I’d like to introduce VICKI BOUTIN and her new CREATIVE FOUNDATIONS line of stamps!!!  She has recently authored an AMAZING .. YUMMALISH-OUS MIXED MEDIA BOOK which I think EVERYONE should have in their library 🙂 called CREATIVE FOUNDATIONS

Vicki was kind enough to allow me to give a SIGNED copy away to one LUCKY commentaytah!!  CAN YOU BELIEVE THAT NOW YOU HAVE A REASON TO TALK TO ME VIA COMMENTS? LOL…  you can find it on AMAZON HERE and here is what the book cover looks like.. I LOOOVE IT!!  doesn’t it look YUM?

So if you can put a comment on this post, I will keep it open until MONDAY MARCH 26th and will announce a winnah on TOOSDAY.. k?

Here’s a pic of the cutesy “flippy” (she is known for her wispy flippies..lol her hair- CAN YOU TELL IT’S 2 AM?)

SEE WHAT I MEAN?  she has CUTE WISPY FLIPPIES!!!

and here’s a little bio

“Vicki has loved making pretty things since she was a little girl.  With a background in fine arts and graphic design she was always searching for a creative outlet that was a good fit.  She finally found it in the world of paper crafting after the birth of her first child 10 years ago.  She hasn’t looked back since!

 

In 2006 Vicki became a Creating Keepsakes Hall of Fame winner and went on to be part of Better Homes and Gardens Scrapbooks Etc’s Creative Team.  Her work is currently published in Scrapbooks, Etc and Vicki writes a quarterly article for Scrapbooks and Cards, Today magazine.  She enjoys working closely with a number of the industry’s top manufacturers including Core’dinations, 7 Gypsies, Basic Grey, Little Yellow Bicycle and Pink Paislee.  Vicki is also a Ranger Certified instructor.

 

Vicki is always on a mission to learn something new and then find a way to share it!  That is where teaching comes in.  She has taught workshops in the United States, Canada and Europe and loves to approach art in a fun, fresh and accessible way.  Her motto is “Try anything once.  You won’t know if it’s your style unless you try it!”  Her workshops offer an opportunity to meet new friends, try new things and most of all have FUN!!!

 

Vicki’s first book Creative Foundations hit stores in January 2012 and is jam packed with techniques and ideas to jump start readers creativity.  Look for it at your local book store or online at your favorite book vendor.”

“I live in a small town in central Illinois with my fabulous husband and four kids. My favorite color is pink and my favorite numbers are five and seven. I love my camera, punctuality, cartoons, chocolate ice cream, riding my bike, and Project Runway. I hate circles, shopping, naps, Danielle Steel novels, cleaning, cooking, coffee, hot weather, waking up early, and the television series House. I also hate office buildings, and cough syrup. Every morning I drink a cup of green tea, I have a hard time falling asleep at night, I could eat spaghetti every day, my favorite movie is Lord of the Rings, I have a dry sense of humor, and I’m afraid of heights. ”

Amariah has been such a pleasure to work with.. we worked so close together on these images and they are near and dear to our hearts.. these characters are wistful.. thoughtful.. they are quiet..LOL.. we needed a little change around here no?

And I am SO very EXCITED!

I have decided to start my own line of journaling stamps.. I am so very passionate about Art Journaling.. I am so very passionate about adding texture and “touchability” and interest to my pages and canvases  that I felt the need to create my own line of stamps.  The images are quite simple but everything I have chosen means something to me.. and I hope it stirs something in you as well.. So without further ADOOOOO… Let’s introduce our BRAND NEW… FRESH… EXCITING… (we will be introducing LOTS of new sets…in the near future)

JOURNAL YOUR ART OUT STAMPS

our first set  is for those days where you just DON’T feel like writing much.. you want to write a little bit but just evoke the mood you are in…Simple.  To the POINT (pardon the pun.. Oh I KILL me… LOL)

Introducing: MOODY FINGERS (5 stamps in this set)

Our next image is kind of SOLEMN but HOPEFUL.. if that makes sense.. can fill a void on your pages.. and also can be great on a card.  I LOVE the texture of these birds! There are TWO stamps in this set

Introducing  THINKING BIRDS

And our LAST set for this release is our JOURNAL YOUR ART OUT GRUNGE set #1. ( I know.. EXCITING name)…  I love EVERY SINGLE element in this set.. you can journal in the film square… omg.. possibilities are ENDLESS.. you will see some samples soon.  The problem with stamp sets usually is that you like a couple in one whole set.. and you may just like  a couple in this set but i really don’t think so.. cuz they are ALLLLL awesome..if I do say so myself.  LOL

Here is our GRUNGY SET #1 (look how cute the bar code and the crown is..LOL)

Hope you love these as much as I do!

