2 on Tuesday...giveaways that is!

before we get to the stamps...

I got the same questions several times yesterday...
so I thought I'd post the info here...

the first question asked if there will be replacement tips for tim's new distress markers...

the answer is no...

they are loaded with ink...
so they will last a LONG time...

and the second was...

what happens if you accidentally leave the cap off?

Ranger makes a product called
so if the ink is there, but it's dryed out...
it will rehydrate the marker...
so no problem if you have an oopsie......

and the 3rd...
can you use the distress reinkers to refill
the answer is NO...
the markers & the reinkers are different formulations...

I hope you find this info helpful...

don't bother asking for my favorite colors! LOL!!!

seriously...


ok...happy 2 on Tuesday!!!

here's the first stamp giveaway for today ...
compliments of Ted!

it's called supplies for art...



and the second is ...



here's what the flowers look like when stamped...

then overstamped with this background...


I had a blast making this next one...

the background is made with 5 art parts rulers...
just stain & stamp...

and all the art parts are sitting on
the new Black Metal Shelf from Blossom Bucket...

and my favorite saying is a perfect fit

and everything is sized to work with
pencil from a past release...





congrats to the winner of yesterdays set...

Congrats to the lucky winner, thanks for offering these great prize opps.

SCTechSorceress said...

oooh! I want them, I really do! I have seen all of your pre-cha peaks, and of course, I want everything! I will admit to a special fondness for flower stamps, though. There is so much that I can do with a floral image!

Love the creations. I see how the shelf can be useful for the art parts.

Cait said...

I absolutely love your art parts. They bring instant creativity to the surface and offer endless possibilities! Thanks for creating them.

Thanks for the information about the markers. I want them all-but afraid it will have to be a few at a time.
I found your site thru another one, where have I been??? Your work is so fun, and with more of a female touch. I am signing up for sure!
Would love to have these new stamps. Must admit that I am really drawn to the flowers.

Elaine A said...

Wendy -

If I won the lotto I'd buy everything you ever designed and probably be soliciting you to come give a class for all my friends - LOL! One can dream - sigh. I love the Supplies for Art set. In my opinion there is nothing like them in the market. And I really love your sentiments on Art Works, so lovely. You have done such an awesome job designing the Art Parts to match up with the stamps!

Elaine Allen

Melody (lacyquilter) said...

mamakat said...

Super happy to see some new big background stamps along with so many great objects. I'm thinking that more stamps of items will help resolve some of my storage issues because I am quite the hoarder of craft stuff. Do you think you can help a gal out?
Kathryn
PS do all of the Ranger artists get together at some point and co-ordinate sizes for your releases or is it just somewhat of a happy accident that so many of your items work well with Tim and the other designers?

Mo said...

My favorite 'art supply' will always be the rubber stamp. Can't get any better than your stamps.
I have a question: I've heard Tim's crinkle ribbon mentioned in several places. Is that a new ribbon or the one we make ourselves with the seam binding?
Thanks for the give-aways.

I really like the fact that you can use the stamps with the art parts...or all by themselves. However, I have become an art part hoarder. I'm sure I'm the only one too.

SUPPLIES FOR ART!!! MY MOST FAVORITE OF YOUR STAMPS!!!! Yippee!!! I would love to win them!!!! (oh - your art creation is WONDERFUL, too!!)

Shannon said...

Wendy your Art Parts are so awesome. Look how far your product line has come in just a few years. I always refer to you as the female version of Tim (I hope that's okay, it's certainly a compliment). I don't mean your style is similar to his, I just mean your amazing like he is and you just keep getting better and so do your products. Your taking over the scrapbooking, card making, mixed media world just as he is, that's what I mean. I'm so happy for you and I have so much fun using your stamps and art parts.

marci said...

Oh - love the ink stamps! Can't wait to have them in my stash.
