Class Samples

Hello everyone and lovely to see you here. Later on today I will be teaching a class. We will do several projects: Alter an envelope using Gesso, paints, paper serviettes and background stamping; altering a tag using texture paste and embossing folders as well as paints inks stamps etc; making a mini book out of two A4 sheets of card; and finally making some flowers. The workshop will run from 10 until 3, so you can imagine, we will be busy.

Here are just some of the samples I made:
Altered envelope


Another envelope


Flowers using various Spellbinder dies. These were of course inspired by the flowers I made with Rita last Monday
Well, hope you will all have a great creative weekend and see you next time!

    WAUW I sure wish, I could be the fly on the wall there today and follow your class close up too. But that´s a bit impossible from here, so I´ll have to do with enjoying your gorgeous work here hun, and it´s just such a pleasure to watch it every single time. It is soooo beautiful and I soo love the colors here too.
    Have a wonderful week-end and lots of fun.

    I'm so late visiting that it must all be over by now! Hope it went brilliantly - with those samples I've not really much doubt on that front... only wish I could come and play too.
