Tea Party
Ohh I just love this layout! I bought the flowers last spring break when we went to Seattle and I've been saving them ever since! I even had the paper... but then I went to Edmonton a couple weeks ago and picked up this new paper and embellishments and stickers, and they matched the flowers perfectly... so I made some changes and just love it! I also picked up the dressform die cut from Tim Holtz that I embossed with a folder and then with UTEE for this amazing look. I love all the layers! Paint, ink, stickers, pearls, flowers, stamping... gotta love the layers. :-))
Have a great weekend!

Tin Tape Technique and layout
This next layout for my 8 for 8 layout clubs is super cool! I am having so much fun coming up with cool things we can do as NEW techniques on our layouts! I'm inspired. :-))
So this layout has a few techniques. :-))) First off we will use tin tape and stick it over the chipboard letters that are glued to light cardboard to make these neat looking tags. We'll finish them off with alcohol inks and wham! Awesome tags that look incredible.
We are also going to try the packing tape technique. First we'll apply a layer of packing tape to our patterened paper. Then we'll let it soak for about 20 minutes. Once it's nice and goopy, we'll gently rub the paper off the packing tape to get a tape that is transparent with the print being the patterened paper we used. Ohh I can't wait to show you this fun idea!
My transparent packing tape is the dot print and the words print.
See you soon!

Watercolor Cards with punch!
These cards are so pretty and striking! I used the new papers and brads from the Sale-a-bration flier from Stampin Up! I just love them.
In this class we will make 6 cards. Two of three different designs. I'll show you how to use watercolor paper and you'll even get to take a pack of it home with you! We'll use some of it in the class but whatever we don't use is yours to keep. That way after learning how to use it, you can go home inspired to create some more!
