Our Artist in Residence answers your questions
Q: Ginny asks: "There have been times when I want to stamp out most of a stamp, but I don't like how one part looks, and I can draw it in... so I ink the stamp, then take my finger or a q-tip and remove the ink from the area, then stamp it. Is there a better way?"
A: The way you're doing this is fine! Another alternative is to ink the stamp up with a water-based marker and just avoid the areas you want to replace. You can also put a little piece of washi tape over areas that you don't want to print, ink up the image, then remove the tape and stamp.

Feedback From Past Tutorials
Barb has some variations for the Folded Christmas Tree tutorial: "Soooo cute!! I used different sized circles, did some free hand with fancy scissors, and used a 1-1/2" scallop punch for smaller embellishments (that were too cute!)..I can see myself using these a lot! Thanks for the easy tutorial!"
