Simply Stampendous!

This past weekend, Michele and I enjoyed sharing some of our favorite new Stampendous stamps with you...all with a vintage feel to them...
Michele used these lovely ladies on her ATC cards, paired with some classic inspired papers from Kaiser Kraft and stencils from Crafter's Workshop...


We think that sweet kitty with glasses is pretty darn cute too!


The antique typewriter and time flies icons were also demo-ed and made into wonderful mini art pieces as only Michele can do!


The lovely little cameo makes the perfect ATC card...and it is so pretty embossed in silver...


More vintage card and tag ideas at Sunday's demo...




We all had fun learning about the new aged embossing powders, colored mica flaked, chunky glitters and color fragments...these add lots of sparkle, shine and depth to your projects!


Come on in and take a closer look, we'd love to see you!
