Love! How are you enjoying carving those pentel erasers?

These carve like butter and the details are crisp. Adapting one's designs for the curved eraser edges has been part of my learning curve. Combining numerous erasers to make one design is fun and I'll be trying more of these over the 100 day challenge. I'll be sharing lots more regularly in my newsletter.

These are great! I've seen people use pink erasers, which brand do you use please Coco? 😊

Hi Nell. I'm happy you enjoyed seeing these videos. The Pentel Hi-Polymer Erasers are the brand I love to use. I buy them in boxes of ten as once you get carving, it's easy to use a couple up at a time. I'll be sharing more about my hand-carving and designs in upcoming posts. If you have more questions, I'm happy to answer them. Happy stamp creating :)
