here we go...
NEW studio 490 stamp set #11...
"believe in art"...
I loaded up this sheet with so many images that we had to put some sideways on the storage sheet...
YIKES...it's a stamp overload!
the tour starts on the left...
another flea market find...
this "vintage ad" has so many elements/words that can be used alone...
you can bet I'll be using "plants & flowers" as a sign...
the mini clothes are fun to cut out & layer for dimension...
this works with the steampunk craze too...
"she opened her eyes"...
a fun saying for altered projects...
"who you are"...
simple but true...
I used this framed in the square art parts book plate for one of the projects in book #5...
this is a good stamp for using the individual words...
and it's fun to color in the open letters...
"she always felt different from the others"...
another fun saying for edgy art...
I *think* I'm liking the word edgy...
do you?
"she was certain she could, so she did"...
I wanted more sayings to use with faces, birds & butterflies...
it's also good for a graduation card...
promotion @ work etc...
"she believed she could be"...
another fun altered art saying...
like above, good for a graduation card...
promotion @ work etc...
or just a pep talk...
and finally..."normandy lace"...
another vintage find...
this is a large background/border...
good for stamping on a large area or use it as a background stamp for small art parts pieces...
here's "believe in art"...
the set with the sideways stamps...
this is called "potpourri of parts"...
and it is LOADED with 20 art parts...
as you can see, there are flowers, a stem with leaves that can be used with these flowers or any flower...
the leaves @ the top are sized for these stamps, or they can be stamped with any background stamp for unlimited possibilities...
I LOVE the layered lamps...
I love them so much I HAD to do 2...
one smaller than the other...
same with the flower pots...IN LOVE...
and the flourishes...I thought we needed 2 sizes...
this is indeed...
a potpourri of parts!
it's 5 1/8th inches tall...
it was designed to fit the new SERUM OF ART label...
I like to ink it, then crackle it with tim's rock candy crackle paint...
and then to make a seal with Ranger's Memory Foil Tape...
here's a mini peek of a project I made for tim's Advantus booth...
.
the editing is DONE for book #5...YIPPEE...
(yuck job!)
I'll get the BOOK prototypes @ CHA...
can't wait to see it in person...
and I'll try my best to snag one to give away here...
the cover looks like this...
with the SERUM of ART label I mentioned above...
after CHA, the art adventure starts again...
first stop is a brand new store for me with a cute name...
it's Cafe Crop...
it's located in Crown Point, Indiana, which I understand is not too far from Chicago...
so I can drive! I LOVE that!
I hope to see some Illinois & Michigan friends there too...
since this seems to be a good central midwest location...
Here's a link to the classes...
just scroll down to see them...
hope you can join the inky fun on Friday evening August 12th & on Saturday August 13th...
after that, I head farther east to The Stamping Place...
it's in West Columbia South Carolina...
a GREAT store...
an awesome classroom...
& a fun staff!
tomorrow is FINALE FRIDAY...
the last of the new stamp sets...
and the last art part reveal...
kind of sad that's it's over...
I *think* Friday's frame is my most favorite art parts LARGE frame...
and that's why I saved it for last...
thanks for stopping by & leaving comments & sending emails...
I LOVE hearing your thoughts...
see you tomorrow...
for FINALE FRIDAY...
I'll show you a project
that will bring back memories & I HOPE...
make you laugh...
until then...
make art!

My turn to win ! I'm sure everyone else will understand :)
ReplyDeleteIt is impressive how vintage is getting popular specially those ads. Indian Pharmacy tries that kind of ads and it was a huge success.
