I appreciate it a LOT!<br /><br />Ann sent this shot showing a portion of the Stampers Anonymous booth. Tim now has 50 sets of stamps. How cool is that! I'm wayyyyyyyyy behind with only 7 sets! But...the next series is on the drawing board! YIPPEE!<br /><br /><a href="http://bp2.blogger.com/_t8PROtpDxFs/SInSJibVJdI/AAAAAAAADw4/yqTtLeSHUns/s1600-h/Stampers+Anonymous+booth+CHA+-S+08_001.JPG"><img id="BLOGGER_PHOTO_ID_5226939903842264530" style="CURSOR: hand" alt="" src="http://bp2.blogger.com/_t8PROtpDxFs/SInSJibVJdI/AAAAAAAADw4/yqTtLeSHUns/s200/Stampers+Anonymous+booth+CHA+-S+08_001.JPG" border="0" /></a><br /><br />Here's a demoing photo from Sharon. That's Patti Behan (second from the left). She works for Ranger. On the far right is Cecile, my friend.<br /><br /><br /><a href="http://bp2.blogger.com/_t8PROtpDxFs/SInSJmuhRwI/AAAAAAAADxA/46jVeMQeQYs/s1600-h/Ranger+CHA-S+08+demo_001.JPG"><img id="BLOGGER_PHOTO_ID_5226939904996493058" style="CURSOR: hand" alt="" src="http://bp2.blogger.com/_t8PROtpDxFs/SInSJmuhRwI/AAAAAAAADxA/46jVeMQeQYs/s200/Ranger+CHA-S+08+demo_001.JPG" border="0" /></a><br /><br />Another demo shot...Linda ( Scrapbook Friend'z) is straight ahead in the blue.<br /><br />YIKES!! When did I get soooooooo old?? Wouldn't you think SOMEONE would "photoshop" out the wrinkles?? Nice friends, I have...<strong>NOT</strong>!<br /><br /><a href="http://bp2.blogger.com/_t8PROtpDxFs/SInSJ6zA-FI/AAAAAAAADxI/uoJzZsXyBbM/s1600-h/Ranger+CHA+08+demo+2_001.JPG"><img id="BLOGGER_PHOTO_ID_5226939910384056402" style="CURSOR: hand" alt="" src="http://bp2.blogger.com/_t8PROtpDxFs/SInSJ6zA-FI/AAAAAAAADxI/uoJzZsXyBbM/s200/Ranger+CHA+08+demo+2_001.JPG" border="0" /></a><br /><br />Now on to the art...<br /><br />This was fun. I was wondering how I could combine Ranger's new Snow Cap white <a href="http://www.rangerink.com/pigment_ink.htm">pigment ink </a>with other products.<br /><br /><a href="http://bp3.blogger.com/_t8PROtpDxFs/SInRuAWwJ-I/AAAAAAAADwo/2lZS8582KCw/s1600-h/Journey+tag+pigment+&+distress_001.JPG"><img id="BLOGGER_PHOTO_ID_5226939430839789538" style="CURSOR: hand" alt="" src="http://bp3.blogger.com/_t8PROtpDxFs/SInRuAWwJ-I/AAAAAAAADwo/2lZS8582KCw/s200/Journey+tag+pigment+%26+distress_001.JPG" border="0" /></a><br />The stamping was done with Snow Cap white & then I used Ranger's distress inks over it. I like the look of the pastels.<br /><br />The flower is worn lipstick, the petals are peeled paint & the background is faded jeans.<br /><br />And the stamps you ask???<strong><span style="color:#339999;"> <a href="http://www.stampersanonymous.com/cat-index.html">studio 490</a></span></strong>, of course! "Journey" is tim's, the background, flowers & leaves are <strong><span style="color:#339999;">studio 490</span></strong>.<br /><br />And I almost forgot this. I got several emails telling me that the links on the left @ the <a href="http://www.stampersanonymous.com/cat-index.html">Stampers Anonymous site </a>all lead back to page 12. I forwarded this info to Jackie. Give her a bit to get this fixed.<br /><br />Until then, just use the arrows on the bottom of each page. they are working just fine.<br /><br />And for the questions about the acrylic covers for <strong><span style="color:#339999;">studio490</span></strong> stamp storage...I've asked Ted & Michelle to let me know the prices & when they will be available on the site. I'll update here when I hear back from them.<br /><br />Here's one of the demo tags I made using <a href="http://www.rangerink.com/perfect_pearls.htm">Perfect Pearls </a>and Ranger's new Picket Fence (white) crackle paint.<br /><br />The flowers is by <a href="http://www.mayaroad.net/">Maya Road</a>.<br /><br />The flower center is tim's Idea-ology philosophy tag & the stem is a <strong><span style="color:#339999;">studio490</span></strong> stamp.<br /><br /><a href="http://bp3.blogger.com/_t8PROtpDxFs/SInRuPQ07EI/AAAAAAAADww/7Q5RaqMideg/s1600-h/adventure+tag+PP+&+crackle+paint_001.JPG"><img id="BLOGGER_PHOTO_ID_5226939434841467970" style="CURSOR: hand" alt="" src="http://bp3.blogger.com/_t8PROtpDxFs/SInRuPQ07EI/AAAAAAAADww/7Q5RaqMideg/s200/adventure+tag+PP+%26+crackle+paint_001.JPG" border="0" /></a><br />I rubbed frayed burlap distress ink over the flower to accentuate the cracks. It's hard to see, but I used the Perfect Medium pad on the petal edges & added some Perfect Pearls. Magically, the pearls only stick to the Perfect Medium, so you have total control of the shimmer. FUN stuff!<br /><br />Perfect Pearls were mixed in a mini mister with some faded jeans reinker & water to make the background. I'll show you how in a blog posting soon.<br /><br />That's it for today!<br />Have a GREAT ARTY weekend!<br />wendywendy vecchihttp://www.blogger.com/profile/15256591861794137914noreply@blogger.com
