February ATC 2017

Hey Everyone! I hope that you are all as ready for the weekend as I am. It has been a very crazy week here, and this blog has gotten a lot of attention from me this week, and hopefully it continues. There are so many amazing things happening with Amanda Fluri Designs and I cannot wait to share them all with you in the upcoming weeks. You aren't going to want to miss out thats for sure!

If you are just joining my blog, you should go back a couple of posts to learn a little bit more about ATCs. I just joined a trading group a couple of months ago, and you send out an ATC when you receive one. So I wanted to share with each of you the ATCs that I have made, and will do my best to continually post them as I do them so that you can enjoy!

Here's my February ATC...

About Me

My name is Amanda and I am 27 years old. I first began scrapbooking pages and trying to learn/teach my way through it. I then decided to join a local crop night and learned how to put together various page layouts and how to use different tools and techniques. I then moved away to school. I searched for a stress release while I was away and stumbled upon Under Construction Stamps, and the owner (who now is basically my 2nd mom) taught me tons. I took card making classes, book classes, etc and LOVED every minute of it. 2009 was when I was first introduced to wood mount rubber stamps, and from there it became a hobby and an addiction in a sense. I have been making cards to give to family and friends since 2009 and recently I have been making a lot of commission cards for friends, family and people in the public. I love what I do and this blog is a way of helping to inspire others as well as showing off incredible stamp images from some very talented and incredible designers.
