Self Portrait Rubber Stamp

I have been meaning to make this stamp for a long time, but was a little reluctant because I thought it might be too difficult.  I decided to give it a go and am quite pleased with the result.  I used a photograph and applied a filter in Photoshop which gave a line drawing effect – then refined this image for transferring on to the stamp with pencil. I have stamped it with Ranger Archival Shadow Grey ink pad to reflect my transition to Silver since I stopped dyeing my hair – 2 years in May!
