3 Ways to Make a Stamp

To make a rubber eraser stamp, start by using a pencil, pen, or marker to outline your stamp design onto the surface of the eraser. Next, cut away the eraser around the design with an X-Acto knife to create a raised stamp. If you want a little more support for your stamp, you can glue the eraser to a piece of wood. Then, dab the stamp on an ink pad or brush a thin coat of paint over the stamp and press it onto a flat surface using firm pressure to see how it looks.
