Day 3 of Online Card Classes -Stenciled class.

So today our classes were all about Texture and dimension pastes and I did one card but it covered two different things under additions. I wish you could see how shiny and purdy it is IRL! Anyhoo...that concludes my work done for my classes from Online Card Classes-Stenciled class. Thanks for stopping in for a peek if you did!! :D

I did a couple of cards, card 1 was one of techniques Kristina Werner taught called stamping and stencils The second was also one that Kristina taught called tracing I will make one more post today for Day 3 of the class...today's class in a moment!

Online Card Classes-Stenciled Day 1

So I have been so excited to be joining Jennifer McGuire and Kristina Werner over at Online Card Classes for another one of their fabulous classes with their talented guest artist/teachers. If you have never taken a class of theirs let me just say you CAN NOT go wrong with one of their classes! They are always excellent! Okay so down to business...Day one taught us several inking and misting techniques.This one was under the heading- sponging Then there was heat embossing Next I did layering and masking Because of Inlinz and how it works I am going to do two more posts for each of the other days worth of classes! LOVED this class! Always Love the Online card classes, which are WAY more than JUST cards.

A Vintagey Valentine

I am taking May Flaum's class and although I didn't have all the dies and stuff used I was inspired by Wanda Guess's card taught in class. This is my quick little version of the card

Tim's 12 tags of 2013- December.

So I have a cold that was given to me at Christmas even though I said I did NOT want said cold! But I have done every month of Tim's tags and I wasn't going to let a cold keep me from rounding out my year of Tim tags!! If you want to play along you still have a couple days...you can head over to Tim's blog to see his tutorial for his December tag of 2013 Okay, so I didn't have the poinsettia, or the holly or the stamp. STILL I was going to try to make it work for me! I used the tattered leaves and glue gunned them into a poinsettia the best I could. after I was all done it felt a little bare without ? the little cedar sprigs? so I went all Tim retro and threw on the Fabulous flourish stamp that was made popular the year he used it on every tag. (good memories!) The camera really doesn't pick up how pretty the frosted film is IRL if you haven't played with it you should! A Big huge thank you to Tim for a spectacular year of tags and 12 months of fun!! :D

LOL Skate card! (well mines a tag so far)

So I just caught Tim's post about ?? maybe an hour ago or so?? and he did a skate tag that he turned into a card. Very cool piece. I had started this tag, just doing bits and pieces of it, I had the skate complete and the Background but something was missing so I left it. When I saw Tim's I thought okay...and I added the greenery and the Christmas word band. Oh if I had had that pine cone die...it SO would have been on there! Thanks Tim! you posted just at the PERFECT TIME!! Sorry about the picture, it's night and I don't have great lighting :D
