When Wendy Wyman was just 4 years old, she announced that she was
going to be an artist when she grew up. Many years, and many sketchbooks
later, she had earned a BFA in Graphic Design. For the next 11 years found
Wendy worked in advertising, freelancing, and ran a printing company. And
then it happened...Wendy's mom became a stamping addict, and the rest was
history! It was Wendy's mom's encouragement that led her to turn her
illustrations into fine art rubber stamps.
Wendy's husband, Bill, was also looking for a career change, and
jumped at the idea of learning a new skill. And so....in 1996, Wendy Wyman, and
her husband Bill Welsh established Repeat Impressions Stamps.
Each stamp is designed by Wendy, and manufactured by Bill in their home
workshop!
Today, the Rock Stars design team for Repeat
Impressions, have joined together for a special hop for Wendy's
Birthday!
We are hoping Wendy loves ATCs, so we've changed things up - instead of cards,
we all created ATCs for Wendy. They were mailed to Cheri, one of our Rock Stars, who has created
a wonderful album for them, and sent them on to Wendy. (ATCs are Artist Trading Cards sized to 2.5 by 3.5 inches.)
Wendy, you are one of the sweetest, and most generous people we
know. As a 'boss', rarely do we find ourselves on a team that is more
professionally run, or more organized! You are so understanding of our
personal issues, and it's a joy to work with you and your products!
We want to wish you a very Happy Birthday!
We look up to, admire and respect you.
May your day today be filled with love and laughter!
And remember....the more candles you have, the bigger the wish you
are allowed!
Here are my ATCs for Wendy:
Please hop along to see the fabulous projects my fellow Rock Stars
