KENG Community Card Classes 2013

The ladies love  our card classes.. they have a fantastic time...

With this first card I took along my draw or Scrap Designer Series Papers and the Big Shot Top Note die cut... The ladies chose the colours they liked and pasted them onto another card front... Then we ran it through the Big Shot to cut it out.. this can give you potentially 2 cards... One with the top note cut out and the other with the negative of the top note...  I love using scraps and inspiring others to do something creative  and different....

Another Class we did last year was a Punch Art Poo Bear card... Kelly made a beautiful honey bee hive to cover a mistake on her card.. It was BRILLIANT!!! So cute!!






Catherine was very happy with her card!!!

We made this cute clothesline card.... Everyone changed things a little.... and they all looked so good!!!


Glitter on the clouds..
Double clothes lines..
Colouring the clouds

Having the washing falling off
the clothesline

                                                    
A Bird on the line and
A Hill Hoist Clothesline....







This Cute Santa Suit card was a Hit with the ladies too.. It's a Gate Fold card..
We used the Decorative label punch a a small one to make the belt buckle out of the silver Glimmer paper...



And this CUTE Rudolf Reindeer Punch art card was also a hit... Natasha felt she needed to put his bottom bursting out the back of the card.. What an awesome idea!!!
I suggested on the inside you could put some crape paper for his body...

Off Cut Cards

I love when you save bits for and pieces for ages and then you find a FANTASTIC idea to utilize them!!! This is a card that is a CLASSIC example of it!!!!

You know how when you cut your matting for your cards out of card stock you end up with little strips left over.. well I have been saving them for a while now.. I placed all the colours into a plastic sleeve.. Then I took it along to My Community Craft Group and gave the lady's free range to create a card of their own choosing... I had a sample of the basic design and they went from there... I am ALWAYS amazed by others creativity and colour choices etc.. I learn from them as much as they learn from me!!  


These ones were similar to the origional design...

Some of my ladies bring their own stuff to "GLITZ" up their projects.... And this is what 3 of them did with Glitter glue, Bling, and Paper doilies.. Just goes to show that you can step up any simple design and make it MORE....

I hope you enjoy creating with scraps too!!!

Foil Art Frame

I was so impressed with Master 10's finished work of art that it was one of those pieces you just have to frame and put on the wall... Master 10  had to used chalk pastels on black card to draw his own interpretation of a Picasso portrait of himself..
Because the Art was so AMAZING... I wanted the frame to be special.. it had to match his FANTASTIC Picasso self portrait....

After a few days of contemplation I came up with the idea of pressed foiling.... This is where you take a piece of foil (either aluminum food wrap on card stock for thickness or a foil BBQ tray) and you put them through the Big Shot with an embossing folder.... (It reminds me a little of the Old Queenslander homes that used to have the Pressed tin walls and roof... So beautiful..... )

I liked that idea but I wanted a little colour in it...  So I invented a way to have our Stampin' Up! water colour inks and an isocol alcohol mix stay on the panels... You will see the process and results below in this pictured tutorial...  Enjoy.. xxoo

1. Take your card stock and a length of aluminum foil

2. Wrap the foil around the card stock

3. Tape it on back

 4. Place foil covered card stock in your desired embossing folder and run through your Big Shot.

 

5. Cover the embossed foil/card with PVA glue

  6. Allow glue to totally dry

7. Mix some Isocol rubbing alcohol with some re-inkers in a spritz bottle...

8. Change colours

 9. Add more

10. Allow to dry

Finally here is the finished product.. It's not a very good photo.. but the real thing looks quite good...

Have fun foiling it up!!!
