For my "under the sea creature" hand carved stamp I chose to carve a fish on one side and waves on the other. I also ended up putting a strip of sea grass on one of the edges.

This one is heading to a stamp carver who gave me good advice when I was carving my first stamp. I am pleased with how it turned out. Thank you..........
