The Joy of Using Old Stamps

I think in general, we don't go back to our stamps enough. I have some GORGEOUS old stamps that never see the light of day, so I thought I'd fix that with a stunning old water buffalo stamp I bought in the late 1900s. The style of this is so fun, and had an Asian feel, so I thought I'd pair it with the beautiful old script stamp in the same drawer.

Down the left is a fun scrap from a mixed media piece I did - and a scrap of gold glitter paper I couldn't bring myself to throw away. I trimmed it down so it's a little shorter than the other scrap just to balance out the heavier circle on the right.

You want to know what's crazy? I was trying to see if this stamp was still kicking around anywhere, and a stamp by the same company is featured on an MIT website! It looks like the script stamp I used. Here are two other views of that project on their site - a closed view and a back view. Here's the native page - I bet they don't even know it's there!
