A Cut Above Online Card Class....Day 3






Day 3....
Shaped Cards

Teachers:
Jennifer McGuire, Kristina Werner and Nichol Magouirk.

They are teaching techniques for using your dies (Part 1) and Silhouette machines (Part 2).

Ok so here is my master plan....
I am busting out some of the homework from some of the 5 classes I am enrolled in....
Play Time. NEXT UP-! will be Watercolor and Lettering. YEAH.

I know that I am so very lucky to be able to create for a living and I am so grateful for my flexibility. HOWEVER- Classes like these make me not want to leave the painting/craft studio. When I should be in the Glass studio... Sigh with a HUGE smile.

I love everything about this quote from Tim Holtz stamps: the words and the font.
"Live in the moment and make it so beautiful that it will be worth remembering."





































Materials:
Paper: SEI (from SO long ago) Black Orchid
Spellbinders die
Ink: Close to my Heart in Smoothie
Stamps: Quote and Flower Tim Holtz; Woodgrain: Hero Arts
Markers: Tombow (for watercolor look)
Jewels: Prima say it is crystals

See you soon and thank you for your wonderful comments...
Truly love to read them.
