Hi Everyone,
I am so excited to announce that Nathalie from Magenta is coming to teach at the store in early March. Scroll down for all the details.
We have great new things in the store for you. Spring is arriving with Authentique's two new lines. At least, the paper makes us think of Spring.
New Scrap & Stamp Arts Magazine
I love this new product. I had to try it for myself and had a great time making my own featherweight embellishments from this scent free air dry clay. We are ordering more of this so I can do a demo soon. I painted thesewith Liquid Pearls.
While we are waiting for our custom Ravens paper (we should get it later next week), we have some new Orioles and Terps paper.
New Dylusions and stencils.
Impression Obsession Stamps and dies.
Easter papers. We gathered all the mini albums and SMASH like stuff together including our washi tape.
New Little Yellow Bicycle Just Because.
Nathalie from Magenta is Coming Back to Photo Scraps!
We are so excited to have one of the creators of Magenta stamp company come visit us again. Nathalie was here last year and many of you were able to take her technique filled class and shop their great truck show. I have no idea how they got their whole warehouse in their car.
Nathalie M�tivier started in her childhood to draw and exhibit her work. With her sister H�l�ne and Daniel, her brother-in-law, she helped, 20 years ago, to create Magenta Rubber Stamps. One of her many tasks is to be part of the creative team. She drew many of the images as well as she invented the "direct-to-paper" and the "Ghost" coloring techniques. In addition, she is a certified Ranger instructor. She appeared several times on Carol Duvall Show as well as on Magenta's own videos. She is co-author with Leslie Conron Carola of the books Magenta Style Paper Magic and Magenta Style Paper Enchantments. Most of all, she likes to share ideas and techniques with others.
Sign up for both classes and Save $5

You will learn how to watercolor with markers and pearlescent watercolor on an embossed image.
