Printable Vintage Image Sheet

I love setting them up like this because I don’t waste that expensive transparency film by only printing out a few images this way:

Is it just me, or if you buy a storebought card, do you feel horribly guilty? I just finished up a big project for a submission, am working on the skinny book swap and am still trying to finish up a few series I started. I simply don’t have enough art time to make birthday […]

Nestabilities Preview at Frantic Stamper

Frantic Stamper has a preview of a really neat new Wizard product up. The Nestabilities dies really will cut down on storage space and I see so many possibilities for awesome card, scrapbook and mixed media art.

A Birthday Present from My Little Niece

Isn’t this cute? My five year old niece made it for me as a surprise. Note the use of the rose stamp and the different background effects. She told me she’s going to be an artist when she grows up and I said I think she’s already an artist.

Learn Something New Challenge Charm

Here’s another charm I made using shrink plastic. I stamped a rose from Rubber Stampede on the plastic three times and then rubbed a yellow ink pad over it. Even though the images were stamped with permanent ink, there was a bit of smearing. Next time, I think I will do the ink pad first. […]