Now for some Mo’s… when she posted these, I just COULDN’T RESIST!! I immediately thought of the sentiments to go with them.. DEELISH!

Here’s BIG CHAIR-BOY by Mo Manning

and here’s BIG CHAIR- GIRL by MO MANNING

 

And finally.. Friends UNITED was SUCH a popular stamp, we decided to release SHOPPERS UNITED!  Love the sizes and WIDTHS of the leggies..

Enjoy!

Mwah mwah mwah

So our VERY OWN PAULABELLA decided to draw.. UMMM.. one doesn’t just DECIDE TO DRAW do they??  Well SHE DID.. and OMG, her line is outstanding!! I wanted her to call her line “perspectives” because each and every frame has a different perspective on the object.. SHE POO POO’D me.. but I love the name she came up with EVEN MORE.. “ARTIST @ HEART”.. I love love LOVE that name..  You will really enjoy Paula’s stamps… they are FRAMED but you don’t have to cut them perfectly.. they are meant to be wonky so you can hand cut it easily or use a 2″ punch!.. they are a PHENOM focal for a CLEAN and ELEGANT card..

So you haven’t seen EVERYTHING yet.. have you? oh YA.. you haven’t *insert bratty teasing smile here*

Meet BETH… and her company called 3 SISTERS.. when I saw these leggies on PINTEREST, I knew I had to find their “source”.. so OFF I went on a HUNT.. and it wasn’t easy, I might add. But I DID IT because I never let up..LOL until I get my way.  Beth and I HIT IT OFF instantly and I think her whimsical yet POWERFUL (there is a message there)  art with a vintage-Y feel will fill a void that we had.. She is ADORABLE and HILARIOUS.. you HAVE to read some of her blog posts HERE.You will definitely see why I love her so! Here are some pictures and a little bio 🙂

and here’s her bio

Beth Fuller is a busy artist, mother and teacher who lives in a little town in Virginia. She’s been happily drawing since her second grade teacher, Mrs. Hess, LOVED her Dental Health Week poster full of dancing  feather boa-ed women partnered with life-size toothbrushes. Alas, her creative button was pushed and off she went. Beth did actually get a degree in Studio Art at James Madison University in Virginia but has learned since that sheer repetitive behavior is the best way to learn anything. So she makes a lot of art.
Right before her daughter was born three years ago she had a cathartic moment. She was only making art for the magazine, Brain,Child (the magazine for thinking mothers) and not much else. She realized that she was slowly waving goodbye to a huge part of herself. And consequently, the pictures and images she wanted to draw were just piling up in her head quite like the laundry. These ideas didn’t leave much room for the everyday things she needed to remember, like, “Where’s my child? and “Was that my exit?”….so out of sheer necessity and pleasure she began to work and work and work freeing up some precious brain space. And she is enjoying every minute of it.

She came up with the name Three Sisters because of her growing up with two sisters who are her best friends and advisors-good and bad, solicited and not! She thinks that the term “sisters” can be applied to not only biological sisters but the ones we make along the way. She hopes with this new endeavor to be able to share her art with many, many new sisters (advice optional).
Beth’s work has appeared in many publications, online and in galleries. She’s probably making art and PB&J’s as you read this, concentrating very hard in order to spread the peanut butter on the bread and paint on the page.

so you are probably wondering what her images are? hmmmm?

Here is the image that started it all.. felt empowering and again a little goofy ;).. I LOVE this image

here’s FRIENDS UNITED (including the sentiment)

I made a canvas board with this image and framed it.. and I love it.. the only thing is that my CHILDREN DECIDED TO TOUCH THE GLASS and I didn’t realize it..LOL so don’t pay ANY attention to the fingermarks N’K?

