Love love love! Love the layers...love the colors...love the textures! Supremely yummy.

Every time you tear off the bottom of your tag for the date stamp I wonder if you save it. And if so, if you've ever used the torn ends on a journal page. :)

Love the colors!! I thought of an idea for your hexagonal pieces of canvas. When you said maybe you'll sew them together, an idea formed in my head! Paint each hexagon differently and then sew them together into a bag of some sort. Pencil bag, little wallet, a clutch. Anything would be cute, really. That way you could take you art with you to show off!

So excited to have happened upon you and your work via Stampington's blog! I just ordered oodles of paints and stains, about to embark upon my own art journaling experience. I have dabbled about working with color, pens, stencils and such, but have decided to go full monty...looking forward to exploring your online art studio...thank you!

I love Inspiration Wed., and it's so much fun to watch when I am stuck for ideas. I had to pause it and go run and grab some stencils, then run back again to add a drip. lol You're so fun to watch! waving hi from the hills of North Carolina :)

I've been wondering that too! Can we expect to see a journal page with a bottom layer of tag butts?!?!
