Darby Stamp by Lush Prints

On Monday, I mentioned that I wanted to work my Lush Prints Darby stamp into my August collage.  Although, it didn't make it into the final piece, the simple silhouette inspired me.  And I wanted to share more about it with you in case you wanted to order a custom-made stamp of your own pup.

I heard about Lush Prints when the creative force behind the company contacted me to advertise here on Dog Art Today.  The person has a gender-neutral name and likes to keep his/her identity private because there is a day job at a prestigious design company to consider.  I was intrigued.  But more than that, I fell in love with the stamps and wanted one.  We negotiated a trade, one month of advertising in exchange for a stamp of Darby, perfect since both cost $35.

I sent off two silhouettes of Darby…

It makes me smile.

See the dog breed stamps available at the Lush Prints Etsy store.  Or email them to custom order one of your own. The process is as fun as the stamp.
