| Meet Linda
Reid....
Since Linda was the FIRST customer for gg design's "carved
look" images, it seemed fitting she should be the first customer
in the spotlight for this event.
(For more information about Linda, check the following pages.
Linda is well known to on-line stampers. Her work has been highlighted
on many sites and she has been published in virtually every stamp
magazine there is.
We asked guest artists (during a special sale) to "select
your favorite or most useful stamp."
She says:
Well, let's see.........I use the floral minis a lot.....and
the watering can and the other tall plant - I also like the
harvest plate.
So.....we've selected the "other tall plant" (both
versions) for the sale.
A helpful hint from Linda-- Try doing a background paper
with a "koosh" ball - "stamp" it on an ink pad and then on the
paper.....over and over....with the same or different colors
Linda has "orchestrated" the production of some of
gg designs stamps. Most notably, the STARS
with texture stamps, featured in a recent convention.
During this project's "rehearsal" she suggested doing
a "flag" stamp in a similar style. Out of this grew
the "Star Stamp Sections"
in a variety of styles and sizes.
A very busy person indeed! Juggling her job (see heradditional
information next page), it's fascinating, her "Grandma Duties,"
and all her other committments. (Including MUCH unique, hand stamping
and other hand made items for her daughter's recent wedding.) You
wonder how she finds the time to turn out the wonderful pieces she
shares so generously with us all.
Selecting images for this sale was a bit of a challenge.
Linda writes: I really don't have an opinion - as you know, I
rarely wait for sales - if I want an image, I buy it :~)
NOTE: It was because of this, the "Early Bird"
discount was put into place. Linda is always first in line when
new images are shown and there are no images left to entice her
when sale time arrives. It somehow didn't seem fair that she never
got the sale advantage.
