Addiction. Vertical Addiction. V_Beechwood Stamp

The inspiration for this stamp came from a weathered corner of a house's wall. I loved it so much that I wanted to preserve it permanently and turn it into a stamp, to be placed somewhere in my everyday collages. It was originally named "Hometown." During the initial design drafts, I faced some challenges: how to make it suitable for collage applications without losing the original concept? This was the design principle I valued most. After countless revisions, only the mottled texture of "Hometown" remained. The core element in the center, however, was the first stamp from the "Stationery Addict's Wine Label" series, a design that was never publicly released. Unexpectedly, after hundreds of days, they have been reunited to form a brand-new creation, reborn as the "Medieval Gallery" series. I believe they might have been waiting for each other, needing only an opportunity and the right time. The story behind the birth of "Addiction" is our shared secret. "Addiction" can help you record your "Addiction" items, the "Date," and the "ALC. %VOL." This isn't about alcohol addiction, but rather an elegant addiction inherited from medieval salons, accompanying you through your most unforgettable pages.
