So nice to see you again...the warm sun and bright skies must have brought out the creative spirit in us all...we had a packed house this past Saturday for Michele's ATC demo and trade...
For this month Michele featured some lovely floral papers and embellishments from Kaiser Craft, perfectly suited for ATC making...
And these fun and whimsical stamps from Rubber Moon...so hard to resist these sweet stamps...
You need to come into the store and see how beautifully colored these are...Michele is pure genius with her Copic markers...
Lots of ideas to be shared...
Trading begins with lots of enthusiasm..
Sweet snacks are plentiful for a bit of refueling...and a special thanks to our lovely friend Maria for bringing homemade sopopillas and Mexican hot chocolate for all...delicious..
A couple of months ago an extra trade was offered to all who wanted to participate, one with a specific theme...our first ever themed swap...the Alphabet Trade...we all signed up for a specific letter and agreed to make 27 ATC's featuring that letter... they were turned in last month, compiled into a book and viola! Everyone was excited to get their Alphabet Book....come into the store to see what a fabulous job our creative participants did...
I hope we do more of these special swaps...a huge thanks to Michele, Mark and Jody for pulling it all together...
Love your gorgeous smile Michele!
Thanks for stopping by!
Sheila
It is a treat to see the new Rubbermoon stamps, designed by new owner Kristen Powers, become magical ATCs with Michele's fine touch. Combining the images with Copic coloring and the Kaisercraft florals positively sings of spring - something on all our California minds after the uncharacteristically chilly weather. And your ATC gatherings always look so lively. Stamp Your Heart Out has built quite a community with this monthly program. xo
