Hello stamping friends!
I hope you all had a wonderful weekend! I know I did! I wanted to blog about a wonderful workshop I did last night for my dear friend Amy DeBiase at her beautiful shop, Bliss Gifts and Home Decor on Jay Street in Schenectady. Her back room was nice and cozy, with 14 stampers (12 adults, 2 children)! I have to admit I had a wave of nerves and profuse sweating that came over me as we began, I think I realized how long it had been since I was in a room of newbies… And I should have planned some simpler techniques, although everyone did great, despite my blunder.
Here’s what the room looked like before stampers:
Doesn’t this look amazing?!?! Amy has such amazing pieces of art, I kept looking around her shop while we stamped, of course I want 1 of everything! Lol. Wait until you see what she is refurbishing for me, I can’t wait to show you all another one of her amazing pieces!
Here are the three cards we made:
Amy loves the vintage look, and all these cards were designed just for her! There were a few steps I forgot to talk about (stamp first, then punch)… But I think everyone had a great time! There were so many stampers that I didn’t have a minute to take any action shots!
Some of the ladies turned their cards into Mother’s Day cards, I’m sure their moms will love their handmade creations!
