Have you been watching, waiting? Have you heard about my latest inspiration??

The juxtaposed line is my latest creation!

 

I’m keeping it simple. I work better when I keep it simple. J

 

Juxtaposed will be a subscription-based rubber and collage sampler. Each month, subscribers will receive the following:

 

Members will all be subscribed (unless opting out) to an online email group list, where cards featuring juxtaposed images will be uploaded to the photo files, tips will be shared, and monitored on-topic discussion will be valued. Subscription will be STRICTLY LIMITED to 100 members. These stamp designs will not be offered to the public for one year. (They may not be offered then, either.)

 

This works for me because:

I can pre-pack/pre-press/pre-organize 100 sets of each theme.

I am excited and motivated to work with new images, and love to share my vision with small like-minded audiences.

I can produce and sell at discount because I will not be marketing/conventioning/advertising these except to a limited audience.

It’s for fun. And I like fun. J

 

These will all be collage-type images, sifted from vintage and vintage-looking sources, thrown together in meaningful ways, meant to stir your creative pot.

 

I am excited! You are too?

Subscription is $10 a month, payable only 1 year in advance at this time.

I am pressing 100, that’s it, don’t want to think about any more than that right now.

I am sending the 100 subscribers a signed and numbered print at some point during the subscription period;

numbers will be assigned by subscriber (1st to subscribe is #1.)

 

Subscriptions begin mailing in August 2005. When I have 100, sign-ups are closed.

There is no image preview. If you like the stuff shown above, and like my former images, you’ll like this stuff.

If you don’t like it one month… sell it on ebay, gift it, whatever. I don’t think you’ll be disappointed.

(as always, the stamps will be deeply etched, fine for clay or fabric as well as paper.
collage sheets and transparencies will be laser/heat printed.)

 

Subscription price is $120 plus $24 shipping/handling (to account for monthly mailings.)

 

Out of country subscription options: $120 plus $60 for monthly global priority, or

$120 plus $36 for quarterly mailings (stamps will ship 3 months at a time, 4 times a year: October, Jan, April, July.)

 

To subscribe, send $144 via paypal (Credit cards and personal checks accepted through the paypal.com site) to MelanieSage@gmail.com

Or click on the link below. You will receive a confirmation and a Subscriber number.

Please pass on this subscription information to like-minded stamp and collage artists.

As of August 19th, there are 20 more subscription spaces. Late subscribers receive all back issues; there will be no discounts for shipping.

I will post a notice here when the subscription limit has been reached.

 

*Please note that there is no set date for mailings during the month, and the mailings may occur on any day during each month.
