Welcome!

This is my place to share my creative bits and pieces. My art has no rules, no limits and absolutely no order. My projects change with my moods but for the last few years, my main focus has been paper art. Cards, collage, mixed media and as many techniques as I can get to. My inspiration comes from everywhere.

I hope you enjoy your visit.

STAMP SCRAPS

This quick little card would be perfect for a young boy but that's not the focus of sharing it with you. See the piece that Happy Birthday is stamped on with a kind of a green camoflage look to it? It was made by stamping with scrap rubber. After you push out the stamps, you're left with odd shaped rubber scraps. I took a couple and trimmed around a bit, then inked them up. Great for backgrounds!
Here's another sample with the same scraps.....
Fun huh?
So look at your rubber scraps. Keep in mind that you can die-cut shapes from the rubber too. I'll show that another day.
Have fun and enjoy your creativity- however you express it!
