Some stampers say they have trouble creating cards for the men in their lives. I don't have that problem. I think whatever hobbies your favorite guy is into will make a great theme for a card. Here are some sports car and other designs that I've done in the last several months.
I swear I don't know where the time goes! Before I saw the date on the last post I would have sworn it was only since the beginning of the year. No way I would have said 1 1/2 years. It's been too long. So, how are you?
Since my last post I've been trying to get better at my flower making skills and I've also made an effort to get back to my stamping. Being on the Altered Pages and DIY design teams was a wonderful opportunity to grow as an artist, but it meant that I didn't just sit down and play with the old stuff in my studio because I had deadlines to meet. That design team really expanded my mixed media skills. I hope to be on another design team some day, but for now I'm taking it leisurely and playing around with my stamps more - both old and new.
Here are some things that have been keeping me busy. Today I'll start with some stamped cards. None of these use just a single company. I just designed with the stamps in my collection.
Can you spot what all of these cards have in common? That's right. They all have multiple stamped images. Some are masked and stamped on a single sheet of card stock and others are cut out and pasted into a scene. After 25 years in the hobby, I still love my stamps!
