These are the cards we made:

A busy month of classes

Today was a full house, but loads of fun. We created 8 Christmas cards with a bit of a twist. One of my ladies had asked if we could do a One Sheet wonder technique, so I thought this would make a great way to showcase this technique. We used an A4 sheet of Whisper White and created our own Christmas background. We sponged, stamped masked and used bleach to stamp. Once our background was created we cut up the sheet to create our 8 cards.

If anyone would like instructions on my One Sheet Wonder I would be happy to send the instructions, all you need to do is email me.

This is the sheet I created before it was cut up. Can you see the stamp sets we used.?

Here are the eight cards we made, the beauty of this type of technique is that each one is unique.

Changes to Stamp a Stack and Christmas in July and One Sheet Wonder class

Yep you read it right, my next class is all of the above. Before we get started we will create our card background using the One Sheet Wonder technique. This will give us a complete A4 decorated sheet of card stock. We will then cut up the card for our Stamp a Stack. We will be making 8 cards and because so many have asked when I am doing Christmas cards, so I decided to make a Christmas in July event.

Yes I know July will be over by the time we have the classes, I am going to pretend it is July!!! I'm good at pretending, how about you?

Arty Farty class

I was asked by a fellow demonstrator if I would conduct an Arty Farty class at her place. I love sharing special techniques and showing just how easy they are, even though they look so complicated.

The cards we made started out as a sheet of A4 Very Vanilla that went through layers of sponging, masking, stamping and finally stamping with bleach.

We then cut up the sheet to make the decorated layer of a Tri Shutter card. Everyone used 3 different colours of ink so each one was so different and absolutely gorgeous. Once they were in strips they took on a different look again. All the ladies were thrilled with this step.

The Tri shutter base was Natural White and went beautifully with all the colours. We decorated the front using Faux silk flowers (we made by distressing and pulling apart several scallop circles), our clay flowers and an acetate butterfly coloured with the blendabilities.

Phew finally finished.

This was only the first card of the day. Yep get the tough one over first and then the rest are easy peasy. The second one was a 3x3 card we used the same technique, minus the masking and stamping layers. I wanted them to use the same inks and this time sponge very softly to show how the same colours can look so different.

The last one was using the remainder of the A4 sheet.

This was such a great day and I loved all the completely different colour combinations. I think all the ladies had a great time.

One Sheet Wonder Card Class

Classes are over for another month. I love the One Sheet Wonder and I think quite a few others have fallen for it as well.
There was a choice of three colour combinations and stamp sets.

Eight cards were made from these A4 sheets.

 

 

 

Aren't they lovely?

 

 

June classes now revealed

Now that the excitement of Convention is behind me, I am finally able to reveal the class you shall be doing in June. Drum roll please.....
It is the One Sheet Wonder. For those that are not familiar with this technique, it is a page that you create yourself by stamping randomly on card. Then the fun bit is cutting it up as backgrounds for your cards.
In this class you will complete 8 cards. It is a great way to get a stash of cards quickly.
