Rubber Stamping Projects

  We have a new download available to practice hand lettering in the style of "Sailor Jerry" which has an artsy, California, tattoo vibe. Hand lettering is a wonderful way to draw letters and do something artistic with minimal supplies. All you need is paper, pencil and a marker. Add a rubber stamp to embellish your creation.  This is a modified version of the common tattoo font that I created and am sharing it with you.

Here is a link  ​to view our free, mini journal printable template  of the cover and inside pages including score lines. You can always just hole punch or sew your journal any way you wish, but this shows how to glue t...
