Inked | Design (+ bonus coupon and giveaway!)

I'm so excited to announce that my new workshop is live at Studio Calico! Come join me for Inked // Design, where I'll teach you to incorporate stamps as major design elements in your paper crafting projects.

There are five weeks of lessons which focus on stamping and design principles such as contrast, repetition and layering. My contributors and I will be sharing layouts and Project Life spreads to inspire you, and there's a class message board for us to chat all month long.

Class begins on October 12. Since this is the last workshop of the Inked series, Studio Calico is offering a special bundle as well! Bundle and save for the last chance price of $20 and enroll in all three workshops - a savings of 30%! To find out more about the Inked 2015 class bundle, click here. To purchase just Inked // Design, add this item to your cart. This bundle offer is available through October 31st at 11:59 EST.

And what would a stamping workshop be without new stamps? I am so happy to finally show you guys these stamp sets - it's been hard to keep them under wraps since I love them so much! I had the opportunity to design two new stamp sets for this class, Good Times and Everyday Explorer, and you'll find lots of graphic elements and fun phrases in these sets.

I'm also really excited to have Tina design two additional stamp sets for this class. Her stamps have a more whimsical look with her beautiful illustrations and signature handlettering! You can find Bloom and House Plants in the shop as well.

Now would also be the perfect time to buy those stamping supplies and ink pads you've been eyeing! Studio Calico just came out with some beautiful new pigment inks, or you can snag their limited edition dye inks! The Color Theory dye inks are the primary ink pads I use and I love the wide range of colors.

And as a bonus for my blog readers, I'm sharing with you an exclusive coupon ;) Get 20% off your stamping supplies, excluding stamps, with this code: STAMPING20 Enjoy!

I'm so excited for Inked // Design to begin and have been working hard on the tutorials and lessons. I really hope you join me for this workshop and I can't wait to share my love of stamping with you! See you in class!

  3. I love all stamps. My problem is I don't know how to use them "out of the box". So I would love design ideas/ booklets with the stamps. Ideas how to use them on cards, in PL in scrapbook, etc. I don't see all the possibilities that some more creative people do. For example you used simple circle stamps to make an awesome layout!! I would never have thought to do that. Great page and great blog! Thanks for the chance to win!

  12. The sort of stamps I'd like to see in the future... perhaps something around cute houses! You know all those colorful houses in Nyhavn, Copenhagen? It'd be cute to be able to do a layout with lots of colors + house stamps. But the houses can be for other things, too--moving in, childhood memories, just reminiscent of Home Sweet Home. :)

  13. I love the stamp set you're giving away. Very thoughtful of you. I love travel stamps as much as the next guy but what about a stamp set about the things you do/see around your own town that can also be used when traveling. Museum, resturant, library, shopping, statues, park etc.

  17. I'm going to go with CraftCherry on this one, we definitely need some fitness and wellness stamps. Trying to find embellishments and stickers to express a fit and fun lifestyle are hard to find! And, as a girl without kids, a lot of my scrapbooking is about my everyday life, which includes workouts! Thanks for the opportunity- I love your work!

  27. I would love to see a weekend/at home stamp set - day trips, yard work, gardening, movie night and baking kind of things :) And maybe a matching stamp set for the fabulous Wander journaling cards in the shop!

  28. I think it'd be interesting to see a stamp set that focuses on different times of the day, either in separate sets or combined...for example, a morning one with suns and coffees and sentiments like "rise and shine!" and an evening one with moons and pillows and sentiments like "bedtime stories" :) You'd probably be able to think of more creative ideas for it than I can but something along those lines! :)
