Have a great weekend, and be sure to check back on Monday for one final project from Judi.

Focus on Stamping
One of the things we as a scrapbook manufacturer love about being involved in the industry is how often the different genres of crafting overlap. While most crafters have a particular favorite craft, it is a rare crafter who only engages in that one specific hobby. So many of us cultivate our creativity by dabbling in scrapbooking, stamping, sewing, painting, knitting, etc (the list could go on and on). At Melissa Frances we strive to manufacture a product line which will inspire and delight creative souls no matter what their creative hobby of choice is. This week on the blog, we are delighted to highlight a fellow manufacturer whose stamps greatly enhance vintage-styled projects and co-ordinate beautifully with the Melissa Frances collections. A week to celebrate the fusion of stamping and Melissa Frances, if you will. Please help us welcome Pink Persimmon!
Co-owner Judi Andersen has created many beautiful samples combining Melissa Frances products with her stamps. Today we wanted to show you her interpretation of the Melissa Frances Vintage Colonial Houses. Judi used her new Santa's Sleigh stamp set with our houses and created one house with a true vintage feel, and one with a more retro/bright feel. She also did a wonderful job of styling the photos. I love how staging the Melissa Frances Bottle Brush Trees around the houses lends a true village-like atmosphere to each vignette.
