Hi there,
Have you heard of this class? This is on the online card classes website and it's fantastic (as were the previous classes...)
If you haven't signed up already, go go go, you'll have a lifetime acces to the class!
Learning thoses techniques and info from Tim Holtz is awesome. As I live in Belgium, I don't have the possibility to have a live class with him, but this online class is really amazing!
Well, as usual, I'm a little behind with my homeworks, but here's day 1 homework.
I did fine, but was unable to find out if Stazon is dye or pigment, nor if brilliance was water or oil based... anyone can help on that?
I already make two of the three tags for day 2, I'll try to post them later today. As I'm off work, I hope I can finish the third one and make those of day 3 as well.
Thanks for reading this
Hugs

Hi there,
Two weeks ago, my cousins had a cute baby boy. I wantd to make a card to welcome him! When I saw this stamp at Lili of the valley, I knew it was the one.
For a change, I wanted a CAS feel, but I wasn't sure if I could achieve that with this kind of stamp...
I kept a lot of white space, and add a piece of blue color core cardstock. I embossed it with a dot embossing folder and sand it to reveal the blue coe. I think the texture add a bit of interest to the card.
The sentiment is the one which comes with the stamp and is white embossed on a blue cardstock.
The little bear is colored with my copic markers.
Let me know what you think and don't forget to leave a message in the post below to enter y blog candy.

Hi again,
I always wanted to try the clean and simple style, but was a bit afraid that my cards would look empty. But Jennifer McGuire and Kristina Werner teamed up with Julie Ebersole to give us a new class at Online Card Classes, so it was the perfect opportunity for me to learn with those amazing ladies!
I already took two classes with them and it was so intersting that when I saw they were making a CAS class, I signed up right away... The classes are really great, with PDFs and videos that you can download, a forum where they answer all your questions and also a lifetime access, so even if you don't have the time now, you can go later!
Today is the first day and I made this card following Kristina's tutorial.
I used Hero Arts note card in Light blue, and I stamped the Hero Arts Flower Dot Background with soft stone shadow ink. I used a sentiment I had in my stash (don't remeber where I got it) and I heat embossed it.
So what do you think?
Good morning,
Long time no see, but I have a good excuse ;-)
I was pregnant and I had to stay in the couch most of the time, so no craft for a long time :-( but it worth it, I now have the most beautiful baby in the world by my side ^^
I'll do a blog candy to celebrate that, I'll post about it later this week.
Anyway, I did make a card for my cousin's birthday.
I used this sweet Tilda for the first time, even though she's in my stash for quite a while now... so many uninked stamps are waiting for me...
I also tried to color with Prisma pencils. I never used this technique before and there's sill a lot to learn, but it's not as difficult as I thought.
I made a pocket card using Gio's tutorial at WoJ nspiration blog.
I'm entering some challenges :

Hi there,
Today I want to show you a canvas I made during a class taugh by Anna.
This is a shabby vintage style. I'm not used to do that kind of thing, because I always think I won't be able to make something so beautiful. In the end, it wasn't so difficult and I really like it ^^
It's a lot more shinny and has a lot of glitter in real life...
I'm entering this week's Simon Says Stamp and Show challenge which is Anything goes.
Thanks for stopping by,

Good morning everyone,
For today’s card, I used the color combo of the fourth week of the Summer Card Camp.
These colors make me think of summer (even though the weather is awful here) and so I took a digi I bought a while ago from The greeting farm which is called Summer Fairy.
I used the sketch from sketch Saturday and I’m also entering the Stampin’ for the weekend challenge which is Wings and Things.
Thanks for stopping by today,
Please leave me a comment so I can go and see your work too,

Good morning everyone,
Finally I’m back !!!
Well, I hope so, this first semester has been so ectic…
Anyway, this is the third week of the summer card camp and I finally find the time to make a card!
I’m enjoying the camp so far, lots of great techniques and so many inspirational cards!
For today’s card, I took my inspiration from this one.
I'm also entering my card in this week's Simon Says Stamp Challenge which is 'Anything goes'
This is quite different from what I’m used to do, but I'm quite pleased with the result. I think I may do more of them as it is so much quicker ^^
Thanks for stopping by today,
