Happy 12-12-12!

Today is December 12th - 12-12-12 - so thought I'd post 12 of something...

Here, in no particular order, are some of my favorite artists.

1. Tim Holtz - the master of distress techniques

3. Christy Tomlinson - original "She Art" artist making wonderfully layered and "messy" mixed media art
4. Dyan Reaveley - International Sr. Educator for Ranger, Inc. with her own line of stencils, stamps and spray mists
5. Donna Downey - originally a scrapbook/paper artist but has added painting and art journaling to her list of talents
6. Heidi Swapp - love that she has made a comeback with her own line of papers, digi products, sprays, etc.
7. Dina Wakley - colorful art journaler extraordinaire 
8. Jennifer McGuire - awesome "clean" stamper sharing lots of tips and techniques on her blog
9. Ronda Palazzari - on design team for Maya Rd. and author of a new book - love her style
10. Beryl Taylor - mixed media/textile artist
11. Anna Dabrowski (aka Finnabair) - amazing Finnish mixed media artist and teacher
