KISS = Keep It Simple Sandy

Stamp for fun....that's my motto!  I enjoy making cards.  I justify buying stamps because they can also be used for various projects, such as images for for stories for Children's Church.  The kids stamp name tags, and we make signs and posters.  Some of my stamps get scanned and put in e-mail messages.  I am blessed with a friend who is a genuine, dedicated stamper that shares many ideas and keeps me motivated.  Some people go to the show or the beach but we go to Claire's.  You can always have a great time there -- Just ask Claire!

Web note:  These cards were fun to work with.  Sandy

provided 17 of them to choose from!   I picked the ones

that had the most contrast so you could see

the different techniques and materials she uses.

.  Sandy coordinates the central

image on the front of the card with the images on

the envelope, with the sentiment inside, and with

her signature stamp on the back. 

If you've got some stamping artwork you would like displayed, please e-mail Claire and let her know!  You may be the next featured artist!
