Give Thanks Canvas

The fabulous Jenni Boisvert made this beautiful fall canvas using 7gypsies papers, Gypsy Market chipboard letters and the new fall colors of Shimmerz paint. What a great (and easy) idea this is! Since Jenni is part of the educational team for Shimmerz you can find “how to” photos as well as a tutorial video on…

A Gypsy life

A fine trip to Paris

Book Cover-Vintage We were so inspired by Sande Krieger’s Paris Journal made from one of our book covers that we asked if we could share some up close and personal pictures. Sande is the queen of embellishment in our book (no pun intended)! She can use a lot but make it look like it’s just…

Look who’s come by for a visit…

Our gypsy guest artist this month is none other than Tena Sprenger! Tena has been using good ‘ole gypsy ingenuity since her days at Memory Lane. She brings her own spin to everything she does and we love it! We think she has a soft spot in her heart for everything gypsy too! Thanks Tena……

Are you a TRUE gypsy?

Okay, so for all you TRUE gypsies out there, Janelle has created a fabulous wall hanging. Do you not love it? That girl can throw everything on (including the kitchen sink) and make it look like the most fabulous piece of cool art work ever. Read on to see how she did it… Acrylic Wall…

Acrylic challenge

The gypsies have been busy working on some ways to use the 7gypsies acrylic books this week.

We think we came up…
