I CARVED my Art into ERASERS?! *satisfying stamp making*

[@KillerCaitie]

I appreciate mistakes being shown and spoken of, as well as how to fix them. Like you said, so many people only show polished results, and so people get discouraged. I haven't done block printing in many years, but now I do want to give it a shot with cheap erasers!

[@jennierodriguez313]

These would be cute enlarged as bookmarks!

[@starladawne4719]

I was thinking how cute it would be to have bookmarks hand-stamped with several of these designs on it.

[@katytener1982]

Hi Mira! These turned out so cute! I love the cat, with and without the face carved into it! Thank you for creating another video like this... I have loved the others where you carved stamps either into erasers or with the regular lino cutting supplies!

[@ChantelleArts]

YOU GOT 48 ERASERS??? 😮 that checked design would be perfect to add to a sketchbook spread, like you would with washi tape to decorate 🥰

[@MiraByler]

That would be perfect for a sketchbook spread!! Now I might have to try this today!! Thanks for the idea 😁💜

[@bluecobaltsteph2689]

Block carving can be dangerous. For instance if you’re an idiot who does it with the block balanced on their lap. 🤔 I wonder if I know anyone who’s done that …….😂😂

I love this idea. They are adorable! The cat is so cute but my favorite is the green flower with pink checkerboard. I'd like to see more. You really do have to focus so you don't cut the wrong pieces out! Good mental practice 😄 I appreciate that you left in the mistake. It's a good reminder that we all make mistakes during the process and not to give up or be too hard on yourself.

[@staceyrawlings1519]

This is something that wasn’t even on my radar but now I want to get together with my girlfriends and make stamps for Christmas cards. This is such a great idea.

I learned block printing in a print shop class in high school in 1970! I still have that block! I've been crafting my whole life. My current interest is bookbinding and creating junk journals. I also enjoy creating collage papers and mark making. I'll have to drag out my carving tools and grab some erasers. Thanks for the fun video. You reminded me how much fun carving is!

[@rainbowartsandcrafts9177]

Your erasers are so cool, well done 😊maybe try taking the stamp to the ink pad and do lots of light tapping, can help with ink coverage xx

[@brickbard]

Oh my goodness I just ordered stuff to do this yesterday! ❤❤ watching with my full attention

[@gruenewolke]

Such a great idea 😊

[@PurpleCastles]

This was so cool and so satisfying to watch! You should also use the eraser shavings for another art project (if you haven't already thrown them away lol). I also really enjoyed the music in the background! You should do more videos like this!

[@brandonroskom5890]

i agree with you about the 'polish' i love that about you. you are very witty.

[@StizelSwik]

I never thought to carve into a pinky!!! Great idea! Did you know you can take those scraps and smush them all together, kneading them like dough will make them great for drawing erasers! the more you knead them, the more they clean up, and the more they mush together! applying a very small amount of heat will help in that process.

[@jorggamingcr409]

This made me remember when I was a kid, i dont remember if it was something from school or an art tv show for kids back then, anyway, this made me remember when i did a personalized stamp with a potato. It was so fun!

[@miiaproductions]

This looks so fun 😄 I’ve seen that my local art store has the supplies I would need for this, maybe I have to try it sometime. I love how the flower turned out, it looks really good both alone and with the checkered pattern 😄💖 you should definitely do this again in the future!

[@KimiPetri]

Omgggg Mira! I’ve been wanting to do this too. What a cheap way to try it out!! Thank you 🙏🏼 😊

[@smilesoftexas]

Great tutorial. Cute stamps!! I am a professional artist and I learned this #1 rule many many years ago. (just re-emphasizing what you mentioned)….Very important rule when using lino cutting tools (or any sharp cutting tools) ALWAYS cut AWAY from your body, fingers, palm of hand!! It is very easy for the tool to slip and, let’s be honest, gouging your body isn’t nearly as fun as making cute stamps!! ❤

[@4kassis]

Wow, she is carving directly towards he fingers!

[@87ashsanchez]

I love this Mira!!!

