carving tools and the texture of the rubber--much easier than my previous experience with carving!  It also produces a better quality stamped image.  I will definitely keep a couple of these on hand to give to some of my artistic friends!

What have you created with Undefined?

Thanks for joining me!
