Not a long entry today as apart from attending a craft class and doing a bit of card making at home I haven’t done anything else of interest. I walked both ways to the class at Freeport, it is good for me but as there are no buses there on a Sunday I didn’t hav much choice. That is not strictly true as Darren would have come and collected me if I had called him. The class today was to cover a box top, jam jar lid and small plaque with items, but not just flat, but to create depth and texture. The second session will be to paint everything white, some chose to do black, then you add a second colour to highlight the depth.So the finished items will look quite different. I painted some stamped images the other day and have also been using the die cut machine. I have combined some of the results to make some cards. The one with the reindeer is not positioned United tight and needs a sentiment across th bottom right hand corner. On the whole I am pleased with the effect though.
Part five of ‘Bodyguard ‘ tonight.
I quite like the decorated lids as they are, and can’t imagine what they’ll be like when finished. I’m quite intrigued and will look forward to seeing the final results. The cards look good too. How many more do you have to make in time for Christmas? I know you have a very long Christmas card list :-)
ReplyDeleteSoon be time for Bodyguard....yayyy.
This was the second time she had run this particular class and some of the ladies have said ‘do I have to paint them?’ I usually send forty plus cards, better get cracking!
