If you remember this thread from this past Fall ~ I just want to add a brief update and a huge THANK YOU!!
Your support and encouragement at the time I wrote the original post here has meant so much to me. I am very pleased to tell you that I have found a home for my artwork ~ on the farm: Cornish Heritage Farms! Shady Tree Studio stamps will be coming to their store soon!
The sneak peeks for the first stamps have begun: - there have been images on Cornish Heritage Farms design team blogs;
- on January 6th, one of my stamps was featured in Ellen Hutson's CLASSroom by the incredibly talented Debbie Olson;
- and I have begun posting samples in my gallery here on Splitcoaststampers.
This has been such an incredible experience. From your generous and thoughtful comments here and in the gallery, to meeting the amazing family behind CHF. . . and now stretching my creative muscles with the help of Lisa Strahl, their art director, and getting to know life on "the Farm" . . . the journey has just begun -- and I took my first steps here.
So, thank you. To all of you who left comments, sent me messages, and replied to this thread . . . I thank you for your heartwarming words and enthusiasm . . . it's been wonderful. I hope you like the stamps!
And I hope you can visit the CHF store on the 15th ~ or any time, really, because it's an amazing place!
Ooooh, I didn't realise it was you! Congratulations Nancy! The stamps are absolutely awesome and they're going to make such beautiful cards, thanks for sharing your artwork with us all.

I remember this thread, and when I saw the sneak peak on Debbie Olson's blog, I remembered it then, too! I am super excited that you are with CHF- I am addicted to their stamps and am well on my way to the CHF club silver level. Your flower stamps will help me get there! CHF stamps are awesome quality, as is the customer service. Here's to many more stamps from CHF!

Nancy, I guess I didn't see the other thread, but I am so excited for you, nevertheless! Clearly CHF knows a good thing when they see it, lol! I can see why they grabbed you up so quickly! Congratulations!
Your stamps are wonderful! So your success story was sure to come about. I especially love the 'Artsy Blooms'. Need to go purchase that one and maybe the Iris and maybe...... what the heck, I might as well get them all!
Yes, I did get them all! And I used your "Artsy Blooms" on the pages I made for February's Monthly Scripture Swap. I don't always get excited about my own work, but I love the way this turned out and I think you deserve the credit.
Here is the page... Obedience
How sweet! Thank you, GarnetJ, for sharing the link ~ I love it!! Your work is so pretty! I'm glad to know you are enjoying your stamps. Keep watching for more designs ;)
Oh, I can't wait to see poppies "poppin' " up here and there! I know how you feel though, Cinnistew ~ we've all been sick here, too, and it's no fun. I have a new order from CHF coming, and I hope I'm feeling like stamping when it comes!
Thanks, Nancy. I've had this crud for almost three weeks now and am on my second course of antibiotics. I had a kidney-pancreas transplant 12 years ago so they have decided that Cipro is the best option and are watching this infection really closely. I have a love/hate relationship with Cipro... it really works for me but I get all the side effects (dizziness, nausea) for the first 4-5 days. :(
Hope you all are feeling better soon. Keep an eye on your family... whatever this is that is going around it turns into a nasty infection really fast!
How sweet! Thank you, GarnetJ, for sharing the link ~ I love it!! Your work is so pretty! I'm glad to know you are enjoying your stamps. Keep watching for more designs ;)
Oooh yes, I'll second that - do keep watching for more designs!
Sorry to hear so many people are feeling under the weather. You take care of yourself Cinnistew, sounds like you need extra special care with that infection.
Right, off to look at Joan's gallery and see if she got those poppies inky yet!
C'mon girl, we could use a little summer substitute around here! :lol: We'll be looking out for it Joan, maybe let us know when we should go hunting again?
Do you remember this thread? THANK YOU :) !
