This next ATC is by a friend of Rina's, CHIEKO! She used a popcorn pen on the mod girl's coat to make it thick and textured. Neat eh?!

This card is also by Lisa F. She used our coy fairy rubber stamp.

These next crafts are by Rebecca J! She said "This week I used the Pinstripped Black Widow from Sideshow Stamps...I love how creepy this spider is! I thought it would be fun to pair with with some cutesy twine....and a glittery web effect. For this project, I used metallic silver embossing powder (American Crafts) cut my stamped image and adhered it with a foam tab (American Crafts). To create the glittery web I sprayed my black card stock with stick and spray (CC International) and then sprinkled it with bridal embossing tinsel (Ranger). I also inked the edges of the purple card stock with basic black ink (Stampin' Up). To finish it off I tied a bow using orange and white bakers twine. The wooden blocks are recycled Stampin' Up wood mounts for stamps that I converted to clear mounts. "



"I also used the Pinstripped black widow to create this quick and easy Halloween card using card stock scraps, white pigment ink (Pamass) and my printer..."

Awesome Surly-Ramics pendants by AMY!

So, I received a box of goodies from a fellow etsy artist named Amy at Surly-Ramics
She makes amazing ceramic pendants, necklaces and bracelets that she hand carves, or stamps, paints, fires etc. It's art you can wear! And makes a perfect gift!

The box was packed like Christmas with two deliciously pretty colors of tissue paper and a quote from Charles Horton Cooley - "An artist cannot fail; it is a success to be one."

Amy packed two necklaces for me in cute little black jewelry boxes with silver stretchy cord around the outside. And inside I found her business card and the necklaces extremely well packed with bubble wrap and cotton backing. THANKS AMY!!

These were made with our mod flowers and retro frog rubber stamps.

Sorry for the horrible pictures, that was all I could get before my camera died...

Here is some more of her art necklaces from her etsy store - this one is made with our 70's owl rubber stamp.

And this one is made with our retro rocket.

Go visit her store, etsy shop, facebook page and buy some stuff. You won't regret it! Her pendants are BEAUTIFUL!
