Hello all,
I needed a little break from Christmas cards. I pulled out an older stamp, but paired it with a new sentiment. It hits home this week. Connor has been traveling and I've been eating whatever the kids will eat. I miss adult food. I hope this gives you a bit of a chuckle!
Hello,
Another catch up post, before the Akron convention this weekend. I'm teaching a class about this scrappy technique. This card is make just like the wave card , but instead of white cardstock, I used black cardstock and rainbow strips. The rainbow just pops off of the black cardstock.
Hello friends.
I make a lot of cards and my scrap bins are always overflowing. This has become one of my favorite techniques to help cull down the bulk. There are several different ways to incorporate this technique into your design. I hope this class helps you see the possibilities. Do you have a favorite? I'd love to know!!
On each blog post you can find and detailed photos and links to video tutorials.
Key points from class:
1. Remember how you cut your scraps makes a huge difference. Don't cut triangles. Refer back to this video if you can't remember how to cut.
2. leave a small gap between each strip. It will help with the end look
3. Put a line of glue on your background paper using a fine tip glue bottle. Bearly Art Glue- Amazon or Taylored Expressions--best glue ever! especially for small places!
4. Let glue dry before trimming off extras.

Hi there!
I want you to meet Rosie and Bernie. They are best friends and they go on all sorts of adventures together. This is my first adventure with them... but it won't be my last. I had so much fun, I'm excited to ink them up again.
If you are coloring along with me, the copic colors are listed below. I drew in the sand to give the treasure chest something to sit on.
