September Workshop

By
I will be doing three workshops this month the first being this Thursday night (1st). My theme is swing cards and this is one I have made as example to show on the night - take a look
This is the front - it's a base of Really Rust (retired) with some Very Vanilla layered on top. This has then been stamped with all of the stamps from the French Foliage set. The leaves in the middle have been layered on using 3D foam pads as have the leaves down the side. Here is a view of it when it is opened
The plain panel is for writing your birthday greetings. The inks I have used are Stampin' Up - Really Rust, Pumpkin Pie and More Mustard. I also used a couple of Memento ink pads in Rich Cocoa and Desert Sand.
More examples and some instructions will be available after the workshop on Thursday.
Thanks for stopping by today and leaving your lovely comments, bye for now - Jacqueline xx

    Love the colours on this card and what a good idea to have somewhere to write a message as often this style of card leaves you nowhere to write.

    This is gorgeous Jacqueline and very appropriate for the weather as well - I think we can say goodbye to what was laughingly described as summer! I love these colours and the way you left a panel for the message. Every time I see a card you've made with this set I want to get mine out - you are an inspiration! Vx

Yikes - I'm a bit late posting today, but when I got into my studio this morning I had forgotten that it looked like this I had a big family lunch yesterday and 'cos our house is so small, I have to keep stuff moving from room to room in order for there to be enough space. So I got to work straight away and now my desk looks like this There is a hidiously green magnetic board complete with snail magnets that I won in a raffle - just right for altering, some wooden drawer knobs onto which I will attach some foam to use with my disress inks and my chipboard albums from last week that I didn't get round to doing. Also found when clearing from one room to another was my old jewelery display board which will soon be converted to a card display board and an old set of corner shelves. All they needed was a quick flick of a J-Cloth and a spray of Flash (oops advertising - other cleaning products are avaliable) and they now stand proudly in my craft room displaying my most recent cr...

For one reason or another I haven't played this game for a few weeks - you know the one over on  Julia's blog  - go and see if you don't know what I'm on about. I have missed playing along as I love all the lovely comments left by fellow crafters and so I have purposely made time to join in this week. My work space is quite long and this week I have managed to use up all available surfaces .........with mess! starting at the left hand end  This is the devestation left from yestersday's Project Tuesday challenge and some atc making. Moving on This is where I usualy do all my 'messy' crafting hence all the Distress Inks and paints. However at the moment there is a rather large pile of paper work in the way (meeting minutes and accounts etc) - this really needs to be tackled asap - however still moving on This is the other end where I am piling up all the bits and pieces for my workshop tomorrow night - we are doing medallion cards - so much to do so l...
