thanks so much for sharing your excitement about all my new stamps and art parts...
ART FRIENDS are the best!
the stamps & art parts were a blast to design &
let me tell you...
they are even more fun to USE!
I am TOTALLY over the top thrilled...
and counting the SECONDS 'til I see them on display @ CHA...
today I have a "special announcement" that has been another thrill for me...
RANGER will now be stocking ALL my products...
so STAMPS, ART PARTS & the "Clearly" products will all be available directly from Ranger...
for store owners,
that means one stop CHA shopping...
anything I demo with or used in my Ranger booth samples
will be available right from Ranger!
HUGE THANKS to Alain, Justin & Tim for having faith in me...
I appreciate your support!
and I'll say it for everyone to hear...
I LOVE RANGER...
it's as simple as that!
one more thing before chatting about today's stamp set...
I think there was some confusion about the "creative covers" post from yesterday.
included in each kit are 4 art parts covers & 4 art parts spines...
these are not tim's ring binders...
they are the ART PARTS spines with holes to perfectly fit tim's ring binder...
you will want to get the ring binders from your LSS or from your favorite on-line shopping site...
ok...back to stamp business...
set #11 is a large set called...
A FORM OF ART...
"Be yourself" is a nice large stamp (4 1/2 inches) that fits in the large book plate that I showed yesterday...
I have a very fun...
out of the box project completed...
and it was perfect...
I like the mixed funky font & it's a reminder that you do NOT have to be like everyone else...
just be you...
the dress form stamp is a perfect fit for...
an ART PART!...
it's about 3 1/4 inches tall...
this is fun to "dress up" with all sorts of fun embellishments...
after it's stamped...
and speaking of dress forms...
here's another ART PARTS...
dress form...
I inked this one with butterscotch pigment ink &
I used the medicine bottle label to stamp over it...
it's 4 inches tall...
flat out...
HOOKED...
the distressed font makes me think that it was used
"out in the field" to collect evidence...
"every accomplishment" is good for cards for all sorts of occasions...
and again...
for art journals/mixed media art too...
this ledger page is from a vintage notebook that we rescued from an antique mall...
I loved the writing & the numbers...
it had to come here to live...
it's good sized @ about 4 inches tall...
and makes a good background...
the last stamp has a little story associated with it...
in my other life,
I was a surgery nurse manager...
one of my favorite surgeons was an orthopedic surgeon &
from the moment we met, we connected...
he was originally from Korea & has a wonderful funny personality...
his name is Bok Choi...
one day he told Rick that he liked me because I was a little sweet, a little SPICY (because 'd yell @ him when needed) and I had an attitude...
attitude? imagine that! YIKES!
it became a standing joke between us...
I'd yell...he'd say "she's spicy today"...
so that's how the bottom stamp came to be...
I think it fits well with the things we make...
I plan on using it with "the queen" stamp...
and with the new silhouette stamp I showed a few days ago...
I liked her attitude...
this next photo shows another
FAVORITE new ART PART...
it's a pocket watch...
it's sized to fit a configurations compartment...
or it's the perfect embellishment for a collage...
it's simple to use...
a 2 inch circle punch is the exact size of the opening...
so, no need to try & cut a perfect circle...
there's that medicine label again...
I use it on almost very project these days...
addicted...
the photo shows the pocket watch in tim's printer tray...
along with that adorable coat hanger paper clip...
ART PARTS & idea-ology...
we have a total of
40 new ART PARTS being released...
they have been divided into 12 packages
plus the 2 creative covers packs...
so, we have a total of 14 art parts sets...
today I want to show you these art parts...
scallop trim...
there are 3 sizes designed to fit the configurations compartments...
I've used them on everything...
you'll be noticing that, I'm sure...
a heart, the same size as this heart stamp...
and RESIDENCES...
be still my heart...
3 sizes of houses...
they are 6, 4 and 3 inches tall...
I LOVE these so much...
I used all I initially got & HAD to order more...
they are so fun...
they come with 2 styles of roofs & a mini door...
for lots of mix & match options...
I didn't used those pieces on this sample...
how cute is the fractured doll?
and the plaquette and that hanger again?
more...ART PARTS!
the scroll/leaf is 4 1/2 inches long...
so any of my background stamps will cover it with one stamping...
lots of backgrounds = tons of options...
this one has been meadow color washed &
stamped with this background...
*FYI*
color washes are PERFECT misted over art parts...
just mist & dry...
the mini hand made me flip...
it's sooooo stinkin tiny cute & just 2 1/8th inches tall...
another perfect fit for those configurations...
and the art parts flower is mini too...
there are 8 new art parts flowers in that set
& a mini stem too...
I'm hoping to have the art parts package photos before I head off to CHA...
if I do...
I WILL certainly share them here...
PHEW...lots of beans spilled today...
and I still have 3 more stamp sets and
a few more surprises...
coming soon...
nails & a hairdo today...
I'd really rather...
make art!

Wendy, Art form is my favorite stamp so far - I really, really like this one and can't wait to get my hands on it!
Lovin' the new art parts - any thoughts of selling these in bulk so we can fill bins with bits and pieces? I would love to see type trays filled with your art parts in my craft room!

I am so loving all the new art parts and stamp sets too!! You have a gift, not only as an artist, but also in the way you relate to your FANS! I love that you were a surgical nurse....I always say that my hobby is my left brained activity in my right brained world!!!

Wendy -
Too many wonderful things to process all at once. I LOVE that stamp set and in particular, the last sentiment and the dress form. ANd in case you didn't know, I'm an Arts Parts Junkie! I LOVE them, gotta have the pocket watch, the dress forms, that sweet teeny tiny hand, the flowers, oh heck - ALL OF THEM!!!!
Elaine Allen

Oh my goodness, another stamp set that I will have to buy! And all the art parts, so amazing! Just loving all the sneak peeks! And I went to Ranger first before your blog and saw about the distress stains. Oh how am I going to afford buying all this new stuff! Must pace myself.

Congrats on Ranger stocking your stuff, that is awesome now I have another spot to look for you and Tim ! You gotta love Ranger. The house's are so cute .. I can't wait for those to hit the store. I love the attitude stamp, kinda remind me of me :) Have a great day Wendy !
Oh, dear, how will I ever be able to pick what to get first?!! LOL
I'm over the moon impressed with what I'm seeing! Do you need a house cleaner or cat sitter? I'd work for goods! :)
I'm going to sleep each night dreaming of acquiring all the arts parts and new stamp sets! And, what perfect timing! My brand new craft/classroom will be completed within the next 2 weeks! I'm planning on lots of extra storage space for all my new stuff! lol
todays reveal is so far my favorite, from the dress form to the wonderful sayings, this is a must have set for me.
O.M.G. for cryin' out loud, Wendy, I was really hoping I wouldn't have to take out another "CHA" loan this year, but it looks like I will have to. The new art parts are fabulous, and I will want one of everything. Stamps are so fun, and I'm sure I will end up with all of them. My "art friends" tease me - So, is there a Wendy Vecchi stamp you don't have?? I say NO!
dress forms, every girl should have dress forms for creativity! Thank you for your best set of stamps yet!
OMG
JUST OMG
\it's all looking good.
