Summer Wishes Update - Artistamps

Accomplished:

#3. make at least 2 new artistamps

Hurray! I did it!  This one of Ms. Frizzle I drew, scanned and designed on the computer a long time ago, but never printed it out. I have to go over to the UPS store across the street to print things. Lazy bones!


And here are the new two:

 Pie stamps, because duh. 
Snickers pie and strawberry pie.

 Instead of writing out Pie Post on the stamp I went for a symbol. I was inspired by the UK's Royal Mail with the silhouette of the queen. See here:


I am quite happy with how they turned out. I think next time the numbers need to be bigger and the stamp itself needs to be smaller. The Snickers Pie stamps were a pretty good size, but the Strawberry Pie and Frizzle stamps were more than twice as big as normal stamps.

And here they are in action:

and a few included inside:
