The following is from the last day of leadership. Shelli showed us a pillow and… Read More »

Love You Much

Good Morning Stampers I think I can say I finally caught up with everything after my trip to leadership.  I think I did, anyway, okay, I haven't vacuumed or dusted as yet but I will before my class on Wednesday (LOL). I've been experimenting with the Shimmer Paint spray and I think I got carried away with spraying the heart.  I didn't realize this until I took pictures of the… Read More »

Almost Amethyst Valentine

Good Morning Stampers I'm working on a card for the New Techniques class showing how to use shimmer paint as a spray on your card but first I thought I'd show you a card I made before leadership while I was waiting for my "valentine" stamps to come in. I used the magnetic movers and shapers to die cut the valentine on the right side of the card.  I then… Read More »

Medallion with a shimmer

I inked up the stamp using Bravo Burgundy then added Champaign Mist with a sponge dauber randomly over the stamp.   I inked up the half pearl from Pretties Kit with Bravo Burgundy Craft Ink and then  used Clear Emboss Powder. … Read More »
