I’m thrilled to reveal my newest stamp collections with PaperArtsy! I have three brand new hand-drawn, stamp sets that were inspired by and designed to work with the concepts from my Angels & Icons and Queen of Hearts workshops.
The new stamps are now available for purchase from your favorite independent PaperArtsy-carrying stores and will also be available in my shop. You can read more about the stamps in this release and see all the samples in the official stamp release blog post.
Be sure to check out the archived video of the intro and reveal for this release in the PaperArtsy People Facebook group. I shared the origins of this concept with samples of artwork, the original drawings for these faces, my thinking on how each of the elements could be used, project samples with these stamps, and more.)
The new stamps are available for order in the shop. (Also, please make sure to check with your favorite independent PaperArtsy stockists to purchase or request the new stamps... Shop Small!)

I'm thrilled to be returning in April 2023 to teach at the 20th Anniversary of the Art & Soul retreats in Portland, Orgeon.
I'm teaching 4 workshops, including two brand new classes. You can join me for "Stitches + Glue: Mixed Media with Paper and Fabric," "Wishes & Dreams Spirit Dolls," "Watercolor for Mixed Media," or my all time most popular class, "Angels & Icons." My classes run from April 16 - 19 and registration is now open. I hope to see some of you there! (Noting that Angels & Icons is almost full, so if you're interested, sign up now!) |
I'm very excited to announce that I'm part of a new mixed media retreat on the East coast, right here in Northern Virginia! It's the first Creative Minds Summit from Artistic Artifacts. I'll be joining owner and creative genius, Judy Gula, as well as friends and incredible instructors, Liz Kettle of Textile Evolution and Libby Williamson.
If you love mixed media along with textiles and maybe even some thread and stitching, you're going to love the the Creative Minds Summit. We’re still in the planning stages, but registration will be open before you know it so make sure to save the date now — this will be a creative opportunity worth traveling for! Registration is now open... scroll down and look for the "summit" flag on the classes to see and sign up! |

At long last, I'm able to share that I'm joining in with several of my fellow PaperArtsy designers to partner with WOW! on two sets of embossing powder Trios that I was able to design to coordinate beautifully with my stamp and stencil designs.
The Silk Road Trio features three beautiful colors inspired by... wait for it... the Silk Road! This Trio includes some semi-transparent colors and they're also beautiful for Fall. The Ancient Orient Trio was inspired primarily by my trips to Turkey and the Middle East and includes a beautiful metallic.
