Stamp Collage Christmas tree card

Add caption

I recently made this Christmas tree from postage stamps. The idea came initially from US Greetings stamps featuring a Christmas tree bauble. I thought they would look lovely hanging from the tree along with other "stamps" including a Christmas stocking, bell, angels and toys.

Merry Christmas!

These are available in Made in Stroud Shop, Stroud, Gloucestershire and also in the pop up shop in Beechwood Shopping centre, Cheltenham which is called Artshop run by the disabilities charity Artshape. They have a great range of reasonably priced artwork made by students, tutors and supporters of Artshape. A great place to purchase unusual and individual gifts.

The shop will be open until 24th December.

Christmas card - Stamp Collaged Angel

Inspired by a wooden angel seen in a shop in Orvieto, Italy this Angel's wings are made from stamps of Finland. Stamps from all over the world have also been used in this Christmas card creation. Available in Made In Stroud Shop and also the Artshape Artshop in Beechwood Shopping Centre, Cheltenham.

Open Studio - I Saw three ships

News of my exhibition, I Saw Three Ships, has appeared in both Stroud newspapers, The Stroud News and Journal and Stroud Life, in the What's On pages. Hopefully with leaflets also having been distributed in shops such as Made in Stroud, Stroud Art Shop, Pegasus art shop, Stroud Subscription rooms and via e mail and post to known contacts, should have a few visitors this week-end.
All is now ready and the mince pies are in the oven! Just hoping for a good day, weatherwise.
Park in Bisley road by the cemetery and walk short distance along to the studio. Plenty of signs to help visitors find the way.
I'm really pleased with new work including a Christmas tree, made entirely from stamps from all over the world, and particularly love the Christmas tree baubles and Christmas stockings which are made from US Christmas stamps!
