Great Ways to Use our Custom Stamps

JessicaLynnOriginal also owns JLMould.etsy.com. At my Etsy store I create custom art and stamps for some amazing customers. Here some amazing stamps that were created for our customers and how they used them!

* VISIT OUR STORE: http://jlmould.etsy.com/

This stamps was created for another Etsy client who was looking for a fun way to showcase her jewelry. I love this box, I just think it would be great when you open this as a gift! :)

I work with a lot of clients who love to use their stamps for stamping their projects. My stamps will hold up when you stamp the image into clay. I just love how this looks. After watching a lot of the Channel 10/36 Antique Roadshow.. it is important to "stamp" or mark your items. Never know in 100 years it could be folk art.. worth a lot!

This is the final project that I am going to share today. My custom stamps are great for holiday gift giving. You can make some amazing and creative gift wrap using your stamps and then "tag" them with my custom stamps.

If you are looking for a custom stamp please email me (stamps@jessicalynnoriginal.com) or visit my Etsy Store to order. If you are looking for a custom design I make those too. I look forward to working with you.

Custom Stamp for SomaCow

My husband is hooked on podcast from the SomaCow group. They are a very entertaining group. He has gotten to know many of them via email and wanted to do something nice for them. He asked me to make them two custom stamps that they could use to promote their website and podcast. I love the cow graphic because my cell phone always looks like that cow... about 1/2 a battery! Enough said.

They posted the information on their blog about the stamps as well : SomaCow Blog

I can create any custom stamp for your. Just email me for the costs and I would love to create a custom stamp for your needs. Birthday Party, Name Stamp, Return Address, Piece of Art.. you name it. :)

JLO Challenges - JLO002 Prizes

Challenge Number 2!! The first cards were great!! This brand new layout will be a lot of fun to see what you create with it. I am trying to keep the first couple simple so we can really get into this process and how it works. Be sure to share this challenge with your friends and family!!

I think that you could really get creative with the lines, maybe they are ribbon or card stock.

PRIZE: Will be one of the 15 BRAND NEW STAMP SETS (randomly chosen - value $9.00) My wonderful husband will be the guest judge again. He loves being part of the JLO stamps, he is just not a card maker. :)

DEADLINE: All cards need to be linked by September 13th at NOON - Check the JLO CLock for the time!!

Please post your card on your blog and then link it below! I can't wait to see what you create.
