Good Morning!
When Wendy Wyman was just 4 years old, she announced that she was going to be an artist when she grew up. Many years, and many sketchbooks later, she had earned a BFA in Graphic Design.
For the next 11 years found Wendy worked in advertising, freelancing, and ran a printing company.
And then it happened...Wendy's mom became a stamping addict, and the rest was history! It was Wendy's mom's encouragement that led her to turn her illustrations into fine art rubber stamps.
Wendy's husband, Bill, was also looking for a career change, and jumped at the idea of learning a new skill.
And so....in 1996, Wendy Wyman, and her husband Bill Welsh established Repeat Impressions Stamps. Each stamp is designed by Wendy, and manufactured by Bill in their home workshop!
Today, the design team for Repeat Impressions, the Rock Stars, have joined together
with a special hop for Wendy's Birthday!
Wendy loves ATC's, so we've changed things up - instead of cards, we all created ATC's for Wendy. They were mailed to Cheri, one of our Rock Stars, who has created a wonderful album for them, and sent them on to Wendy.
Wendy, you are one of the sweetest, and most generous people we know.
As a 'boss', rarely do we find ourselves on a team that is more professionally run,
or more organized! You are so understanding of our personal issues, and it's a joy to work with you and your products!
We want to wish you a very Happy Birthday!
We look up to, admire and respect you.
We look up to, admire and respect you.
May your day today be filled with love and laughter!
And remember....the more candles you have, the bigger the wish you are allowed!
Here are my ATC's for Wendy:

Pretty ATC's Patti. Love the butterfly with the Kraft background on the first one... fun and cheerful background on the second... love those circles... that fish is so sweet... love the 'water'.
What wonderful ATCs. You did a beautiful job on each one! I love the little fish!
These are all so cool and just so fun!! Love the cat one with the ultra cool background!! They are fun - years ago when I attended Stampin' Up! conventions I would make 100 of these - in one style to trade with other demonstrators!! Seeing these fun ATC's took me back to that time - Quite lovely and fun!! Have a blessed day!!
