New stamps, two new journal pages

























Shortly after I took Dina Wakley's online journaling classes, she came out with her new stamp line via Stampington Co. She offers a very nice array of stamps and when I saw these two silhouette stamps, well; I just had to order them right? :)

Here are two new journal pages that I created using these stamps. The backgrounds for each page are papers I made out of deli paper.

Hope you and yours are doing well and I'm sending cooling thoughts to those still being effected by the heat. We are a little cooler, here, now, but the weekend will heat up again.

Is it September yet? :)

Much love to all! Marilyn xxoo

Stunning colour scheme - would never have thought of using those. I watched DW's videos last week and thoroughly enjoyed them. Looking forward to those stamps becoming available over here. Lovely work.

Marilyn
When I saw those stamps advertised by Stampington you came to mind. Knew they were right up your street.
You used them brilliantly.
What an artist you are.

The silhouettes are really crazy cool I think Marilyn! They create such an atmosphere of mystery, and combined with your colors they tell a magical story! I love it!

Oh this is so cool, how artists can bring out lines of their own dolls and stamps etc. Be so cool if we could do this in the uk.
Your art is amazing!
Hugs!
