Using background stamps

 DATE:  Sunday, July 7th

TIME:  12:30 - 2:30

COST:  $25

Yikes!  July already?  Why is it that the summer whips by but winter stays, and stays, and ....  Well, let's make the best of it then, shall we?  I have a fun class planned using background stamps -- you know the ones -- they cover the complete face of a card.  They are so versatile and lend so much to your cards -- but why don't we use them more often?  Maybe they're put in a "safe" place for future use (so safe that you can't find them?)?

We'll start with a very simple embossed background, but will fill parts of it in with some bright markers.  It doesn't get any easier than this.


Our next card features a background stamp with different layers and substrates and using embossing powder again.  A very different look than our first card, but very effective.


And card number three uses a technique that we used back in May.  Do you recognize the technique?


This last card I used yellow and orange, but as suggested in the newsletter, you may wish to bring colors that make you happy -- just two will do!  Be sure and check the newsletter for the list of things to bring to class.

In the meantime, have a happy 4th of July!  Eat, drink and be very merry.  

See you on the 7th!