Here’s a closeup so you can see the texture and sheen..

Another one of Beth’s images is a vintage GUMBALL machine.. I FELL IN LOVE the second I saw it.. and I put the sentiment, you are one in a million.. just so you can colour only ONE of the gumballs.. smart, no?  Please note that on Paula’s project below, it is NOT the font that comes with the image… check the image on the website for the proper font.

and if you wanna WIN THE FRAMED IMAGE BELOW.. SIGNED AND LOVED BY PAULABELLA, you bettah RUN and place a comment on her post so you have a chance to win it!!  it’s PRICELESS, I SAY!  Contest closes THURSDAY at 6pm

Here’s the VINTAGE GUMBALL MACHINE

Beth’s THIRD image is a HIWHEEL bicycle.. I LOVE this.. I can’t wait to stamp it in my journal or send it to an old friend who shares lots of memories with me 🙂

Are these not GREAT images? OMG.. I LOVE BETH!

Mwah to da sistahs who LOVEY da release!

****p.s. ART JOURNALING MONDAY will be posted on TOOSDAY***

Em

Sistahs sistahs SiStaHs.. where have you been all my lifeeeeee?  I am thrilled with the comments and according to my stats there are LOTS more sistahs lurking and not saying a PEEP (get it? PEEP?  there ARE some PEEPS coming too ya know!).. So YANK YOURSELVES OUT of lurkdom and place a comment.. I promise I don’t bite.. ok maybe I do.. when I am hungry.. which seems to be a LITTLE TOO OFTEN of late (lol on the OF LATE..)… how these things come out of my mouth/fingers, I don’t know….

ok so we have been happy so far with our uptownies.. OUI OUI?  Let’s see a couple more today.. one more tomorrow just to spice things ups.. I will also feature PAULABELLA’S “ARTIST @ HEART”  line of stamps.. you WILL FAINT.  I love this release.  *sigh*.. I KNOW I KNOW I KNOW I say it every time.. and I MEAN it every time…  EACH stamp means something to me.. I guess that’s why I am so passionate and “noisy” about it…

Here is UPTOWN GIRLS CHELSEA and LAUREN eating their SUSHI… (I LOVE sushi).. and take a looky at the sentiment and what a PHENOM job CATHABELLA did with this stamp!!

Now let me just ‘splain the sushi thing… I LOVE sushi.. I know that it is a hit and miss thing and some people don’t like it.  The reason I chose Sushi, is that SUSHI goes beyond the food itself.. Sushi is a “social” food.. so Chrystal really got the image right.. it’s more the “catching up” or the “gabbing” that goes with the sushi than the sushi itself!  Ok speaking of Gabbing.. remember on the Muppet show I think it was Fozzy bear (OMG remember him???) used to tell jokes and this HUGE CANE would appear and drag him away? LOL.. I feel that that Cane is coming to get me.. so I will shuDDup now

Finally, Here is CATHABELLA’S outstanding cardabella.  I mean SERIOUSLY. hmph.

Ok and now for a BONUS card.. here’s PAULINEABELLA’s AMAZING card!!  This uptown girl’s name is POSH.  I am not quite sure why.  Oh ya.. Denabella named her… and the name stuck.  She is kinda poshy, no?  I think she is GORGEOUS.. for a birthday card.. even Christmas you can dress her up!  All occasions.. she is just so pretty.  I think I am gonna have Chrystal (lulu artist) come over and remove some lines from me and add a few.. HOW AMAZING would that be if we could really do that! LOL. 

OK you ready?

REALLY READY?

Here’s Paulineabella’s masterpiece.

How LUCKY am I to have the BEST design team in the industry.  I mean REALLY.   I mean COME ON.  Are they not AMAZING? 

So again.. today I am offering these 2 STAMPIES as a prize for a random comment winnah.  Place a comment.. tell me how much you love me..LOL (just kidding.. not really).. and tell me how AMAZING our DT is… or just say hi.  Doesn’t mattah!  I just wanna hear from you.  And if you have to post TWICE to make me look popular, so be it. 🙂

Mwah to da sistahs who will TRY sushi if they haven’t yet… LOL
