Unique - Saturday April 8, 2017 (Techniques/cards)

Today's class is all about using one stamp in multiple ways.
I challenged myself to use this Penny Black stamp called Wintry Trail
 and create four seasonal cards.
I also tried a new to me technique with my MISTI, that we'll be using.

Winter

Spring

Summer

Fall

Please call Scraps Galore 858 1080 to reserve your spot.
Kits will not be available due to the hands on nature of this class.
Saturday April 8
10:30 am
cost $15


 Thanks, Susan *Ü*

Today's class will be a lesson about masking, 
reverse masking and multiple stamping with the MISTI.
We'll be using this wonderful stamp and die set 
from Elizabeth Craft Designs.

The monochromatic one really didn't give the distinction I was expecting.
I prefer the analogous colors, those next to each other on the color wheel.
Of course the choice is yours!


Please bring your basic class kit
including
black edger
ballpoint glue pen
two colors of distress inks and 
foam blenders
sand eraser

That should do it!
Have a wonderful week,
Susan *Ü*

Today's card is a combination of several card techniques I've recently seen.
We will be using a die cut mask and
applying ink with color dusters or a dry paint brush.
I love the soft application of color and how it fades to the right.
There are so many possibilities!


Please bring your basic class kit
including
5 colors of dye ink
red, yellow,green,blue, purple
I used distress inks.
color duster or paint brush for each color
paint brush should be 1/2" or bigger
Black edger
tweezer

That should do it!
Today we celebrate Sue & AdD birthdays.

Have a great week!

for me, by me

This is where you will find things that I have created that are not for classes.
I belong to different groups so sometimes it's a challenge or items to swap.
I hope you enjoy this side of me.
Thanks, Susan *Ü*

Unique - Saturday March 25, 2017 (Techniques/cards)

This class was a challenge to create and so much fun.
Warning the pictures don't do the cards justice!

Foiling is all the craze right now, but I didn't want to invest 
in a laminator or other machines on the market.

This class is foiling without a machine!
We will make 3 cards with 5 different ways to add foil to your projects.
There will also be some extra foil remnants that you can go home 
with and use them any way you want.

They didn't scan well, but the are also on display at the store




This is a hands on class and I will not be able to do kits.
Class cost $15
Call Scraps Galore 858 1080 to reserve your spot
Thanks, Susan *Ü*
