Tuesdays Tips~Thinking Inking

October 12, 2010

Hi Everyone…Happy Tuesday…

Just a few things to share…I’m really trying to get myself back on my regular posting schedule, life has just been a little busy with work, family, and the usual. Now that we seem to finally have our back to school routine down, I’m hoping to get a little bit more organized….

Tuesday Tip: Last summer Jennifer McGuire did a 9 week series on inking…(Click HERE). Now she is doing an 8 week series called Holiday Thinking Inking.
If you are just getting into stamping and playing with different types of inks, you have to check it out. She offers lots of awesome ideas and tips.

Off to start my day,
Have a great Tuesday….
