Charlie Chaplin Friendship Greeting

I've been playing around with my new Distress Stains and I love how this card turned out. I pulled out a bunch of my wood block rubber stamps and paired them up according to theme and which ones I thought I could use because I wanted a more steampunky look. I got to use my new Charlie Chaplin rubber stamp from Stamper's Best. The quote reads "A day without laughter is a day wasted." Which is something I really truly believe. I really enjoyed creating this card, it was so much fun and I love that sense of pride and accomplishment that you get when you step back, look at your project and just give yourself a little pat on the back. I hope you enjoy this project as much as I do. Leave a comment at the bottom of the page if you like!

    Yep, I think I like as much as you do. The collage images are wonderful, the colors really stand out and the images stamped in black and white is brilliant

How To Effectively Sell: Part III - FABG!

Hello All, Let me preface this post by saying that the FABG selling technique is not my original idea. When I was in commission sales I read a selling book that saved my life (and my paycheck) by Harry J. Friedman called "No Thanks, I'm Just Looking". While not the most well written book, Friedman does a great job of explaining how his years in the industry have helped him to form his professional retail sales techniques and turn shoppers into buyers. I recommend you pick this book up! It has saved my bacon many many times!! So, What *is* FABG? FABG stands for Feature, Advantage, Benefit, Grabber. Any item can be FABG'ed. Features - features are parts of the piece. Either a part of the piece or a characteristic of the piece. Often times this is the size, color, texture, materials used, etc. Advantages - this is tied directly to the features of the item. An advantage is what the customer will gain from the feature. Friedman uses the phrase "which means&q

Artists Collective: #4 - Robert Norman Ross

Image
One of my earliest memories during my childhood was watching Bob Ross as a family with my parents and brother in the evenings on PBS. Bob's calm voice seemed to put me into a trance and with just a few simple strokes, Bob had created a beautiful pieces of work that now are highly valued and sought after by collectors around the world. Bob Ross is probably one of the most influential creators in my artists collective and I still find myself just as entranced and captivated by Bob's creations on the canvas today as I was when I was growing up. Its not hard to see why The Joy of Painting has had such an enduring impact on society. (It still plays on PBS and there are millions of videos on youtube!) Bob Ross is even widely considered the grandfather of ASMR ! (Do you get the tingles? Find my favorite ASMR youtubers HERE and HERE .) One thing I found out while writing this article was that Bob Ross was once compared to Fred Rogers, which in and of itself should be considered a
