It was a busy day of stamping and creating, card making, a wee bit of scrapbooking, a quick and easy fridge magnet, a set of cards with a purse to match and a mini watercoloured book. The day started with a card swap and the cards were all wonderful. (A couple of people were teased and ‘encouraged’ to take part in the next swap!!) Lunch was late but stamping continued in the afternoon. It was a tiring, but FUN!! day.
Two techniques this month – “Blocked Shadow” and “Dauber Direct”.
The shadow is created with an acrylic block and daubers are used to apply different colors of ink directly to areas on the rubber stamp.
Just 8 cards this month for stamp camp, but not all of them were very simple. Used a variety of techniques – Blocked Shadow, Spotlighting, Blocking, Masking and Creative Use of Scraps (thanks Jane!).
Vellum cardstock and paper are such lovely papers, we needed a reminder as to how many ways they can be used. Everyone received a page of ‘Vellum Tips’ and made four cards each using vellum cardstock or paper in a different way. We embossed it, coloured on it using chalk pastels and markers, used it as a layer and attached it in different ways.
