A while ago I told you
about how I made Halloween
recipe postcards as a vehicle to share recipes with friends while at the same time
sending a seasonal greeting. I employed the use of a rubber stamp in order to
do so, which got me to thinking about all of the wonderful recipe rubber stamps
that are available, and how much fun it is to use them when sending cards to
foodie friends.
I have a large collection of rubber stamps that my dad helped
me organize by making these wonderful shelves that are mounted on the walls of
my studio. When you have as many rubber stamps as I do, trust me when I tell
you that organization is the key! When I first started rubber stamping, my enthusiasm had me buying stamps
willy-nilly with no real thought as to what my interests truly were. This
resulted in having way too many of them (And my having to open an etsy
shop to sell off the extras!). Having finally gotten a grip, I focus on
those that reflect my true loves: mystery, travel, cooking, writing, and
holidays.
Here is a part of my
cooking collection of rubber stamps, focusing on recipe rubber stamps alone.
This year I plan to rubber stamp my Christmas card envelopes with a collage of
cookie recipes. It would probably be appropriate then, to design my own card to
include a seasonal cocoa recipe.
Are any of you rubber stampers? If so, tell me about your collection in the
comments below.
