Just Add Snow!

One of the four projects we'll complete in class on Saturday uses my favorite stamp set:  Holiday Lineup.
I saw several versions of this card and instantly wanted to recreate it.  Bleach on Crumb Cake cardstock yields AWESOME results!!!

We used the blender pens to color the hats and scarves and accessories.  Make sure you color your images FIRST.

I have a separate aqua painter dedicated to bleach and clearly LABELED.  Fill the reservoir with pure bleach and paint away.  Once it dries, the cardstock is bleached.  Different cardstock reacts differently, each color and brand yields different results.  Play around (it's so much better than bleaching your laundry!).

Getting these out of order will ruin your marker and/or blender pens.  Please send me any questions you may have.

There is a seat still open for class on Saturday, please drop me an email if you're interested.  The class is held in Odenton, MD and starts promptly at 2:30pm.  I'd love to see you.

Holiday Lineup

Hiya. Happy weekend! Can we talk about Christmas? It's just around the corner, less than 3 months away!! It's time to kick the holiday blog posts in high gear!

I stamped the image a couple of times, colored the elves and punched them out - trying to get a different combination of elves in each square.

Spotlighting, Part Deux - Holiday Style

Hi friends, is it too early to break out the Holiday cards? I've been working on all kinds of crazy holiday projects and I'm busting at the seems wanting to share them with you! Let's get started, shall we? Let's start with another spotlighting card. Missed the technique? Click here to get caught up on this easy technique. The image was stamped twice, colored once, raised on a 1-3/8" circle of bashful blue.

Another tip - there are labels at the end of each post. If you click on the label, all the blog entries using that one particular label will pull up for you. I use the names of stamp sets for the labels.
