Travel / Explore themed cards + layout

 

Have you guessed yet what the beginner class feature technique is yet??

For this one, I introduced the private beginner ladies into the world of stencils.. My favourite!!

Using blending brushes and inks, they got to have a quick glimpse into a mini version of a mixed media layout base. 

Stamping, Stencilling with ink & Stencilling with modelling paste.

They also got to cut out a pattern paper 1" frame and keeping the center scraps for matting..  

While working at the local store teaching classes, I usually tried to keep the theme of the week the same between the cards and scrapbooking classes by using the same collections and products. 

Let me know what you think!

Christmas card mail-out

 MERRY CHRISTMAS!

This year, I was inspired by a fellow Sassy crafter Shannon to try something a bit new for card bases.. I loved it so much I'm actually going to give it a go with trying to adapt it to a Scrapbook layout too.. :) 

Anyway, it's such a fun technique of cluster stamping in a sort of cross in the middle of your plain cardstock, then cutting that cardstock up into the 4 sections sized for the card toppers. 
I got a little carried away and didn't exactly follow the concept of a cross though.. oops.. lol.. 

I actually ended up with 3 different stamp set designs (only two are included below, sorry)
I stamped with a solid Black, a Coral ink and Forrest green ink to coordinate best with the OUTBACK EVE collection - Kaisercraft. The added a little Gold ink for the stencil that matches with the gold glitter cardstock I added as a topper. I finished off the cards by inking all edges with a Golden Black ink so it wasn't as harsh as the stamped black images. 

In total I made 24 of these cards... And most of them have found their way to the USA and one to the UK... 

We would like to wish all of my crafting friends and family a very Merry Christmas, I hope you all have a lovely and wonderful day fill with great moments that will become memories cherished and a bright New Year coming ahead. Toni, Lane & Hunter.. xoxo

Easter theme Art / Daily Journal page

 Easter theme art / daily journal page

It’s EASTER and it’s my favourite time of the year! In central Qld we are finally cooling down and we are having Chocolate for Breakfast! 😆🍫

Today I am bringing you a fast & fun basic idea for an Art Journal / Daily Journal page. The video is 3min and thankfully only took me about 12min from start to finish in real creative time.

It starts with stamping randomly to make a background, then the smooshing technique. Layer some scrap papers for a mat to add super cute stickers. Use both glue & 3D foam tape to get dimension and texture elementals so the eyes swoop over the design. I used some scraps from an older Easter collection from Echo Park. Hope you all enjoy..
