I love Chris Cozen's use of nature in her pieces so I am totally thrilled to have received this wonderful POD stencil set from Artist Cellar . BTW Chris's new book with Julie Pritchard is incredible. This coming June, Chris will be teaching at Spokane Art Supply and I cannot wait to see how she uses these stencils! When I get a new stencil I like to see how they look just outlined in black so that is always my first step. Once I saw this I knew I wanted to draw them in pencil in mass. Come back and see this as a full page in my doodling journal later this week.

I met you a couple of times taking your classes when you came to AZ. (at the Glendale thing). I got out of rubber stamping and altered arts for a few years and want to take it up again. My question is, didn't you do a book that had a lot of projects done with Omni gel? I could almost swear it was you but looking through my book of yours i don't see it covered. Is it in a different book you did? Or last maybe it wasn't you. and if not i am so so sorry. I could of just sworn it was. Do you still come to AZ? I dont know if they still have that convention in the summer or not. Thanks for any help you have!
I'm glad i found your blog. Now I can see what you are up to :)! My email is abetzolt@mac.com

It was so awesome seeing you at the Rhinebeck NY show again this year. I was the woman chatting you up towards the end of the show on Sat. about various SB celebs. OHH and how much you inspire me.
I totally forgot to ask you about the micro glaze which you demo'd last year. Can you remind me wht to do with this so I can use it LOL.
Thanks so much and I hope it was a good show.

Since that book an even better product came along Tranz-it Gel From JudiKins, works in the same way as Omni with better results on more surfaces!
