Purple Faerie Paper Crafts

Today I wanted to share a fairly new and upcoming rubber stamp company.... Purple Faerie Paper Crafts! Owner/designer Nina Perrin opened Purple Faerie Paper Crafts on-line store in January of this year but has been designing since 1990. She stated..."I didn't have the connection between applying my designs to stamps until 2004." Lucky for us she did make that connection!

When designing stamps Nina says... "My designs today are a combination of what I'd like to see in a stamp to have multiple uses. A stamp that can be used to enhance the use of a specific product or technique in combination for many types of projects. A good example of this is the Quilt Panel stamps that are being released this month (May). These stamps are wonderful for use on cards, scrapbook pages but can also be used on fabric or within altered book projects. I sized them specifically with this in mind. Also these panels are great to be used with specific techniques such as faux stitching, faux layering and paper piecing. Wonderful to use in combination with other products such as Grunge Board, Color wash and alcohol inks.

At this time Purple Faerie has 18 different stamps available (with additional stamps being released in May) for purchase on their web-site Purple Faerie Paper Crafts . First off you will notice the awesome ATC Info Stamps....from the basics to the ornate - something for every one's taste! Followed by some cute "Artistic" birthday goodies including balloons, cake & presents! She even offers up a neat assortment of Celtic designs from a Celtic Knot to the clever little "Kiss Me I'm Irish" text stamp.

My own personal favorite designs have to be the women of Purple Faerie Paper Crafts...Faerie B, Circa 1917 and Fashion Flair! I actually loved the Circa 1917 & Fashion Flair so much I had to buy them as soon as I saw them :)

All stamps offered by Nina are clear unmounted acrylic stamps. For your convenience Purple Faerie Purple accepts Visa, Master Card, American Express, Discover, Pay Pal & Money Orders AND she DOES ship internationally!! She tries to ship through USPS whenever possible to help keep costs down. Just FYI ~ Purple Faerie IS a Angel Company and has an Angel Policy stamp available.

I'll let you check out the rest of Nina's stamps and be sure to stop back in a few days when her new stamps are released!! In addition to her stamps, Nina also offers up an assortment of goodies for making ATC's, Inchies and more!

Now, not only does Purple Faerie offer some great rubber stamps ~ they also have a super design team gallery and Nina puts out a monthly newsletter which has been in distribution for many years now. The newsletter offers a monthly article featuring a paper crafter in the paper crafting community. It also highlights online resources for the paper crafter with listings of links, as well as exploring the Challenge Teams monthly challenges, new product line releases and store specials. I was honored to be asked to write the newsletter article for the May issue! Be sure to sign up so you can see what topic I chose to write about ;)

Till next time friends....happy stamping!!
