You WILL...

delight in the details of this book.
I promise!

My friend, Lisa Pace's new book was just released @ CHA!

A GIANT...

YIPPEE, LISA!!
I'm so very proud of you!

This book is totally awesome & so well worth the wait...
like 2 bloody years...
and you know ...I am NOT patient...

I read it cover to cover on the flight home...

I KNEW I'd be impressed because I LOVE LOVE LOVE Lisa & her style...

But I have to say...

It's even better than I expected.

40 techniques...

100 projects...

awesome step by step photos...

each page shows projects photographed with just the right props, which makes it even more inspiring...

here's the cover...



oh look...
a project using a studio 490 large butterfly stamp...


and another of my stamps...

the large leaf...

sure looks different when used with felt...



this project is probably my favorite...
for today @ least...

plain old white felt...
transformed by Lisa into this georgeous album...
it's totally amazing...

it was on display in the Maya Road booth & believe me...
it's BEAUTIFUL...




You can get a signed/personalized copy from Lisa HERE.

Back to the Q & A tomorrow...

until then...

may you...

delight in the details...

and then...

make art!

    Lisa's book looks very inviting! I agree, it's just amazing how different an image can be when used on a variety of mediums. Can't wait for my new stamps to arrive!

    I got to see it at CHA. It is a really, really good book. So many books published for scrapbookers, cardmakers, etc. are "out of style" in a year--Lisa's book is not like that. It is one that you will want to hang on to, and reference over and over again.

    Thanks for sharing; one thing I so admire about you and Tim is your generosity in promoting the work of others. You don't see that a lot in this competitive society, and I appreciate it greatly.
    Now, I'm off to make art!
