August Technique Class - Stamp & Trace

What a fun class this was!  The technique was Stamp & Trace and was so easy but it made our cards so pretty!!  We learnt that all you need is a stamp set, some ink and gel pens for this technique.



Stamp & Trace

Stamp your image, then use a gel pen to enhance the image.  By adding highlights, the image will pop making for a beautiful card.

Here is the first card:



Card 1 – Garden in Bloom
Stamp Sets:  Garden in Bloom, Teeny Tiny Wishes
Ink:  Pacific point/Marina Mist, Tangerine Tango/Watermelon Wonder, Daffodil Delight, Mossy Meadow/Pea Pizzazz, Black
Paper:  Maurina Mist Base 8 ½ x 5 ½, Cajun Craze Layer 4 x 5 ½ , Whisper White 3 ¾  x 5, Cajun Craze Scraps/White Scraps
Accessories:  White Satin Ribbon, Banner punch, Glue Dots, Dimensions, White Gel pen

Randomly stamp the flowers on your Whisper White cardstock, using the coordinating inks for the flowers (Pacific Pt/Marina Mist)(Tangerine/Watermelon) and Mossy Meadow/Pear Pizzazz for the leaves. Adhere to the Cajun Craze Layer, add the ribbon and tie a cheaters knot.  Add highlights to the flowers using a white gel pen.

This class is still available as a kit, just send me an email if you are interested.  You are NOT going to want to miss the September Technique Class that will be coming up.  The technique is Northern Lights, I thought that this technique will be just perfect with the fall weather that will be coming (I hope) in September.  Stay tuned for the class invitation, but remember if you don't live in my area, this class is also available as a kit in a class to go!!

Coming up is our August Kit Class, for August we will be making the Stampin' Up! Perpetual Calendar, I can't wait!!

Thanks for stopping by, take care.
