There's a NEW playspace in town!
Yesterday was my annual eye exam. After it, i decided to take a walk and do a little window shopping. well, my window shopping turned into real shopping when i discovered what opened! As an artist, imagine my excitement when i saw this:
Paper Source! YaY! I am so excited! It's like a playspace for me. When I need inspiration, I often will go to a bookstore and scour the books in the art section or I'll go to an art supply store and shop (A new pen or paint will work wonders for artist block). That is exactly what I did at Paper Source. They carry such beauty as this...
I just love handmade papers, japanese papers especially! the colors, textures, feel..yum!
They also have a wonderful space to have classes, birthday parties and get togethers...
Who wants to come here with me and have a Friday night art journaling party complete with wine and cheese?
Something I liked was the look of these stamps together. I've always had a fondness for typography and this just appealed to me.
I really don't use stamps in my art, but how cool is this?
Paper Source also carries stencils, gel pens, micron pens, bind it all machines, beautiful art calendars, fun little books and all kinds of little gifts. They also have cardstock in a variety of colors with matching letter weight, and envelopes of various sizes. good to know when you are planning a party.
But my latest guilty pleasure is washi tape and tissue tape. Paper Source has it!
(some of this is fabric tape :) oooohhhh)
Another thing I found hiding on a table was this wonderful game:
I didn't buy it, but i think I'll be going back for it. I'm thinking it will be a fun start off point for a crazy art journaling page.
And when I return, these guys are waiting for me...
I think I'm going to need to get them too!!!
