Party day! Celebrating Sept & Oct birthdays
Susan, Renee & Sherry
Nancy, Wendy & Bette

Trying to get into the holiday season,
first up Halloween.
I bought this stamp way back from China Phoenix,
made by Stamp a Mania.
What you can't see is the ghosts body is on an 
action wobble, he moves!
We'll also be doing a little distress oxide stenciling.
I just love how the colors show up on colored paper.



Please bring your basic class kit 
including
non stick craft mat
Halloween stencils if you have them
distress oxide (one needed) & foam blender
carved pumpkin
wilted purple
black soot
peeled paint
scissors
black edger

That should do it, have a great week!

Today's card started out with getting more uses out of your large die cuts.
I used a background die as a stencil.
Some random stamping and you have a background.
For the focal image I used a Spellbinder stamp and die by Stephanie Low.
I just love this feather.
Finished it off with a die cut sentiment.

Please bring your basic class kit
including
Black edger
preferred coloring medium
I used sharpies
2 distress oxides that blend well
and foam blenders
I used
mermaid lagoon 
twisted citron
or
worn lipstick
shaded lilac

That should do it, have a great week!

Saturday @ NDB September 15

Changing things up a bit will do Acrylic Pouring this month.
October I will be back with Q&E cards.

Acrylic pouring is all the rage right now, 
look on Pinterest, Instagram and Facebook and 
you will see some amazing art.

This will be a basic pour class where you will do 4 pours each different.
We will use 3 4x6 canvas boards and one 6x6 wrapped canvas.
The cost for this class is $25.
Class will be limited so you have enough space to do the pours.
The only thing you will need is something to transport your finished pieces on,
a box or flat cardboard with wax paper.
The pieces will take 24 hours to dry.

Well a few more pieces that I have done since I originally posted this.




One I started embellishing!


Pour, drip, drizzle

Dirty Pour

Dirty Flip cup

Dirty Flip and drag









Please email me if you would like to take this class.
We will start at 10:15 and be finished by 11:30.
Classes are held at  
North Domingo Baca Multigenerational Center.
 7521 Carmel Ave NE, Albuquerque, NM 87113

This is so much fun and addicting, each piece comes out different.
I will provide a handout with all the information for this class.

Have a great day and hope to see you soon!
