New Stamp Designs..... Rose-Marie just finished over 20 new images. She went from the
Wind in the Pine (Stamp 1135) where you can hear the wind howl through the branches.... to some, get ready for Fall... with a walk along the Fence Row (Stamp J1138) Warm Thoughts for Christmas (Stamp D1148) or pile the Straw Bales (Stamp F1145) and the arrange the Pumpkins (Stamp F1144 then add Stamp A1142 to make the pumpkin face)
These new images will work well alone or stamp together to
create wonderful cards, then use them with other Rosewood Stamps as they are made to compliant each other.
You can view the new images now online under [New Images] Download the New pages for your Catalogue

Canada Day Card challenge.... A great example of "It's Still summertime and don't rush it!!"
Congratulations to
Karen of Orleans, ON. and her winning Card that she sent us. She parked her trailer right by the lake, in a very peaceful spot.
I am sure the fire is crackling and a few fish are in the pan as our campers wait for dark to descend. Then the Local Parks Committee can set off the Annual fireworks display. A perfect Canada Day Celebration ..... eh??

Rose-Marie just put some of her old teaching stamps in the Clearance Bin. These are stamps she used for demos and teaching Cardmaking classes. Many of the companies have discontinued the images or the company themselves have retired and the stamps are no longer available..... So you are in for a real
Good....
no
GREAT DEAL.
These are offered on a "First Pick - First Get" basis, so take a look in the Stamps
Clearance Bin (Click Here) and don't stop there.....
All cards are to be submitted by the 20th of the Contest month. Artwork submitted to be mailed or delivered by hand. It doesn't matter as long as it is in our hands by closing time, 5:30 PM
Lets take a look at what you can do with Fall Fairs, a stable event for most rural and urban communities. It doesn't matter if it is a "Fun on the Rides" or a "Fall Preserves 1'st Prize" Card.... it must express the essence of the Card Contest theme
Frog's Whiskers stamps travel the World and the problems in one country, are the same as another.....
Amanda from Australia emailed the other day.... She had purchased the
Barnyard Rooster stamp K17002.... now what?
"I love your stamps." she writes but, " I'm a bit disappointed in the barn with the rooster. After stamping and colouring it, I'm not sure what to do with the big gap on the bottom half of the right side. Perhaps you have some ideas?"
So I played with several ideas... This is where your vivid imagination gets to roam wild & free. Its is a
"Hi How are you" card.... a "
Happy Birthday" card or an "
Oooops I forgot"
The Barnyard scene is peaceful, gentle and so much can be done from there. So lets keep it low key on the outside and put a dazzling sentiment on the inside. All the sayings in the example, will fit on a regular card to make it personal.
So if you run into a problem in the Barnyard or anywhere else.... pause... take a moment "3, 2, 1..." and then it will all come together.
Rose-Marie has a lot lined up for you at the Show,
including.....
Class & Demos

Creating the Christmas Goose
A little stamping, a little colouring and the Christmas Geese will be passing on your best wishes to your family and friends. The understated colour in this design is what achieves the soft elegance of the card. Join Rosemarie to learn these effective techniques.
