click to see the sayings...

LOVE LOVE LOVE 
the giant brick background...


 I LOVE LUCY...
she's embossed & colored with tim's distress markers...
I love that the Picket Fence marker is nice & bright even on my kraft colored art parts...
now Lucy can wear pearls...


here's book #7 ...

if you are attending CHA...
Ted is giving away my new book & I'll be signing them

in the ART GONE WILD
booth #100

Hope to see you there!

THANKS TED!


here come the last 2 
new BLOSSOM BUCKET pieces

the FRONT DOOR AWNING...


is designed to fit over the
Blossom Bucket FRONT DOOR...
see Mr Cheerio Chaps peeking out?



 when I opened the box & saw the awning...

I immediately saw a VISOR...

now the small art chick is really styling...
this was unplanned & I love it when things like this happen...


I flipped when I got this...
WINDOW BOX...


100%...IN LOVE...
OMG this is so stinkin' cute...


it's designed to fit the 

it's open so we can add *THINGS* in it...


or even people...


WOW...so you liked my new
STENCILS FOR ART...
AWESOME...
me too!
THANKS!

I have 3 more to share...

the LARGE HEART...
you get both the stencil & the mask in this package...

I'll be doing lots of blogs posts after CHA, 
showing my take on stencils...
and my stained (distress), stamped, stenciled 
studio 490 style art journal pages...


WARNING...next photo...

I USED PINK...

SHOCKING, I KNOW!
here's a journal page using the heart stencil ...


you had to be expecting...

3 FRESH FLOWERS...



I like to trace them, stamp over the stencil, then go back & doodle over them with random lines to make then look hand drawn...


this one is traced, then inked with distress stains & 
then I added wiggly lines over the petals...

these are FUN...

I also like to add dimension to my art journal pages... 


and...
THE BRICK WALL...

this is so cool because it's perfectly sized to work with 
the brick wall stamp...

stamp the wall using any color ink to make the mortar...
then add the brick color over the stencil...
use them alone or combine them...

and remember...
there are no rules in art...
I made red, brown & even green bricks...
you'll see that in the above photos...


next are all 10 new art parts packages...
if you look at the numbers on the insert, it tells you exactly how many of each piece are included in the package...

BIRDS with Wings...

WILDFLOWERS...

HEARTS, LOVE & STARS...

BUGS & BUTTERFLIES...

TAG TOPPERS...

A PITCHER OF ROSES...
the cut out fits under the solid pitcher, giving us an open space to insert things...

THE GUYS...


THE GALS...

and 2 new art parts that I've not talked about...

FAVORITE FLOWERS...
the half flower on the far right makes shoulders/boobs for several of the girls we have...

it's awesome behind a TAG TOPPER TOO...
scroll back up to the WILDFLOWERS package...you'll see it there...

the flowers on the bottom left make a great collar for the gals!

LOVE the square flowers with the

and the last...
SENTIMENT SPOTS...

these are very versatile...
stamp your saying on them...
they fit on tags...
they make great shelves...
and you can stamp them with any background stamp to create a border...

there's a peek on the art chick/visor tag...

there are 2 styles & 2 lengths ...



so here's the tally...
10 new stamp sets
10 new art parts
6 new stencils
19 new Blossom Bucket "embellish your art" pieces
one book

and 2 new KITS FOR ART...
these have exceeded my expectations...
people who can't get to classes tell me they love them...

these originated per request of store owners...
they are busy & don't have time to plan classes...
so these seem to be a huge help...


GIRLS ARE ALWAYS RIGHT
will ship in August...
it includes instructions, supply list, step out photos, the art parts, Blossom Bucket mini lips & TOP HAT...
it's $14.95

bottom right you'll see the
FUNKY ART ANGEL...

PHRENOLOGY STAMP

 the kit price is $19.95
including the stamp


keep in mind that the kits or book projects 
don't have to be created exactly like the sample...
change the color...
change the background stamps...
make it yours!

this was longer than I planned...

these are my favorites...
