try to say that title quickly 10 times...lol!
first...some random catch up things...
I wanted to share a link to Snazzy's DT blog...
where this month the focus is on studio 490...
each DT member was given the stamp set of their choice & a package of Clearly For Art...
how fun!
you'll see some awesome art there...
and I wanted to let you know that they are giving away a studio 490 stamp set...
just incase you like rubber stamps...
check it out HERE...
Gillian is their DT coordinator...
you can find her blog HERE...

NORTH SOUTH EAST & WEST...
that's the start of my teaching lineup for this year...
the schedule, so far, is on the right sidebar...
and speaking of Clearly For Art...
I got an email yesterday telling me about 4 videos that were filmed @ this past CHA...
they were recently uploaded to YouTube...
the video is broken down into 4 segments...
if you're interested...
it's best to watch them in order...
it's the CLEARLY FOR ART SCOOP...
DO NOT LAUGH @ how I talk with my hands...
YIKES...
I tease Rick about this all the time & I am as BAD...
if not WORSE than he is...
the teasing will stop...
immediately...
I had NO clue...
anyway...
here are the video links...
and the last...
next up...
for some reason, I've had some questions about altered books lately...
it's ironic...
since the very first classes I ever taught were altered book classes...
I had taken a class from Beth Cote...
hmmm...wonder where she is...
anyway, I had an idea to put a whole different twist on the class & that was actually the beginning of my teaching love...
my first published art was in Beth's book...
Altered Books 102...
if I can find my copy, I'll show you what I did...
I have some ideas brewing...
I want to incorporate my stamps, art parts & Blossom Bucket embellishments...
I hope I can play with this idea soon...
next...
THANKS so much for the comments about the last technique post...
it's real fun...
give it a try...
here's what LADY DY had to say...
Whey hey, have a look at Wendy taking the mick out of me, cheeky mare, lmao.
I think I'll need an interpreter for that one...LOL!
now about that free rubber...
I have 2 favorites sets to send out...
the first is European Art...
this is my most favorite...
ever...
I know I say it lots...
but it's true...
I love this set & I'll be happy to send it off to a good home...
I LOVE the

the coordinating art part ...
love the flower LOTS...
LOVE the floor plan...
love the sayings...
and I'd LOVE to send it to a random commenter...
this is one of the projects in my new book...
it was a blast to make...
and I'm thrilled with how it turned out...
were the starting point for this stand alone piece...
they're very sturdy...
so it worked just as I imagined...
I like when that happens...
the jar looks fab with
and here's another piece that focuses on the European Art set...
I LOVE this new art parts dimensional sign board...
there's 2 complete boards in each package for double the fun!
do you see another
I've been telling you that they are addicting...
they're like chips...
you can't do just one!
the airmail piece & the postage mark are both Blossom Bucket embellies...
they'll be arriving in April!
I CAN. NOT. WAIT. to use them in classes...

Wendy, your stamps are terrific! I would totally love to see your first published art. How long did it take you to get started with your own line? How did you start? Just a few questions as someday I'd like my own company or line of crafty stuff. Thanks so much for sharing!

Of course mason jars are so huge right now. Your stamp set would be perfect to join the mason jar fun.
Just stunning projects Wendy, I'm always in awe of how you use all the different products and stamps. Gorgeous stamps and I have everything crossed very tightly ! Sue C x
Love, love the European Art stamps and your projects are absolutely wonderful. Lady Dy is saying that you were making fun of her (in the nicest possible way!) - she has an amazing way with words.......thanks for the opportunity to win some stamps.
Luuuurving that new Art parts board and the totally awesome European look - darn it looks so cool I should go and live there myself- oh boy I do!

Hi Wendy -
When Lady Dy made that comment did you just look at her and say "huh"? LOL! She is such a funny lady. Hmm wonder why you two get on so? Your art pieces are gorgeous, love them. And the stamps, well, I do love them both, but I must admit that Eurpean Art is my favorite of the two, love those bottles and that awesome car! Have a grand weekend. Now I am off to watch your videos. Promise not to laugh (much)!
Elaine Allen
Loving both these cool new sets!!
Love the new ArtParts and stamps oh and the new embellishments! Can't wait until they arrive in the UK.

I would be worried if you didn't love all your stamps, Wendy. It's a bit like picking your favorite child, I would think. I love the European set having been born in Amsterdam. I know I'd reach for that set often. Thanks. Have a great weekend.
Marjan
Huge fan of your art - love the pieces with the man and the gears - but more than that love the Essence of Art set - here's hoping ...

Great stuff you have and that's not just for the free rubber stamp set that's for sure. great work

WOW! Your tutorials are truly inspirational! Next week my agenda has to include some Clearly For Art "playtime." You really need to make a DVD of tutorials and ideas to sell along with your books. Everytime I see you demo something, I learn so much and want to "dive right in" to the technique!
Wendy, I really, really, really need some new rubber in my life!
