7 Gypsies Clear Acrylic Stamp Set-Venice~This is my first set I have bought from 7 Gypsies and I kept 1 for Articus Studio use and it is just grand!  I really llike all the designs- I used the clock face over the little tower right next to it and looked very neat.  When I opened the package the stamps are sandwiched between the transparency that has the image and a blank one and I had a heck of a time removing them from the transparency sheet- but once I did- the cling was really good.  When I touched them to the stamp it seemed like the ink just jumped to be on it, ha ha.  They stamped really well, images clear, etc.  Nothing bad to report about them. 
This set has a total of 14 stamps on it.  They combine well for collage.  I used them on old pattern paper (the kind you would make clothes with) and it did very well.  I then adhered them onto a thrift store tin with Claudine Hellmuth matte medium.  They looked pretty good but  I was getting all artsy and thought I would use some walnut ink spray- even though I held it far away it came out pretty heavy and dark so what was to look old and tasteful turned out old and crappy, ha ha. 
$11.95

20702aviguse.jpg

7 Gypsies Clear Acrylic Stamp Set-Avignon~This set comes with a total of  21 stamps.  They are very pretty!!  There are post marks and other Paris mail things, looks like a label for chocolate- they are all in French so can't decipher, the word "Paris" and other assorted items.  Great collection.
$11.95

cityuse.jpg

7 Gypsies City Scape Board Kit~This kit comes with 9 city scape pieces in kraft colord bookboard.  Use them together in a book or try them individually for a cool look.  Cover them with paper, stamp on them, add photos, embellishements, etc.  Drill holes and put them together using book rings or link them with linen tape (found in the book making supplies section).  The largest boards measure approx. 7 7/8" high and approx. 5 7/8" high- varying sizes though-just a gauge.  How will you use them?
$4.99

alpha3use.jpg

7 Gypsies Alphabet Transparencies~Beautiful, ornate, scrolly and fleurishy is a good way to describe these wonderful transparencies. You get one of each letter of the alphabet- 26 in all.  The transparencies are notched on the side, like a rolodex card-you can cut that out if you don't like that look.  They will easily fit onto your Artist Trading Cards (ATC's) because they are the same size- 2 1/" wide and approx. 3 1/2" high.  Use them over your favorite papers, use in books, scrapbooks, altered projects, mixed media and more.
$5.95 Sale $5.25

Elegant Spiral Clips~ These are from 7 Gypsies and are a fun way to clip items to scrapbooks, cards, altered books, etc.  They measure aprox. 1" wide and approx. 1" high.  They remind me of the "flip" hairdos from the late 60's-wouldn't it be fun to use it as hair on a stamped image for the "flip" look!.  They come in a package of 4 in a pretty matte gold finish.  The card on the right shows one of the fun ways you can use these clips as embellishments to your creations.  It also has the funky brass flower charm in the center with a Swarovski crystal in the center along with the Hampton Art Stamp, pair of eyes, and the eyes also have flat back jewels in them-although you really can't see that detail very well.

7 Gypsies 12 x12 Paper, Quadrant Cirque Style~ This paper has 4 separate sections to it.  One section has definitions, another quadrant has a harlequin diamond pattern in black and cream alternationg diamonds, another quadrant has another harlequin patter in blacks and lighter shades- it looks smeared in the scan but it is not, just lighter areas on the design and the 4th quadrant has different random words like family ,kindred, glad, blithe,cherish, children, lovable, passion, ardor and many more.  Each portion of the paper is depicted partially in the picture.   In order to have this size paper fit in a flat rate envelope or flat rate box, I have to cut it in half at the center.  It is a pet peeve of mine that you can't seem to find really pretty paper anymore unless it is in the giant 12" x 12" size.  Sold per individual sheet.
$0.59

7gyptranuse.jpg

7 Gypsies ATC Transparencies~ These are very pretty.  You get 10 different styles, 2 of each style for a total of 20 transparencies.  You can color them with alcohol ink or put over some pretty paper.  They are notched on the sides like a rolodex card and will fit in the 7 Gypsies Turnaround thing (isn't that a professional term!).  I have dearly loved the transparencies that have been on the market- but, my pet peeve, is that you could only get them in 12x12 size.  Now a mini version in a size I like.  Use them on your cards, scrapbooks, etc.   Pkg of 20.

