Wednesday Stamper

"Words" is the theme for Wednesday Stamper's challenge today. I created this piece using stamps from Paper Artsy and Hampton Arts. Papers are by 7 Gypsies and Basic Grey.

The lace border at the top was created with an embosser/border punch from Martha Stewart. I bought this as an alternative to the paper lace which I like so much but have, sadly, run out of. This punch will allow me to create lace borders with any kind or color paper. You can't see the embossing on this picture, but it has a raised pattern to it as well.

An artful mix of images, colors and textures. I am going to look for the profile stamp you used...I like how some faces look at us directly while she gazes out onto a different horizon.

OH - - LOVE THIS ONE! And I like the green background on the blog, too. You've almost got me happy to see Christmas stuff posted on the blogs I visit. Not sure anything can get me ready for these freezing (14 degrees when I got up this morning) temperatures, though.

Just when I thought I might be able to resist more new things from Martha Stewart's line, lovely border you made with the punch. Love your design and stamp choices!
