And if you have not heard about it yet, we just added a Paper Goods Subscription service -- starting at just $17 (subscription price includes shipping anywhere in the world!), 4 paper goods products (a $28 value) of your choice will be delivered to you every 6 weeks. There are a couple of super perks as well.

We have card fronts, colorables, and ephemera -- all created for artsy crafters to play with and create fab projects. They're some of the most gorgeous designs professionally printed on 120# (325 gsm) matte white cardstock.

Our paper goods are a recent addition to the store. In fact, paper goods subscribers get to choose from 35 paper goods...and there will be more as our catalog continues to grow.

And we also continue to share projects by the STAMPgirls featuring our paper goods -- they're here to give you ideas on how you can use the products creatively in your own projects.

You'll find previous paper goods posts here. Today, we're putting the spotlight on several paper goods products: Abstract Blooms ATC, Spring Florals A2 Card Fronts, Powerful Women ATC, Watercolor ATC Journaling Cards, Carpe Diem Ephemera Tiles, Newsprint Coffee Ephemera Tiles, and What's Up Ephemera Tiles.

{New Paper Goods!} Bloom Cutups ATC

    

Happy Friday, STAMPfriends! We're back with a new post on the paper goods that were recently added to the store. There are card fronts, colorables, and ephemera -- all created for artsy crafters to play with and create fab projects. They're some of the most gorgeous designs professionally printed on 120# (325 gsm) matte white cardstock.

The STAMPgirls have been playing with these for a while now and they all love the quality of both design and paper. I've also gotten a lot of great feedback from customers who love the thickness of the cardstock.

Our paper goods are a recent addition to the store and our catalog continues to grow. This month, I added 14 new products to our paper goods section: three (3) A2 card fronts, six (6) ephemera tiles, and five (5) ATC/journaling cards.

We continue to share projects by the STAMPgirls that feature our paper goods -- they're here to give you ideas on how you can use the products creatively in your own projects.

We have shared projects by Tanja, Jane, Nancy, Shirley, MariLynn, Maria, Craftyfield, Vicki, Sue N., and Sue S. -- you'll find them all here. Today, we're highlighting the Bloom Cutups ATC. This is one my favorites in the bunch, as I love how combining the mixed media collage background, newsprint, and cut-out look of the flowers turned out.

Take a look at what Sanna and Vicki created with these!

{Mixed Media Tutorial} Gentle Human Art Journal Spread by Sanna

Hello everyone, it's Sanna here again with another mixed media tutorial. This time I created an art journal spread using a long quote.

Recently I gave the magazine transfer technique a go with my Gelli Plate and in the process of learning, how to get reasonably good results, I made quite a few pages and one of those pages was my starting point for this particular spread, as I really liked the color combination on the paper, even though the transfer image did not look that great.

Here is the finished page:

You are probably thinking, where the gelli plate paper is? Well, it is there, hidden under all the layers. You can only see very little of it on the human shaped areas.
