Have to migrate website to a new server!

I have just been notified that my hosting service for the past 5 years is getting out of the hosting business so I have to move everything to a new server. With that in mind September's posting will be a bit delayed....check back after Labor Day!

Haiku in August




Slide Show too fast? Click the Pause (||) button and then you can use the arrows to click through at your own speed.....If anyone can tell me how to slow down a Picasa slide show I am all ears (or eyes and fingers....) You can click any image to be taken to a link for the stamp used.

We've been experiencing a 10 heat wave here in the Northwest. Seattle set an all time high and here in Portland we missed our high by 1 degree, but the length of consecutive days above 100 may have beaten the records. We mostly don't have air conditioning in our homes as we hardly ever use it so I have been a prisoner of the basement!

Hope you enjoy this slide show. Mention the Art Neko Blog when ordering any of our Haiku collection between now and August 15th and get 25% off on any of our haiku stamps or sheets.

Keep cool! I'm trying to!

For the remainder of July we are offering our Japanese Gardens 3 sheet of unmounted stamps at 25% off if you mention Art Neko Blog when placing your order. Bonnie, Dee and Heather have made some really nice cards using images from this sheet which you can see in the slide show above. You can see who made each card by holding your mouse over the card and you can slow-down, pause, or speed up the slideshow by using the buttons at the bottom left of the slideshow pane.

Hope you all are having a great summer--it goes so fast, or so it seems the older I get!

If you click on the link above (in purple text) it will take you to a page where you can see the thumbnails of each image as well as a partial image of the sheet. Click any of those links to find detail information. You can also use our search function at the top of any page on the website to help you find stamp images you might be looking for--not all stamps are fully identified in the search database, but this will help you find a lot. You can also look at our themed catalog page by clicking catalog at the top of any webpage on the website.

India Influence Images

This blog posting is in honor of my granddaughter Haley who was just visiting for two weeks. She has taken lessons in and enjoys Bangra dancing and she and her cousin Hilary performed a Bangra dance to go along with the Indian food feast at our son David's wedding three summers ago--so I guess this is also in honor of David and Lorie's wedding anniversary this month.
You can find these images on our website by clicking India.

Korea Sheet



Hover your mouse on the slides above to see the item number and the name of the person who created the samples shown. You can also slow down, speed up or pause the slides by using the buttons below the slide window.

Well, hopefully we are back on track--but then one never knows what is waiting around the corner. We still are working on moving up and resettling my husband's mother from Albuquerque to Portland and I have grandkids arriving next week for two weeks -- but barring any unforeseen calamities I should be able to changeout our specials every two weeks or so.

This week we are featuring our Korea Sheet. You can see the individual images as well as some samples in the slide show above. Dee, Heather and Bonnie created samples especially in honor of Father's Day as well as others. Barbie Dopson, Sandra Grimes and Kavi Coulson also have samples in this posting's slide show above. Send us a copies of your work with Art Neko and Taylored Stamps and we will add them into our slide shows.
