Video #560: Hand crafted stamps designed and created by a talented polymer clay artist from the West Coast of British Columbia, Canada.
Topics Covered In This Video:
- A while ago I introduced you to the Vancouver Polymer Clay Guild and one of the Artists featured was Joan Tayler (it was her beautiful Blue Fish on the opening screen of the video).
- Joan designs her own original rubber stamps and sells them on Etsy under the name JoanTaylerDesign.
- Joan sketches all her designs by hand.
- She only has a few stamps at a time available. Making new ones as she wants to, rather than mass producing.
- This keeps her line fresh and original, which is great if you are using her designs in your artwork.
- Her policy for use is that you can use her stamps to make art with to sell, but you can’t use them to make your own stamps to sell.
- Some of her designs are done in a mosaic style (many different designs on one sheet.
- They are unmounted Rubber Stamps with nice deep texture.
- I demo some neat uses for her rubber stamps in this video.!

You’re welcome Monique! I take it you already own some of Joan’s stamps?
Yes, I bought her “Dragon” stamp two years ago, and I use it frequently and love it. It seems to be a perpetual favourite as she is still selling that design. I think you mentioned in the video how Joan’s designs have lots of variation within a single stamp… big plus :)

Nice video and Souffle is a great idea for stamps!
*Just a note that there is no “s” at the end of Joan Tayler Design on Etsy (I tried it without luck) so it’s http://www.JoanTaylerDesign.Etsy.com …and her shop says on vacation until Aug. 30th just FYI. :)
Can’t wait to see her designs!
Joan is currently on vacation. Nothing on her site .Boooohooooooooo. I will check back later. TY Cindy for suggesting her rubber stamps…….
Her shop is now open if you want to go check it out Patt.
Love the stamps. Will have to get a few!
My newest creative endeavours are paper crafting with stamps. So I absolutely loved this. I jumped right over to Etsy to buy, and she didn’t have any stamps there for sale:(.
Thanks for the tut.

Hi!
Loved seeing Joan Tayler stamps and I know that you can do wonderful things with stamps and clay. I have been an avid stamper for a LONG time and wanted to mention that if any of you would really like to have an amazing overview and way to see MANY stamps try googling: RubberStampMadness. It is the site of the best stamp magazine EVER, and you’ll find SO much to look at! Give it a try! Thank you Cindy for another great video!
I’ll have to check that out Julia! Thanks for the new resource!
