two books on how to carve rubber stamps

I found these to be very helpful in learning how to carve rubber stamps:

 

1.

Julie Hagan Bloch has a great little book she hand lettered all about carving stamps. She also wrote and illustrated the book. It's soft cover and about 20 pages long and excellent. When I purchased it it was $5.95.

 

Name of book: Carving Stamps

 

Author: Julie Hagan Bloch

 

ISBN # 1-882817-05-2

 

In 2004 I spent a day with Julie in her studio and she showed me how she carves her stamps. She was gracious and helpful and has 1,000's of hand carved stamps.
