Well, the new images are on the website and ready for sale so if you think you have time to make a few Texas-themed holiday cards, here's your chance. You can find them HERE.
And here's another sample of the very popular Texmas Tree. This time I colored the stamp with Marvy Markers and stamped it on glossy paper. I'm not even going to bother listing the colors because let's face it, you're not crazy enough to spend this much time on one image, right? I mean, forget the fact that my reading glasses gave me a headache or that this was actually the fourth attempt. The first three had various issues - on one, I missed one of the paisley designs completely. So irritating!
Also keep in mind that Marvy Marker on glossy paper fades over time. Sure it will look good through the season but if you spend this much time you're going to want it to last. And anyway it's probably true that you don't know anyone who deserves this much time. I'll admit I'm being presumptuous here because I haven't met your friends and family but deep down you know I'm right, right?
OK, maybe if someone gave you a kidney or dragged you out of burning building but that's about it.
I'm really not trying to talk you out of buying it especially since I've had a hard time keeping it in stock since I sent the flyers to the Texas stores but THIS is a much more reasonable use for it. And now I'm fully stocked in both rubber and wood so we're ready to go!
Also included on the new web page are the new stamps we used in Florida last week. I'll be posting some samples soon. In the meantime, here's a preview of one of the stamps. More soon!
Wow--that tree stamp looks fabulous with all the colors! There's no settling for stamping it with just one color after seeing this :) How did you color it fast enough for the markers not to dry up on the stamp? It doesn't look watercolory at all but did you lightly spritz it with water maybe?
