Hi, please could you give an example of doodle-style stamps? Do sentiment stamps count? Thank you :)
ReplyDeleteI'd also like to know what you define as doodle style stamps. Are there some examples you can give? Certain companies who make them in particular? Thanks
ReplyDeleteHello ladies! A 'doodle' style stamp is really anything that looks sketched or hand drawn. Or, a design you can imagine yourself drawing whilst on the phone! So, think Tim Holtz blueprint stamps, or Dina Wakely sketchy birds? That kind of thing. Nothing too precise! I would definitely include background stamps with a repeating pattern of circles/hearts/squares etc in the 'doodle stamp' category... that's the kind of thing I find myself doodling all the time! Zentangle type designs would be fabulous as well! Hope that helps a little?
