Art by Nancy Maxwell James

{Whimsical Seashell Bottles}

July 18, 2010

As seen on the Paper Whimsy Inspiration Blog…you can find more details on how I made these bottles there.

I am super excited,honored, and BLESSED to announce that I am now designing for Paper Whimsy. I have been smitten since my little patties first touched a sheet of these wonderful whimsical images almost a year ago. Then I was blessed with meeting Gale and so many other lovely Paper Whimsy gals last September in Ann Arbor, Michigan. Since then I just can’t stop using them in my artwork!

I am looking forward to this whimsical journey and plan to have lots of fun creating…if you haven’t checked out Paper Whimsy lately…you really should. Gale released some very exciting new products today…

My altered bottles will also be available in my Etsy Shop
