This week's In{k}spire Me #153 looks like a fun one - and for a change, I think I have to go with the "obvious." I have a new stamp set sobbing on my desk! It wants INK!
Flower Patch is a TON of fun to work with - so many nifty ways to layer the flowers and leaves - there's almost too much choice, lol. The icing on the cake is the set of framelits made to go with - makes it even easier to add another layer of drama with dimension! I decided today to make the layered flowers single layer - I haven't done too much "stamping over stamping," and I was curious about how it would look. I LOVE how they came out! The photopolymer stamps really make this technique a snap! I can see stacking the stamped layers, too, that would also be very cool... As you can see, I pulled out all the stops on the ink colors, too - my little party to celebrate the final conversion of all my ink pads to firm foam - woo hoo!

Summer School is OPEN!
For the months of June and July, we're still having summer school - your chance to take any past class you want! Browse my past offerings, or describe to me something you remember us doing and then just email me which one you'd like to make up or repeat, and if you prefer day, evening or weekend. We'll schedule just for you, and work around your summer plans! No need to worry about being away for our regular class nights!
Once classes are scheduled, I'll post them here, so if anyone else wants to jump in on your choice, they can!
