Rubber Stamp Extravaganza features over a dozen different craft projects, all starting with one or more stamps, but ending with an incredible variety of finished items, including decorative articles for the home or to wear, greeting cards, original artwork, glassware, light switch plates and more. Vesta Abel shows readers how to combine stamps with many different surfaces and techniques to create distinctive craft items. Although she includes new and exciting twists to traditional ways of stamping on papers with inks and embossing powder, she goes beyond the well-known techniques by combining stamps with a variety of surfaces, including faux leather, metal, foil, tin, vinyl, fabric, candles, frames, glass, polymer clay, and more. The original projects, many with a southwestern feel, make for tons of fun!

A first-rate book for intermediate and andvanced stampers! The project instructions are detailed, with many accompanying photos. Materials used are readily available at your local stamp store or online. I have made several projects from the book and they have all turned out superb!
Rubber stamps aren't just for paper anymore. Vesta Abel shows us how to stamp on metal, glass, leather, clay, shrink plastic, candles... For those who haven't used embossing powders yet, you'll definitely want to give it a try after seeing what Vesta Abel does with them.The idea galleries in each section offer plenty of suggestions, and I'm a crafter who doesn't focus solely on rubber stamps. I got lots of ideas from the galleries, which is why I'm giving Rubber Stamp Extravaganza 5 stars.The book is colorful, detailed, easy to read, and inspirational.

Beautiful book. Great project ideas.
