Online Card Class Day 1
I am taking the Online Card Class Watercolor exploring Mediums. I decided to do a card following Jennifer McGuire’s example of using embossing before watercolouring. I actually made two cards with this method and they both turned out well. On the first one I used liquid masking to do the blue aura around the card but on the second one I just freehanded the blue aura and it turned out fine, as well.
My Favorite Things Sketch Challenge
My Favorite Things has a new sketch Challenge this week. Sketch is very simple………….just a mosaic circle on a plain card base. Good thing that there were Design team samples that indicated that the sketch could be loosely interpreted. What I noticed right away in the sketch was the mosaic pieces so I decided that would be my main focus. I had just received a new stamp set from My Favorite Things with several related but distinctive sentiments included. Perfect for a mosaic says I………………………………..
Supplies: My Favorite things Soda Pop stamp set, Dynamics Soda Pop Bottles die, Hero Arts and Simon Says Stamp dye inks, Versafine dye ink in Onyx black, Lifestyle crafts circle die, Recollections card base, Dear Lizzy Lucky Charm 6 X 6 patterned paper, Tombow tape runner and Scor tape.
