3/3/2016 Thursday's at Scraps Galore

With the rubber stamp show rapidly approaching I thought
 it would be fun to make an Art Impressions spinner card.
Art Impressions will be at the show.
The dog is chasing it's tail.
You wind it up before putting it in an envelope and
 when the recipient opens the dog spins!




Please bring your basic class kit
including
Brown edger
bone folder
tweezer
favorite coloring medium
(I'll bring my watercolor pencils)
water brush/paint brush
spray bottle w/ water

That should do it, have a great week.

Today's class we will be working with stencils
using a technique called double stencilling.
These make great backgrounds 
but I kept it simple and just added a sentiment. 
Once I had everything out I made quite a few (understatement)
with two different colors of card stock and
two different embossing powders.
So today we will have choices!




  






Please bring your basic class kit
including
non stick craft mat
white/gold/silver edger
if you have please bring
stencil
 blending tool with a new foam piece
favorite distress ink and foam blender

That should do it!
Can you believe it's the last class of February!
Enjoy your week & see you soon.

Today I have a masculine card in a unique fold.
I have extended the card from where it was originally intended to end
 so I can hide my message.
Simple but effective modification.
Please bring your basic class kit
including
bone folder
vintage photo ink and blender
brown edger

That should do it, enjoy the heat wave!
See you on Thursday,

ball point glue pen
tweezers
scissors
poker
vintage photo ink and blending tool
wink of stella optional
