I love Mary's work and have the dragon tutorial, hence where I thought it might be possible to use stamps on the mandrel. (Haven't had the time to attempt the tut yet, As that is on the "off season" attempt list! - when I have time to play.
What I am trying to do is keep the size small enought that I can incorporate the beads into my jewelry work. Most of the Celtic stamps I am seeing are fairly large...easily upwards of three inches. Too big to wrap around the bead and too big for me to tab the glass and stamp it.
