Book Description
Editorial Reviews
From Booklist
According to previous books, it seems as if nothing else is needed to produce credible images than a rubber stamp, an ink pad, and a surface. Green, however, expands our horizons by combining other complementary media with the stamp process. In fact, the approximately 30 projects realize almost professional status, resembling good hand-colored illustrations applied in creative ways to a variety of surfaces, including picture frames, photo albums, clothing, and holiday ornaments. Techniques range from embossing and repeat designs to the incorporation of stenciling, sponging, stitching, and decoupage. Too, tips like "choose a well-defined outlined image for a 3D pop-up" appear throughout patterns and instructions. Barbara Jacobs

5.0 out of 5 stars
Easy to follow and inspiring!,
By Janine M. (North Carolina) - See all my reviews
This review is from: The Ultimate Rubber Stamping Technique Book (Paperback)
Until I bought this book I didn't think that I could create anything really interesting and professional-looking. Was I wrong! The Ultimate Rubber Stamping Technique Book provides excellent direction and, more importantly, really inspires you to try some new things. Even my husband has now taken a turn at stamping and found it to be far less complicated than he thought it would be. Bottom line: follow the directions in this book and you can be an artist, even if you can't draw!

This book is a must for anyone interested in stamping.,
This review is from: The Ultimate Rubber Stamping Technique Book (Paperback)
Not only is this book a must for beginners, but also for anyone else with any interest in rubber stamping. It has so many ideas and projects that it seems like anyone could find something they are interested in trying but haven't. For the beginner, it has very complete but very easy to understand directions for becoming a complete rubber stamper. I don't think a "How To" book could accomplish any more than this one does.
