The Man In a Hat stamp is one I made myself (with my Imagepac) from a royalty-free image from Free Vintage Digital Stamps, stamped onto the reverse side of a piece of Centura Pearl card. I masked the image with a Post-It, stamped the letter "h" and masked that off as well, then stamped the newsprint (Headlines!) (stamp from Creative Expressions). I removed the mask from the "h" but left the mask over the Hat Man until after I'd coloured the background with Mustard Seed and Scattered Straw DI's. And that's it! Hope you like it - and thanks for coming by!

H is for...
Hi bloggers, and welcome to my little corner of the Blogiverse. Today, gentle visitor, I am showing my entry into the Craft Barn Alphabet challenge (details here). This fortnight's letter is H - for Hat. On the Head, of a rather Handsome chap.

How clever are you making that stamp! It is fabulous and the beauty of it is that it is unique (unless you make more and sell them) to you! Hugs, Anne x
What a fabulous stamp you created, bravo!! Great minds think alike, I too went with H for hat, nut mine isn't near as sophisticated as yours :0) Mo
That's fabulous.
A very distinguished gentleman with a very proper Hat! Cool that you made the stamp!
Very creative. I love your use of masks.
Fantastic and a great word to chose
Love Chrissie xx
Ah, I tried to think of a clever comment with lots of H's in... I failed... but I love your handsome chap in a hat

Wow making your own stamps how clever and what a wonderful stamp this one is. I love the layers of ink and the image is stricking

Great job! I love your stamp!
Clever use of masking and I love that background stamp. Hugs, Jenny x
love your handsome fellow in his hat, what a great stamp
Great handsome man in his hat!!
At first, I thought you had chosen "hat" ;-)
But Handsome chap works too. We need to see the definition somewhere though to enter the challeng ;)
Thanks for playing with us at the Craft Barn

Great image and choice of words.
It's an H fest. Great image and colours
Love your choice of stamps.
Lovely image he is a Handsome chap!
Lovely card - and your chap is really handsom in his hat!
I love that image, and it makes a wonderful stamp! Valerie
The background shows of the Handsome Chap in a Hat very well, I love it.