7 Gypsies Black Serpentine Handle~This handle measures approx. 1 7/8" long and approx. 7/16" at its widest area.  It has prongs on each end to adhere to books, boxes, etc.  Pkg. of 2 handles.
$1.69

peachuse.jpg

7 Gypsies Pastel Peach Color Wash- I like washes but what makes this one a little different is how it is packaged and how you apply it.  It comes in a 1 oz. size bottle with an eye-drop applicator.  I think it lends more control over your application.  You can write a name with the applicator, you could do a little design with the wash and then fold your paper in half and smooth it through for a cool Rohrshach (spelling) look.  Although it is called a pastel peach,  it is not a bright peach- almost like a tan, I like the muted tone of the peach.  I think you will like it. 
$1.69 Sale $1.29

7 Gypsies #1 Number Plate~ This is a metal plate that measures approx.  2" wide and approx. 3" high.  You can jazz it up with metal corners, stamp on it in Staz-on white ink and use it in scrapbooks, altered books, birthday cards, anniversaries, etc.  The numeral one is boldly printed in white on black. But- if you don't like that- paint over it with gesso or black paint and make it your own!  Drill a hole for a keychain or other purpose- many possibilities.  Pkg of 1.

7 Gypsies Rubbings-Pretoria Elements~Great way to customize your paper, books, scrapbooks, etc. with rubbings.  Simply cut out the shape you want and use the popsicle stick provided to rub it on the surface you want to cover.  Quick, simple and easy with a great result.  These are black and there are approx. 23 rubbings on this sheet in flourishes, numbers, shapes and borders.  They have a bit of a distressed look to them.  If the rubbings fit the desired medium- you can use them on plain buttons, metal, glass, tins and more.

$0.50

fleurishuse.jpg

7 Gypsies Texture Rubbings-Fleurish~Now when you get these you will think - pink how ugly, what was I thinking.  The picture shows them black but they come pink-but the magic happens when you go to use them.  They are called texture rubbings because they are sticky.  You can use up that foil that has been sitting around for ages.  You can also use glitter too.  They are very cool when you use them, I have been using them with gold foil and the results are very nice.  You apply the rubbing, then pour glitter or apply foil to it and then it comes to life and your project too.  You get approx. 20 rubbings in wonderful fleurish shapes.
Special buy price.
$1.29

scrollsuse.jpg

7 Gypsies Texture Rubbing-Scrolls~These texture scrolls are mostly pretty large-approx. 5 1/2" high which makes them great for scrapbook pages, books and most any other large project.  The sheet has some smaller ones on it also and has approx. 6 large scrolls and 4 smaller scrolly flourishes.  These come pink in color- not like the black shown but then you add your own magic to them as they are sticky and you can use with glue or my particular favorite-foils.

7 Gypsies Bookboard Covers in 3 Vintage Styles

smpl7use.jpg

This book is covered in Graphics 45 paper and also incorporates Ranger glossy Accents as highlights for the glasses at the top and another area on the book.  It is hard to tell from this picture but it also has 2 texture rubbings on it that have been texturized with gold foil.  There is a fleur-de-lis at the bottom left and and the left side of the book on the black paper is a scroll.  They aren't very bold, even as you hold the book, but I like subtle accents.

Below is a picture of a book I made incorporating the black gaffer tape.  It has a cool tag packaging along with it and I also incorporated the tag on the back of the book.  This is a piano hinge style book.

If you are ordering multiple books or kits (typically 3 or more-depending on other items purchased- they may require an additional shipping charge to mail in the flat rate box. (9-18-07)

I love blank books.  They can be so useful.  One of the ways I like to use them is for keeping notes from a class or classes I have taken.  Teachers often give you useful little tips in class.  They are especially useful to make notes if the class does not have a printed handout to refer to when you want to make the project again.  Since I like to bead and there are so many types of beads out there, I decorated a similar type book to the large blank book shown below with beads on the outside and on the inside I made notes on different kinds of seads beads, size information, wire guages and so on.  I also keep a little book handy in my purse when I think I might be going book shopping so that I don't duplicate one of my craft books at home.    If you have a lot of different Pearl X colors or somethnig like sparkling H2O's, you can make a list of the colors so they are not duplicated.   Use it to keep a list of ink pads and their refills, alcohol inks, etc.  This is invaluable info when you attend a convention!  these blank books have a nice sturdy book board cover to them so you could make a mini scrapbook or brag book for all you moms and grandmothers out there that is easy to carry with you. 
What will you use your blank book for?
 

OUT OF OFFICE- I will be out of the office the last week in July to attend the Craft & Hobby Trade Assoc show.  I will resume shipping on Monday, August 2nd.  However, it may be a little slow going since I will be having some family visiting and out of town again part of 2nd week in August.  I won't have email access the last week in July, but feel free to email and/or order and I will get to them when I return.
