USING DIES TO EMBOSS

DATE:  Sunday, April 27th

TIME:  12:30 to 2:30

COST:  $25

Let's use those large cover plate dies!  They are all lovely when used as a background effect on your cards.  But how about we get more use out of them?  In this next class we'll be using these dies for embossing.  They give your cards a lovely textured effect.  

Using some ink blending, stamping and wet embossing and then going to dry embossing - whew!  Sounds like a lot, but it's really simple but effective.  You be the judge...

Here's what you'll be making.  They are in no special order.

Using shades if blue, we'll ink blend this top layer.  Next will be inking and wet embossing.  Finale step is dry embossing using a large face plate die. 


No ink blending here, but we will be splattering...


And more ink blending with this one, wet emboss and dry emboss.


Be sure and check the newsletter to see what inks and other tools to bring with you.  There are several openings in this class, so you know the drill - email, text, call, carrier pigeon to reserve your spot.

I look forward to seeing you all again.

Double Flap Pull Out Cards

DATE:  Sunday, April 13th

TIME:  12:30 - 2:30

COST:  $25

Someone please tell me where March went?  I blinked after St. Patty's Day and - GONE!  Well, let's get going with April then with a special fun fold card.  I think you'll be making a lot of these.  Remember, you are only hampered by your imagination!!  I will have written instructions for this project.

These are in no particular order - take a look.

First up is a great Get Well card...



And who doesn't like butterflies?  We'll have some fun with those fluttery beauties...



And our last card features flowers, of course!  



And this is what these cards look like when opened.  Fun, yes?!?!

Using a combination of a bit of embossing, some coloring and stenciling, these cards go together rather quickly.  I'm already thinking ahead to Christmas and what I can do with this style card.  

There are two openings left in this class, so text, email, phone, carrier pigeon - reserve your seat!

Check the newsletter to see what to bring to class.

See you soon!
