Creative Update

Hello, welcome to a new week!

I've been busy making lots of stamps, teaching classes, designing classes and loving my babies.

Here's an update of how my large mixed media painting is coming along, there's still lots to go on it but I'm very happy with how it's going.

First I sketched then collaged scrapbook papers next I added a blue wash to the sky and a white wash to the dress and road.then i used paint and watercolour crayons to add dimension. Her skirt has about 3 layers of different paint one of the being a pearlesent one which gives it a lovely shine.Today i'll work on the castle, i'm going to print a photo of bricks in my house, print them large and mount them on board- that's the plan any way!

(Sorry about the lines I couldn't get rid of them)

So here's to sharing...New Penguin Parade cards. LOVE this set!
My Lady... mixed media collage. She's all shimmery and beutiful, sitting up on my wall waiting for her words to appear.



I've also sketched out a huge canvas that is my next project and after a quick rearrange of the studio I'll be diving into- cant wait!

Have a happy and safe easter, I'm off to rearrange the studio :)

NEW STAMPS now here!

Wow, I've been busy busy busy here. I've just finished designing and making 15 new stamp sets. I've converted a few more of the rubber designs into clear sets for even better value for you!

All the new sets have been added to the Clear Stamps - Gold Series set on the right.

I also have lots of brand new designs- so many I'm in love with. My absolute favorite right now is the Penguin Parade. I drew this one as I was waiting to pick up my daughter from school on Tuesday- and now Thursday and it's a stamp set -so cool!

I'm going to spend the weekend making samples of them all so I can share with you.
The new stamps will be added to the paypay widget very soon. The first 31 sets are already on there.

Have a happy crafty easter and Be Safe,
Sarah

Wonderful Life

It's been a while since I've been here- a very busy month!

The stamp launch went fantastically @ Blossies. The classes I've been teaching have been heaps of fun. All you ladies out there are so much fun to work with.

We spent two weeks down in Adelaide and got to catch up with family and teach @ Charlotte's Web which was heaps of fun. They loved the stamps- especially the Fancy Flourishes (one of my favorites too!) The Dickie Birds were an enormous hit with lots of orders for them! Since we got back I've been busy filling all the orders. If any of the ladies would like me to email them the ink info sheet, just drop me a line on my email (papercraftstudio@hotmail.com) and I'll get one to you.

This weekend I'm teaching @ Blossies again- a lovely card class that will suit any occasion and a REALLY FUN canvas class where I'll teach you some techniques to use your stamps on the canvas photo optional. This is a really fun messy class where we all get to play at being artists! there's still room avilable in both (follow the link on the right for Blossies).
