Review by Library Journal Review

Stamping is a craft with a wide variety of applications, from paper craft to fabric arts. In this nature-inspired guide to art stamps, Zlatkis takes crafters through the steps of designing and carving their own stamps from inspiration to creation. The supplies Zlatkis uses are inexpensive and accessible, and the end results add flair and embellishment to a variety of projects, from stamped flowerpots to journals to throw pillows. VERDICT Zlatkis's bold, folk art-inspired stamps are lovely to look at, and her enthusiasm for her craft is apparent. Crafters working with both paper and fabric will enjoy this collection.
