Where the Wild Things Are – Friday

June 9, 2017June 8, 2017 Janelle StollfusLeave a comment

We’ve been celebrating some Wild Things this week. We’ve got a couple more team members who are sharing today with their wild creations. Be sure to join us next week when we are “going to the dogs” (and cats)!

We have a couple more of Fran’s samples she made with the Laurel Burch stamps. These great cards show you that wild things don’t have to have wild colors! In fact, black and white can be deliciously wild. Especially when combined with some great embossing powders! Take a look! (you can find all the great wild animals from this week’s posts on our website HERE)

If you’re loving our new Laurel Burch wild animal stamps, you might be wondering how Fran made those wonderful backgrounds on the samples that appear on our website and in our catalog.

She’s made a video to share this technique with you, and we think you’ll love it! Take a look, then enjoy the samples our design team members have created to celebrate the wild things in our lives! Just click on the image below.

Let the fun start! We are exploring where the wild things are all week, and we are beginning with the super Laurel Burch stamps from our April release! We also have some winners to announce from last week’s commenters!

These jungle creatures share the spirit of adventure in the design of Laurel Burch and we are thrilled to be bringing them in time for a summer of creating greeting cards, home decor and more! We can’t wait to see what you make with them!

These stamps are available in our deeply etched and precision cut premium gray rubber on a 1/8″ gray rubber foam backing and either mounted on a premium American hardwood handle with decal image on top OR on a cling vinyl decal with full sized image for easier storage and use with an acrylic handle (sold separately). Here’s a great gallery of ideas to get your creative mojo moving on this Monday morning!

Creative Painting 2017 Is A Hit!

March 3, 2017March 3, 2017 Janelle Stollfus2 Comments

Stampendous is excited to be teaching classes and sharing our newest products in the expo at Creative Painting in Las Vegas.

The Tropicana Hotel is the home for this fantastic event celebrating Decorative Painting, and we’ve attended each year for the last several years to show decorative painters how easy it is to use stamps. Rubber stamps make wonderful and easy background patterns for painted, home décor projects. In addition, they are an easy way to transfer a pattern to a piece for painting. Some of our large images like this Bird Blossom stamp are perfect for stamping, painting, and outlining to save loads of time on a gorgeous project.

This project was designed by Debbie Cole and taught by Tammie Wilson at this year’s Creative Paint event.

The other class taught by Sue Thornton was a fantastic Steampunk Jingle Bell plaque that used Train Postcard stamp.

It was a great turn out for both classes and all attendees worked hard to complete their projects. We can’t wait until next year!

More Lovely Lilacs

A new lilac image arrived in our House-Mouse stamps to add to the lovely lilacs theme of products. We adore this Lilac Aroma stamp as much as Monica does smelling the fragrance of these syringa flowers.

hmp59_lilac_aroma_rendered_800 — HMP59 House-Mouse® Lilac Aroma Stamp

And we know the lilac is Monica’s favorite flower because she was caught smelling the Scent of Lilac on another stamp and smelling flowers is any House-Mouse personal amusement in the garden. Stop by the House-Mouse stamp section of our website to see more!

Before we move on to inspiration from our design team today, here are more flowers we want you to see from the latest catalog. Cyclamen and Geraniums are beautiful and a joy to make into cards or adding to your garden journal.
