issue!
Facing
the clutter and odds and ends of everyday life challenges each of us.
Mastering it is just a step away! With these accordion envelope booklets
you can stuff, stow and store everything from vacation photos, to business
cards, to postage stamps, coupons or to-do lists.
A
gentle breeze, a whisper of wind, a child's warm breath, or the spring
season stirring from its winter slumber can bring these playful pinwheels
to life. Created from easy-to-follow templates, our pinwheels are stamped
to suit a range of purposes. Elegant to whimsical, colorful to muted,
a pinwheel can enhance almost any occasion depending on the stamp images
chosen.
It's
always fun to explore the varied options a stamp can have. Though we
do that in each issue in the "Possibilities" feature, this
request narrowed the playing field a bit for our AOC's. The assignment:
Create four cards using the same main stamp image, layering techniques,
shape and size, but achieving unique looks for each card by varying
the papers, color and inks.
Journaling,
or keeping a diary, has always been a way of organizing thoughts, plans,
goals and recording personal history for posterity. An art journal includes
more than the words of your emotions. It is the visual and artistic
expression of all that is going on in your life and soul.
