some great stamps




One of the perks of being an AOC for Stampington is that they send me stamps to use. I have lots of them that are wonderful and fit in with all I make, but my absolute favorite is the Clearly Impressed collection by Michelle Ward, Swirls. (and no I don't get a commission on these :), nor am I required to talk up Stampington stuff... I mention them only 'cause Stampington stuff ROCKS!)

I used them in decorating this little handmade book. I am working on projects right now that combine my own words, photos and paint. These swirls have just the right arty whimsical look I was going for.

  1. Hi Shona,
    You are right--those swirl stamps are just terrific--they look like hand-drawn doodles.

    I love the textures you are achieving in your book--the doll photo really appeals to me--very mysterious and a little dark.

    I've been meaning to tell you how much I liked your collages in the latest Somerset--the red against the teal is a color combo I love!

    Happy Thanksgiving to you too!