What you said about wanting to try something out before committing to spending a lot on a hobby you may not enjoy is probably the main reason I love subscription boxes like Scrawlrbox and Artful (Artful actually has a lino printing box, I think you can still buy on their website.

[@yihuiang3165]

My art teacher should have gotten us erasers to carve...then maybe there would be a few stamps created within the whole class...my teacher decided to introduce linoleum carving to us, and made us get a block of pretty expensive lino about A6 size each. Most of my classmates gave up within 10 mins of trying, but i was truly interested, even staying back after school to carve. Until I had a slip of the hand and gave myself a decent cut on a finger. I was 11 and I still remember how I had soaked through all the tissues I had on me despite applying pressure, and dripped blood all the way to the toilet to wash the wound and get more paper to press against the wound. I was pretty impressed I managed to handle all of it without panicking, asking for help or passing out. Fast forward more than a decade - became a doctor, not an artist. Totally makes sense now 😂

[@itschelseakay]

Did anyone else do “Letterboxing” in the 00s? I wish I couldn’t remember what my stamp design was but this was pretty much how everyone made their stamps and it was really fun to see everyone’s designs. One of the last ones I did was in a random cemetery - not even a cool creepy one - and the book was filled with mainly happy-go-lucky stamp designs. So random 😆 I love the cat stamp and wish I saw that one in the cemetery lol

[@Taracinablue]

Cute! I look forward to you doing the other 45 erasers =P

[@mrbigsmile-nr8pj]

Hi! from JAPAN. cat stanp is my favorite one. your cat stanp remind me my cat past away 10years ago.thanks wonderful video😊

[@Lyndaragirl78]

You should take your eraser shavings and make something cool out of them, like a mixed media picture!! Then nothing would be wasted!! 💕💕

[@shawnmariemann]

Really wish the Pink Pearls came in larger sizes just for this. The company knows we do this with them. They are missing out on a market. :-) Also, try inking the stamp instead of pressing the stamp into the pad. Sometimes that works better depending on the stamp pad. One last thing, a brayer over the back of the eraser can sometimes give you a smoother print. (I want to get these and make an alphabet set!)

[@fjolliff6308]

In elementary school I used to carve pencils and erasers with paper clips. It kept me from going insane from undiagnosed ADHD. It kept my hands busy so I wouldn't chew on my fingers and nails as much. I guess I was like a puppy? I'm so glad that there are better tools now, but I would spend hours in school carving flowers into pencils and erasers. Never thought to use them as stamps, I just had pretty erasers.

OMG that cat is so cute ❤ I love Lino cutting but so small is nothing for me. With arthritis in my wrist/hand it is also impossible. I would have head less cats 😂

[@MiraByler]

Haha, head-less cats doesn't sound fun! That is totally understandable that it would be hard to carve such a small surface. Do you do a lot of lino cutting on larger surfaces? If so, that's really cool!!

Baby wipes.

What do you use to clean the erasers? Alcohol? ^^

7:12, Yes that tool is a clay tool it can be used for anything, And I think it's awesome you're using tools from different sets and different things but you have to be really careful because that glue does not stick very well I have 1 of those and I have the clay that goes with it and the spike fell off on my bed and then I could not find it. Please be safe

[@starladawne4719]

You can kneading the shavings together to make putty or a kneaded eraser, sometimes you have to rub them over masking tape to make them just sticky enough to blend together.

[@meechynailedit]

That flower looked like a cute demagorgon lol

[@MelinaFr-mn5qd]

I wanna tryyyy it looks so cool😢😢😢😢😢😢😮😮

[@asashygge]

What if you "print" the flower on two other erasers. Then you could carve away so you have the flower & the stems separate for infinite color mixing! You could even have several different flowers and stem designs! Mix and match as you want both with colors and designs?

[@MiraByler]

That’s a cool idea!

I did this once in art club in middle school. We made our own stamps on linocuts when emojis were becoming a real big thing. We made emoji stamps and I chose the purple devil, but I misunderstood, that when she said to draw two pictures, she meant two of the same emoji. I chose both the devil emojis instead of just doing two of the one devil emoji😅
