Tonight I'm quietly cutting some stamps to use in my artwork. My jumping off point has been a wonderful book, Making an Impression by Geninne Zlatkis. I used her designs to make a few Christmas presents which were well received. I find cutting the stamps to be a very Zen experience. As 2012 draws to a close, so does this blog. I'm trying to discipline myself enough to paint each day, and I've started a new blog, Paint and Pencils. Please visit it to see what I'm doing and to encourage me with your comments. Thank you for being a friend and visiting this blog over the last few years. 
I love Gennine's book also! I have enjoyed this blog so much. I am sad to see it end, but am looking forward to your new blog and all your paintings. -Marlene
