Welcome to the Stamping Ground Art Stamps Website!

EVENTS

The proposed December 17th event will NOT go ahead.

Sorry that won't be happening. We will try to meet in February 2007. Watch this space.


 

 

Stamping Around Stamp Club

Our venue is Beckington Village Hall, on the outskirts of Frome.  A lovely hall, great facilities, lots of parking and simple to find see map page or ring me for directions).  Starting at 7pm and finishing at 9.45pm.  There will be an informal workshop activity (cost around £5.00), new stock to peruse and to buy, catalogues to browse through and order from and friends to meet!  Tea and buns (or more probably biscuits given my lack of baking skills) will be available through the evening, so come along and catch up with news, bring your own projects to show off and share, and admire others!

 

I'm Amanda, and I know you'll enjoy looking around and that you'll find something to interest you, inspire you, make you smile (or even laugh), and much else besides. At the moment the site is undergoing a lot of changes and additions so you'll need to keep coming back to check on what's going on.

In between times keep sending into the Gallery Pages, and please send any comments , suggestions and ideas that you have..... all welcome.....!


 

The first workshop is now available. Everything you need to make the featured card or item plus some extra ideas for the stamp not available on the website!


This is your chance to set yourself a personal challenge, and pick up some ideas from everyone else too ! Every few weeks there will be a different theme set for the Gallery Challenge. Take the idea, do whatever you want with it, and send it in to us for publication on the new gallery page. No more than three cards per person please, and nothing larger than 6"x4" so we can fit them all on.

The first Challenge theme is : 'Floral with a Twist' 

We all have several floral stamps lurking somewhere, so let's see some new slants on the classic image - perhaps in a monotone colourway, or a complete colour turnaround with green petals and pink leaves, a minimal approach, or a total explosion of colour right up to the edge! The choice is yours..... all cards will appear on the Gallery Challenge page so do please include the stamp/paper etc credit, and your name & email address. Cards for this first theme to come in up to the end of May please. Watch the page for yours to appear !

To see your work in cyberspace you can either Email or post it.
