Do you love books? I do!!!! I have a ton of books. My favourite type of book is the classic "who dunnit". I´m reading everywhere at anytime... And with this ton of books, all my friends, family and colleges are borrowing books. To make it easier for them to return the books to the me, I needed an Ex Libris stamp.

Grab your pencil and a piece of paper. Trace the shape of the rubber. Get creative and draw the design in the traced rectangle, when you´re happy with your design push the rubber on your image. You will have a slight copy on your stamp.
Follow the instructions that come with your tools and be careful, those things are sharp! Trust me :-) Before you start carving you have to decide, what you want to be on the stamped image. So basically the positive or negative of the image.
Start carving the parts you don´t want to be the stamped image. Play around till you happy with the result. Get your stamp pad and happy stamping!
