Something Saturday - Triple Ripped Card

Image
Hi there Creators I saw a quick link thingo of a card on Facebook, and sort of noted what she did - which was really cool, so set about having a go and I have no idea if it's the same as I can't remember what it was called or who had done it, but it worked out well anyway, and now I get to share it with you🤣 So here we are...... You might recognise this one as it's one in my "card conglomerate" of Mega Class cards for 19th July (if you're keen to come to the Mega class or get it as a mail order class, you've got till 2nd July to book your spot) check out the blog post on the class here: July Mega Class Then in the video I made up the "bones" of this card, which I've then stamped up using the Inspiring Imperfections bundle (great stamp set & dies) For the base I've used the Misty Moonlight two-tone cardstock, it's kind of cool as it has the same colour on both sides, just one light and one darker.  I've cut this to 9" x ...

On to the photos then a description for you.....       The technique is called Popping Pastels, as you can see it creates a beautiful light delicate image. You'll need Versamark (and versamark refill if your pad is a bit dry - best if it's a bit juicy), Pastels , and cotton wool balls (and obviously a stamp set🤣) What you do is ink up your stamp with versamark, stamp it (you won't be able to see it) Then puff pastels onto it - I scribble my pastels onto a scrap bit of paper first to get "dust", and pick up the dust from that.  As you puf...

February Class Cards

 Hi there Creators, Feels like ages since I've done a regular class!  however not quite back to normal yet, February's class is on Wednesday 9th Feb 10.30am or 7pm, it'll be a $20 class for the 4 cards, with written instructions and envelopes.  Then March we'll get back to the first Wednesday of the month. So I'm guessing you want to see the cards? First up, you'll get to pick which card you make but essentially it uses the same stamp sets (Amazing Silhouettes and In the Moment) and the Soft Pastels Assortment.  Check out what I used here:  What Heather used Then this next card I've used the gorgeous Very Versailles, such a pretty stamp set!  Check out the products I used here:  What Heather Used Third Card uses this lovely spread of flowers from Blessings of Home Stamp set.  Check out the products I used for this card here:  What Heather Used And lastly I've used the Gentle Waves Stamp set, to create (what I think looks waterfall-like) howe...
