    I'm amazed at all these creations based on 3 little feather stamps. Wow.

    Question: I was totally intrigued by your metal feathers. Did you do something to the edges (roll it or something) so they wouldn't be sharp?

    Thanks for sharing your creativity. You rocked this one.

      I stamped onto the inside of a drinks can, this is quite thin metal. I rolled a dressmakers wheel around them to add detailing, then cut with scissors just outside that line. I didnt do anything else to the edges.They really arent sharp at all. it is possible the work i did on the back of them with the ball tool and the paper stump may have taken any sharp edges off. I didn't think to check if they were sharp before I used those tools, though I don't recall them feeling sharp at any point.
