A Little Project I've Been Working On...

I've been drawn back into rubber stamping by a bit of political activism. I've been writing Postcards to Voters in an effort to get out the vote. I've been switching up the theme every so often so as not to get bored....

It's fun to get creative with some of my quirky stamps, trying to figure out how to use them to get the message out!  If you are in the US and are interested and so inclined, here are some details if you'd like to join in .... get started by going to the website PostcardsToVoters.org:

A Valentine

A little Valentine I made for my daughter, who's away at college in Boston.  Photo taken with my phone, because I was switched from a PC to a Mac when my computer died, and I still have no photo editing software. Hoping to get back to posting after more than a year away!

DEVASTATED

Darkroom Door ATC Swap - Tied Up With String

The Darkroom Door ATC swap for February was themed "Tied Up With String" and we were to use string somehow in our ATCs.  I wanted to do a Valentine theme, so a cut some hearts from very thin chipboard and colored them with Neocolors.  I stamped the sentiment on the margins of some vintage sheet music, tore it out, and attached it to my hearts.  On the background I used a stamp from Art De Fleur Vol 2 (in brown) and the Flourish texture stamp (in blue).  I punched holes in the heart and the background and threaded some twine through in cross stitches.

Here they are all packaged up and ready for their journey...
