Retro Stamp Set

Chronicle Books, http://www.chroniclebooks.com/, has
published several stamp sets, but one of them is the coolest.
It is a set based on the designs of Charles and Ray Eames. http://www.eamesgallery.com/ Renowned for their classic
modern furniture, architecture, films, toys, and photography,
Charles and Ray Eames are considered among the most
visionary twentieth-century designers.

Well, judge for yourself :

Wrap-card

In the olden days, envelopes were not much more
than a piece of paper wrapped around a letter, not
at all covering said letter up. That was what gave me
the idea for this type of wrap-card.

Nostalgic Collage

Here are two collaged booklets, nostalgic style.
They are about the size of an ATC and each
page is a tiny bit bigger than the one on top of
it, so you get a nice layered look.



The first one i made with stamps by Rivercity Rubberworks.



The second on with stamps by Stampers Anonymous.

ATC's : Dream Big and For-Your-Eyes-Only with T!m stamps

I like to experiment with colours when it comes
to ATC's. I like to see how they look very much
the same yet so different. These ATC's i made
earlier, using some really nice stamps from amongst
others Tim Holtz. I hope to do more stamping with
these stamps, because i really like them.

ATC's : Paris

Some more Old-School ATC's, this time with
my favorite theme, Paris. Used the Casablanca
sheet from Oxford Impressions for these, and
a stamp from Inkadinkado.
