I carved my first stamps today!

For letterboxing, Jon and I had been using a dog paw print stamp that we bought at Michael's. It wasn't great though...the print always came out kind of crappy, and most people who letterbox hand-carve their own stamps. So today, I bit the bullet and decided to try carving my own.

I found some directions online through one of the LB websites we use, and it seemed easy enough. I went and bought a few supplies, and when I got back from errands this afternoon, I sat down to start carving, not really knowing if it would turn out any good....but the paw print came out so well, I decided to do another one! The second one is "Lumo", which is our trail name.

What do you think?
