It's all about the nest....

This card was created with the intention of having the nest be the most important part.
I think I succeeded...

Paris Exposition 1889

I found this really cool Paris Pattern Paper at my LSS and thought it was just perfect for the Paris Exposition plate.  I did a little bit of collage stamping on the Caramel card stock. The faces are stamped in Black Archival on White and adhered to a piece of Tim Holtz Film Strip.  The other stamped images are adhered to a Fragment.

It's Mardis Gras, Y'all!!!


Still can't believe it's already almost Lent...wasn't Christmas just yesterday! Enjoy your Shrove Tuesday, and let's hope NO ONE gives up stamping for Lent. Although, it would truly be a sacrifice.

Sisterly Love

Don't you just love when a project comes out just as you had imagined!  Here I paired up the girls from Birds of a Feather with the frame from the Playtime plate.  I just love using this frame to add other Artistic Outpost images.  The images are Watercolored with markers.

Live in the Sunshine

joie de vivre

 
I am so thrilled to join such a wonderful Design Team! When I first got the Paris Exposition stamps I couldn't wait to start creating with them. This mixed media piece uses stamps from the new plate as well as a stamp from the Bluebird plate. 

One of the great things about Artistic Outpost rubber stamps is that they work so well together - you can mix and match stamps from different collections and they will complement each other perfectly.

Congratulations on being published!


Like so many of you out there, I love stamping magazines and publications. I love getting ideas from them and seeing how other stampers have used images, paper, and ink to create amazing creations.


So you can only imagine my amazement when three of our favorite publications featured cards with our stamps!!!

Congratulations to Lisa Somerville who has 3 entire pages devoted to her impeccable cards in Take Ten.

Another shout out to Sharon Briss in this months issue of The Stamper Sampler.

Be sure to check out Shelly Hickox's card in this month's issue of The Technique Junkies. It's stunning and a cool technique to boot.

Congrats, y'all!
