Susan and I at CHA

Just like all of you we are busy with our lives day in and day out. It is so fun to get away with friends and be in the art world. We hope you have an art event soon in your future. Beverly

Susan Mostek

It is truly wonderful to have dear friends and I am happy to say one of mine is Susan Mostek. Susan has a busy life with her husband, two children, Ginger the dog, extended family, many friends and church but still finds time to do so much in the art world. She teaches, demonstrates for B Line Designs, is a member of an art group, and still has the time to make beautiful samples for us. Thank you!

Susan and I took the opportunity to head off to CHA in California and had a great time. Seeing friends, demonstrating, learning new techniques, and getting inspired. Here are some of Susan's samples that where displayed at the show.

Clare Howell

Hi Everybody,

I'd like to introduce you to a really great stamper. Clare Howell is from the San Diego, California area and works at Stamping Details. She is such fun to be around and really talented. She bleach stamped her clothing for CHA with B Line Design stamps and they were awesome.

Thank you Clare for getting our images out there. :)

Stampaway 2010

Stampaway USA is a great stamping convention in Ohio every August. We are happy to announce we will have a booth and we are already making preparations. Here is a gift certificate that will be awarded at the show using some stamps from our March 1st release "Tattered Damask".

Gentlemen of all ages

Man and his best friend are captured in these sample by Michelle Bodensteiner. From Aiden with a leash on his dog and sentiments about the importance of one person, to the fun loving card about a missing husband and dog, Michelle has captured the spirit of the men in our lives. My hope is that her creativity will inspire you to make cards for the men and boys in your life. Check out our catalogue "A Pick Me Up" to see many of the images. Thank you Michelle for putting so much of yourself into each and everyone of the projects.

Tattered Damask supplement

We have a new supplement that is to be released March 1st. I love how the designs came out and am excited to present them to you. Here is the cover and the rest will follow very soon...
