OrientalStampArt was started in 1999. It is a rubber stamping and related applied arts community with special emphasis on Oriental Style Art themes. Our community exists to meet the needs of its world-wide members and provide a forum for learning new techniques which include rubber stamping, polymer clay, collage, mizuhiki, Origami, book making and other paper arts.

Join our on-topic list to share and exchange information with world-wide members from Australia, Tasmania, Malaysia, United States, Canada, Alaska, South America, Japan, New Zealand, Hong Kong, Singapore, Netherlands, Germany, France and many other global addresses. Our members have an active, but voluntary RAK group, an extensive Group File that shows beautiful examples of Oriental Stamping and other paper arts. Because many members may live in communities where art and stamping supplies are difficult to find, we have developed an extensive Group File describing Internet and mail order vendors.

We concentrate on art-related topics. Vendors are welcome to post on Mondays. All sales posts must have a COMM notation in the subject and mention Asian/Oriental stamping materials. Elite Vendors can also post on Thursdays. Our Vendor Liaison will provide information upon joining. ALL vendors must register before posting comms. Register by sending an OSA email once your are approved for membership.

Flames, inappropriate posts and off-topic tangent messages are not tolerated and will result in loss of privileges and/or banning of the member.
