Gotham City Stampers

I am so thrilled to be a member of an artsy group, the Kindred Souls. We do swaps and participate in artsy chatter! LOTS of fun. This was  my very first swap with this group. We made a tag that was our “style” which led me to fun colors and vintage-inspired elements. Hope you enjoy [...]

I hope you and your family is having a fabulous holiday season! I was fortunate to be invited to teach a holiday class to a group of fairly new artists in Lower Manhattan. We made basic tags and cards. This tag is one that I made with the group. I was inspired by a similar [...]

I am honored to be on the design team for the ALTERED PROJECT BLOG! Please take a moment to check out the tutorial that I submitted! FAUX MOSAIC TUTORIAL Tweet

Can you guess what I used to make this tag? There are two “sneaky” items on here that you may not be able to guess on your first try!  The tag itself is the packaging from Prima Flowers-I have a ton of that packing and save it all! I have been looking for new, cool [...]

Do you LOVE that stamp? (My friend Laurel used it at my class and is now on a hunt for it.) I found it at Michael’s and use it as often as I can.  I have also become addicted to making tags. People have asked what to do with tags once you make them-I have [...]

I guess calling this tag Shabby Chic is a bit of a stretch. I wasn’t quite sure WHAT category it would fall into, really. It has tons of acrylic paint on it, some die cut butterflies and a chandelier that I did with an embossing folder. It’s a little funky but bright and fun! Tweet

This is a tag that I made quite some time ago and never shared with you! It is a fun New York City tag made with a cool vintage-looking skyline stamp from Rubber Necker Stamps. I stamped it using VersaMark Ink and then some sparkly black embossing powder from Sparkle & Sprinkle. The NYC  letters [...]

Yes, Halloween. I am so behind on my projects! This is a tag that I made and just had to share it with you. With all of the snow outside here in New York City, I am spending the day in my Art Studio (THE MECCA) doing tons of projects. I am promised myself that [...]

I had so much fun making this tag! I used the Tim Holtz Tattered Florals die to cut out the flowers. I used some burlap (and had it ALL over the place–dogs don’t like burlap on their fur)! The paper is from Close To My Heart. I got that from my wonderful friend, Michele. The [...]
