Another Club Card

We first practiced the color spritzer tool on this card at club the other night. You can't see too well on the photo, but the mellow moss layer has been sprayed with the tool. It gives that layer a subtle but neat effect.

We used markers to colour in the Fresh Cut stamp.

Club is a very fun way to learn some new techniques and make friends. Another one is starting in July and will run until December.
You can read more about it here or email me.

Supplies: Fresh Cuts stamp set, always artichoke, mellow moss, pale plum, whisper white card stock, stazon black ink, always artichoke classic stampin' pad, pale plum, mellow moss, always artichoke markers, color spritzer tool, always artichoke grosgrain ribbon, small oval and large oval punches.

Fun at Club With the Color Spritzer Tool

We had a lot of fun at club night playing with the color spritzer tool. You insert a marker into the tool and then spray dots of ink on  your page.
The fun is to work with what you get.

Stamping with Bleach

Spring cleaning? time to use bleach... However, using bleach on cards is a lot more fun than cleaning...
For this card I made an "ink" pad using paper towels and some bleach. It took some trial and error to find the right amount of bleach so the stamped image would show up the way I wanted. Experiment - it's fun. Just make sure to rinse your stamp under water right away and then condition it again with the Stampin' Mist.

We made this card at club this week. Another club session will start in July and run until December. You can find more information about club here, or email me.

Supplies: Eastern Blooms stamp set, chocolate chip, riding hood red, so saffron card stock, Bella Rose designer series paper, eyelet border punch, chocolate chip taffeta ribbon.
