stamps are NOT only for cards ya know…

sistahs.. I have been playing around in between migraines and kidlets and boy did I have fun.. After experimenting in art journaling for the last 2+ years, I have figured out what I LOOOVE to do (i know I’m a little slow).. I LOOOVE collage.. there is something about vintage ephemera, embellishments.. the action of  ripping, cutting and placing “just so” that makes me giddy.  i LOOOOVE painting… layering… colour makes me HAPPY… I love STAMPING (imagine if I didn’t??? LOLOL)  and the fact that it makes me feel like an artist… it’s so magical and of course I love everything else.. hmph.  But I am trying to be more focused and concentrating on what I really LOVE to do… LOL.. which is all of the above.

anywayyyyy… I digress.  Just wanted to show you a little som’n som’n I made using our brand new LANTERN FLOWERS (I LOOOOOVE THEM SOOOO MUCH!!!).   One of my suppliers gave me these teeny tiny weeny winy blocks of wood wrapped in canvas.. I think they are 4*4′  She had no idea what to do with them so she gave them to me.  Not only are they great to hang up.. but they can just sit there too.. I LOOOVE them.

it's honestly so much nicer in person 🙂

So really sistahs.. are stampies only for cards?  Nope.  there’s LOTSA things to do with them…

What have you used your stamps for (other than cards)?

Mwah

  1. if I haven’t used stamps on cards: I have used stamps on, and this is only a short list – tshirts, cushions, pillowcases, file folders, ribbons, flower pots, napkins, tableclothes, skin… My motto – If it will take ink or fabric paint, I will stamp it! This is why I told husband I wanted stamps not more computer clip art software.

  2. stamps on candles! stamps on candles!! its super wicked and can even make a delightful gift. yah know, if you’re crafty like that 😉

  3. You are truly blooming into a full-fledged artist Emily. And if this medium gives you the greatest pleasure and allows you to zone-out, then I expect to see many more of these collages from you ?

    Myself, I have utilized my emense rubbah’ stash on such things as wall art, kidlet’s tatoos, napkins, nail art, used food colouring and created a design in a cream of asparagus soup (Yum) and I did some festive shortbread cookies this past Christmas with swirls of icing and coloured sugar. I could go on all day with how I alter things as I just love & treasure my rubbah’, especially *Stamping Bella Stamps* (How was that for a product plug Em?)

    MwAhhh

    1. Girl – you rule in utilization! That is some list you have there. Question – what type of ink and process did you use for your nail art? Sounds intriguing.

  4. Awesome…not that ya have time but …..more mixed media classes i brought my friend t last one she LOVED it!!
