Sponsor Giveaway: Get Naked (and Adorned) with Stacy D
I'm having loads of fun with these giveaways while I'm writing and painting away on my BOOK :) Interviewing creatives and mamas is keeping me grounded during that process, and it's really fun for me to bring others into my space regularly again. Thank you to all of you who show up t...
I was wondering: Julie, do you use the Archival ink to stamp on your photos or just for your cards ? I tried to stamp with it on my pics and it smudged (but this is my fav. ink for everything else).
I will try Stazon for the pictures and will see :)
thanks for sharing.

Hitting the «open» button is one of the hardest moment actually. You'll see that once that step is done, it will get easier (not everyday though). AND you are spreading the word before it actually happens so we are ready for tomorrow.
Congrats for the trip to Portland in June (it's on top of our list for 2013 as well).
2013-A Few Plans
In my previous post, I mentioned that my word for 2013 was "action." This means acting on goals and dreams. This means putting plans in motion. Well, just four days into the New Year and I'm feeling very proud of myself. Two of the biggest items on my 2013 To-Do List are just about done. The f...
Good rule to follow. Some people think too much about that point *I used to be one of them*
#5 Any media/ medium is okay
What speaks to you? Crfayons? If so use them. Do you only like to write in blue, purple or green? That's okay too. Do you like: Sharpies? Caran d'ache? Charcoal? Acrylic? Watercolors? Colored Pencils? Collage? Gouache? Ink? Rubber stamps? Pastel? Watercolor Pencils? If so use them. Do you hat...
I am in the middle of what you call the «Soul Crisis», it's been a few weeks now.
My head is spinning with creative stuff I want to try and experiment and create. But once I'm there, nothing happens for X or Y reason.
It is SO true that if we are not aligned with our needs, our health usually go downfall...
Take care with your back.

Stencils That Are Meant To Layer
I had originally titled this post: "Layering Stencils." But since all stencils can be layered it seemed a bit too general. Today I want to talk about a series of four stencils I designed that are meant to layer. Watch the video to see how these stencils layer together to...
