To participate in our class sessions, you will need inks, adhesives, and Blending Brushes.

The ink colours we’ll be using are from our Brights Colour Collection: Melon Mambo, Flirty Flamingo, Pumpkin Pie, Daffodil Delight, Lemon Lime Twist, Granny Apple Green, Coastal Cabana, Azure Afternoon and Berry Burst, along with Memento Tuxedo Black, but you can substitute with what you already have! You will need Blending Brushes - we recommend 4 to 6 brushes, either regular (153611 - $21 for 3) or small (160518 - $20 for 3). A sponge dauber can be substituted for use with the black ink.

  • 6 written tutorials in a printable PDF including colour photos and measurements 

 

REGISTRATION AND PAYMENT IS DUE NO LATER THAN AUG 7, 2024. However, products sometimes sell out so it’s important to register as early as possible (and don’t forget your Bonus Days Coupons if you order by July 31st). 

 

Option for residents outside of Canada:  

For $22 CAD (about $16 USD), you will have access to the videos and PDF tutorials and can join us in our exclusive Facebook group! Register on the link below by Aug 21, 2024 and I’ll send you a PayPal invoice. 

 

Card kits will be mailed by Aug 12th. We know that shipping times can vary so there is a slight possibility that they will arrive after the class. If so, you can still enjoy the class with us and put your card kits together afterwards! You can also pick up your package from my home in Hope, BC.

Frosted Forest - Ink & Inspiration Blog Hop - July 2024

 



Welcome to July's Ink & Inspiration Blog Hop! I am hopping with talented Stampin' Up! Demonstrators from all over the world! This month, we were inspired to create from this photo and colours.


I chose just two of these colours to use this month...Garden Green and Old Olive. I used the awesome Frosted Forest Bundle along with the Frosted Forest Decorative Masks. The masks are so fun to use to make the tree! I used Pecan Pie, Old Olive and Garden Green inks with the masks, on Basic Beige Cardstock.


The background was embossed with the upcoming Birch Wood 3D Embossing Folder, available September 3rd in the September - December 2024 Mini Catalogue. I used a Blending Brush to add some Old Olive ink to the bottom of the piece. Also in that catalogue, you'll find the Natural Tones Linen Thread, in Garden Green, that I used on this card.


The focal piece is matted with Old Olive Cardstock and that is mounted on Season of Green & Gold 12" x 12" Specialty Designer Series Paper. That was adhered to a Basic Beige card base. The sentiment was stamped in Garden Green on Old Olive and die cut with Greetings of the Season Dies. I added Transparent Adhesive-Backed Dots in Garden Green to finish.

Enjoy hopping!

Coast to Coast Creators Blog Hop - Sketch Challenge


Welcome to July's Coast to Coast Creators Hop! This month, we are using sketches from page 22 of the Annual Catalogue! I chose to use this sketch:


I thought that this sketch worked well with the Greatest Adventure Stamp Set and the Take to the Sky Designer Series Paper!


I used a Boho Blue card base embossed with the So Swirly Embossing Folder. I used a Blending Brush to add a little Balmy Blue ink over the embossing which brought it closer to the sky colour in the cloud paper. I also used Basic Black and Basic White cardstock. The cirlces are cut with the Spotlight on Nature Dies.


The train is stamped with Smoky Slate ink and the circles are adhered with Stampin' Dimensionals.


The sentiment is from the Keeping Tabs Stamp Set. It is stamped in Versamark ink and heat embossed with White Embossing Powder using a Heat Tool. I die cut it using the Changing Leaves Dies. I added some white Baker's Twine and Adhesive-Backed Metallic Gems to finish.

Be sure to hop around below to see the gorgeous projects by my talented colleagues!
