Polished Stone Class

This class was so cool.  we used ink and inked up glossy cardstock.  When it is dry then you stamp your image and decorate.  Besides the ink we used Galaxy gold, copper and silver.  That gave it a cool look.  See images.


MY Favorite one.  Luv the floss we added.  This was made with 3 color inks and Galaxy gold.  Isn't he just majestic...

Perfect Pearls Class

This class was so much fun.  I finally learned how to use my perfect pearls.  This one we put pearl perfect pearls into a dollar store watercolor paint palette added water and painted our stamped images.  SOOO COOL.






This card we used versamark to stamp our image then we inked the page up with purple and blue.  Look how the stamp resisted the ink.  This was done on glossy paper.


This Card with the Moose we stamped our images and then added the perfect pearls and then brushed off the excess.  The copper color was soo cool.  on the moose part we put perfect pearls in a little bit of water brushed it on heated it to dry it quickly then stamped the moose.  The Moose is stamped with ink.


I also have a lighthouse card that I forgot to take pictures of and it was stamped and then we used perfect pearls and brushed the excess off.  Quick and easy and beautiful.  Will add the picture once I take it.  LUV IT.

Faux Leather and Cork tags Cards

Here are some cards using liquid applicator, many inks which made it look and feel like faux suede leather.  The liquid applicator you squeeze a little out on wax paper, use the brayer and brayer your paper once only.  Use the heater to dry the paper.  Then you start with lighter inks and work you way to the darker inks (it was a yellow, orange, amber, and two other browns).  Then you stamp your image on the paper after it is all dried.  If feels like suede.  So Cool.

The other card we used cork tags.  We stamped tag stamps and the letters or sayings and cut them out and they already had adhesive on the back.  I LUV THESE.  I gave Joe my cork tag card.  LOL.


MOTHERS DAY CARD (tag)

Very First Card Class

This is the very first card class my mother and I attended.  We learned a lot since we have never made cards before.  The flowers are stamped with versamark and then we chalked the colors on.  The swirly design is versamark stamped then we used a brayer to ink over the image.  You can also use clear embossing powder on the image and the design would pop out even more.  The two birds are stamped with versamark and black embossing powder.  The background is just versamark.  The last one with one bird is the background is stamped and we embossed with clear embossing powder and then sprayed with ink.  Very Very fun class.
