Pat-a-plate, pat-a-plate, baker’s man. Make me a print as fast as you can; Pat it and shape it and mark it with “G”, Making at Artiscape -fun for you and me!

I’m starting to get packed up for the workshops I’m teaching at Artiscape this month.  You might be wondering why I am starting so soon to pack.  Artiscape is April 22-24th and it is just a car ride away for me. The reason is simple.  Whenever I pack up Gelli® printing supplies, I have to [...]

A morning full of Gelli printing® and StencilGirl stencils….these ladies were so much [...]

I’m so excited about Super Bowl Sunday!  Not because of the football but because of the art play with new and familiar faces!  The people I got to know teaching there in 2015 makes it an even bigger joy to come back and play…I mean teach 2 new workshops at Simply Said Stamps on Feb. 7th! Sneaky Art [...]
