Well that's a big OOPS!

I thought I posted this card, I thought I scanned this card ...nope!

I'm ready now *Ü*

We'll celebrate Lottie & Diana's birthdays next week,

May 10th.

On to today's card, this is a Tri Shutter card.

WE have done them in the past where I hand cut each one.

I bought the die to do this at our recent convention.

If you are thinking about attending and you weren't in last Thursday's class

please let me know, lots of die cutting for me, thanks.

Please bring your basic class kit

including

color medium of your choice.

I used colored pencils & colorless blender.

I used gold gel pen on the image

Black edger optional.

I think that's it, see you Thursday.

We will celebrate Joan's birthday on April 19.

Today's card features Ken Oliver.

I bought this Stamp and die last year when I was in San Antonio.

We will be doing an emboss resist with his famous color burst powders and fluid metallic.

Instead of the random application that we are used to doing 

we will apply the powders more specifically.

Please bring your basic class kit

including

round paint brush size 8/10

cup for water

non stick craft mat

paper towel

metallic edger

I think that's it, was great seeing everyone today!

See you Thursday.
