Stamps and Nonsense

by Pauline Laing

Welcome to my now quite well-established web site. This is a personal site, non-commercial and with no ads. Nothing will pop up, and everything should be family friendly. There are a few links to the people that make or sell items I've used - as a courtesy to them.

The topic of this site is Rubber Stamping, a fun craft that inspires a lot of people these days to do something other than watch TV. Yay! It's all original and all my own work, except as shown. I hope you find something useful, entertaining or fun.

Projects

• Tea Prinkling - what on earth is that? May 2003
• Bunky the Art Sparrow - by popular demand (his), Bunky has his own page now. June 2003
• Altered Book Project - a special altered book project. Being updated as I do it. June 2003
• The Lost Alice Book - a rather fun project that got lost in the post. I just wish I hadn't photographed it in front of the kettle, but there you go.
• The Mars Book - a simple project I really liked (Sep 2003)
• Altered Postcards - Quicker than altered books, and you get to post them. One of them features Legolas. Really. (Oct 03)
• The Penguin Project - keeping the kids amused, and proving that stamping is a creative kids' activity! (Feb 2004)
• The Diva Game - I was the "Diva" in April 2005 in this game, run by the SHFun group (an offshoot of Stamphappy). (May 05)
• Lego, not Stamping - This is more nonsense than stamps, but check out my cool Lego salt and pepper shakers! (May 06)

Swaps

• Single Image Swap 2003 - my entries are here, and the ones I got from Cally Pitt are here
• Alice in Wonderland Swap - great swap to cheer me up after the Lost Alice book (Added Oct 2003)

Links

• Here's a list of interesting links you might find useful.
• My daughter's site - very good if you like Harry Potter and Lego! And who doesn't?
• Not to be outdone, number two son has a web site now (Added April 2006)
• And of course it follows that number one son has to have one... (Added May 2006)

Who am I?

I'm Pauline Laing from Melbourne, Australia. Thanks for looking...

I used to have a photo of me looking frazzled. Here's me happily sipping a cup of coffee in a cafe in Paris. Really! Now THAT is relaxing!

I sometimes sell things on Ebay. Have a look here just in case there is some crafty thing I've finished with that you would like.

My old web site is still at this address ... hush, it doesn't know I'm moving. I won't be updating anything there, and all new stuff will be coming here. One day the old site will just disappear without trace. We'll cope.
