Man in the Moon

 







Here´s my man in the moon for this week´s Sunday Postcard Art Challenge. I have collaged a man to a background made with stamps from CiaoBella.

Colour Play

 
If you´re a stamper, you probably know that lack of understanding in the face of someone you´re telling about your hobby. Especially if people deal with rubber stamps in their office, they can´t imagine what you can do with them if you use other motives and use them differently and with colours. 

What I love about stamping is that you can use the same stamps quite differently over and over, even if you don´t change your basic design. I never make duplicates (like many stampers do), but like to make "variations on a theme".

For example here´s a holiday card I´ve made with just three stamps from Cats on Apple Trees, Charlie & Paulchen, and Butterer. I´ve used the same arrangement on both cards and used watercolours on both backgrounds, but you can see that the different colours make a great difference.

I can´t decide which one I prefer, can you?
