For Lime and Liza

Two very good friends married recently, and the bride needed a something blue. I also wanted to make something personal and keepsake-y, so I came up with this. The bride and groom's initials, LOVE, and the wedding date are stamped on respective sides, plus hearts on the bottom. I added a short ball chain and some very light blue beads. And of course, didn't get a picture of the final product, consistent with my inconsistency. Eventually, I will learn.

Getting Started

Moving onto a new (ad)venture! Handstamping jewelry! These are the 4 fonts I have now, plus 9 design stamps. I hope to add more designs each month, and new fonts as I can.


The bottom line is from L to R:
Baby feet L & R, Owl, Om, Hearts, Swirly, Bee, Lotus flower, and a Butterfly






As I add more to my collection, I'll update pictures!

Top 2 lines: 1/16" block font. There is no B pictured b/c I discovered that it was a 6. Working on that.

Next 2 lines: 1/8" block font.


Next 3 lines: 1/4" block font. These will make really cool initial charms/pendants/earrings and monogram centers.

My favorite "special" font: a lowercase, comic font.
