I finally finished my design doodle.  I have been working on it for almost a week in my spare time.  I will be getting this design turned into a stamp through my mother-in-law's stamping shop.  It was hand drawn using a Pilot G-2 07 gel ink pen.  The sketch pad used was:  Strathmore Sketch premium recycled paper 5.5" x 8.5"  The size will be reduced to 4" x 6.72" to be able to fit in the pasta machine I use for rolling clay.  I will be doing other designs in the future.  Would love to see what people think of it.  If any clay craft people see this, let me know how you think it would do on clay.  I am thinking that next time I will outline a border of 4" x 6" before I start and then I won't have to reduce the size.  Because of reducing the lines are closer together then I intended and I am not sure how well that will come out in clay.  Advice from anyone that has made stamps from their own hand drawn sketches would be appreciated. :) 


Stay happy,


Sharon
