Our History
NikidyNaks Creations·Friday, 22 March 2019·
I started stamping many moons ago with just a handful of Stamps and a few Inkpads. After coming across a company called Stampscapes, I wanted to give scene stamping a go. My first efforts were very basic but gave me the encouragement to practice more. Family members could suddenly buy a set of promarkers for me as a Christmas /Birthday gift a
nd watch a slightly insane woman squeak with joy. Finding element stamps has proved a big of a problem in the UK, so many of mine have come from USA and the Netherlands. An element stamp is a stone, a patch of grass and animal etc... that you build up a scene with. There doesn't seem to be much of a call of this type of stamping in the UK. A picture will take several days to complete, usually between hanging out washing, school runs and of course feeding Nikidynaks and the rest of the menagerie. Cards are something I have always done,but I enjoy putting a little scene in some and painting them in with Watercolour. Again, like the stampscenes, I don’t tend to do multiples of the same design, unless asked. I like to be organic with it and basically go with the flo. After being told by several people to sell my work, and after a difficult year, I decided to give it a try. After talking to Lulu (my daughters nickname) she disappeared upstairs and hence Nikidynaks Creations was born.
