She is a true artist and I was absolutely thrilled that she agreed to join us as a Guest this month! Thank you so much, Julee! I asked her to share a little about herself! 

Julee Tilman

Owner of Verve Stamps

Hi, I’m Julee Tilman, a dabbler in many arts, mama to 3.5 year old twins and Owner/Illustator/Wonder Woman at Verve Stamps.  I’ve been stamping for 20+ years and love a good card layout.  I absolutely adore mixed-media, distressing and lots of layers, but also thrive on trying new things and blurring the lines between styles.  On any given day it’s anyone’s guess which stamping style I’ll be sharing on my blog, Poetic Artistry. 

The designers have entered their cards below and they have explained the style they used and the way they were inspired...we cannot wait to see how YOU are inspired!
