Bag Stamps/Logos?

Post by Donovon »

I was wondering what other stitchers use to stamp their logo things onto their bags. I've noticed everyone sort of has their little design that add to their bags. Some i see wear off, others tend to stay on.
Just curious,

Bump

Alright, ive done a lot more looking around and have noticed:
-(Bear bags) Two bear'paw prints on some of Brian Bear's bags
-(Turtle Bags) A thread with Aaron Shepherd mentioning drawing a turtle on his as an option
-(Bomb bags) 3 dots, which look drawn, on Cale McCoy's bags.

Anyone care to share more details? Anyone use anything but a marker?

I vaguely remember someone saying how they carved their logo in an eraser, then dipped it in fabric paint and stamped in on the bags. I think it would work.. it would just be difficult to carve the eraser.

This would seem like the best way to go about it. Just remember to carve the logo mirrored (Flipped horizontally) so it appears correctly on the bag.

My logo was my big dream for 5-6 years, I have tried to drown it much time, but I never succeed it :(
About one mouth ago, near after my last competition (footbagovica) drown OB logo my very good friend who is great graffiti artist in my town.
So, this was my first step to successful own oshbag logo. If I have drown logo on paper I have gown to advertising agency where I was printing t-shirts and posters for my last competition. In agency I talk everything what I need, and he chosen technology for making logos.

used technology:
Unique printer printed on rubber foil colour which I needed (black, white, yellow). Printer also trimmed it. After it was ironing (re entoil). Cut odds and ends was removed.

pictures:
there is jacket with footbagovica logo:

what i did was i took a stamp (you can use an already made one, have one made with your logo, or carve one out of a rubber eraser) and i took fabric screenprinting ink (speedball) and stamped onto my panels before i cut them out.
