July's technique class available online:

Hi everyone,

Yesterday I gave you the option to purchase my One Sheet Wonder class online.  This was held on Saturday morning and was great fun.

In the afternoon we used the same stamp set but did a Wet Wipe Technique Class.  Such good fun, who knew wet wipes were for more then cleaning babies bottoms!!!

Anyway here's the mock up shots of the class.  You can get the full kit including the stamp set in either clear or wood mount by giving me an email.

 Card 1 is an easel card the front is above and inside is below



Next was the gorgeous window pane effect card



and lastly the floating butterflies


All three are using wet wipes to create effects.

If you would like to be able to do this class in the comfort of your own home please email me:
  
craftybirdlisa@gmail.com  or call 07823 883769

and I will dispatch the kit to you.  The cost is £18.95* for the clear mount Kit and £22.95* for the wood mount kit.  It includes all card stock etc you need to be able to make these cards.

*There is p&p on all orders.

You will need to have the butterfly and Bird builder punch in your own stash.  Or you can order these at the same time.  You can either use the scallop circle punches to cut your flowers or fussy cut these.

You can combine both classes (yesterday's and todays) and make one payment and only pay one lot of postage.

I look forward to hearing for you and as always love getting your comments.  Its means so much.

Take care

Hello to all my lovely followers out there in blogland.  I hope that you are all well today.

Its a bit cooler here today, and we had some rain overnight ..... my tomatoes are really loving an extra dash of water - Its the first time I've grown tomatoes ......... the colour is somewhat inspiring me .... but more on that another day ........




So what did you do at the weekend ...................

It was the last Saturday of the month and that meant that my two classes ran on Saturday.  It was so hot, i'm surprised we didn't melt, but it was good fun.  

Anyway here are the six cards that were made during the One Sheet Wonder Class.  It is an A4 one sheet wonder and I got my inspiration from the lovely Mae.  Thank you Mae.

We used Blushing Bride, pear pizzaz and early espresso for our colours and the lovely Polka Dot Pieces stamp set.








In this class you get 4 sheets of A4 card stock and three co-ordinating sheets of A5 card stock.  If you want to join in the class you can order it via email :  craftybirdlisa@gmail.com and will I happily send the instructions and kit to you.  The cost for the Class is £10 plus (P&P)

This was the morning class.  Check back later in the week to see the afternoon class.  The two classes combine using the same stamp set.

Remember the beautiful boat reflection ..........

Morning everyone ..........

yes, thats right the boat reflection I did a couple of weeks ago, and I asked what would you like to see it turned into .....

Here's the link if you missed the post  Reflection technique

At that stage the image had been stamped and coloured and water coloured but was a flat piece of paper ...... there were so many lovely suggestions and I thank you all for taking the time to stop by and leave your comments.

Anyway are you ready ...............

From this 


To this Easel reflection card


I used the lovely polka dots embossing folder to emboss the top of my card before turning it into an easel.  I stamped the bottom layer with lost lagoon and the gorgeous Gorgeous Grunge stamp set.


I matted and layered and distressed (vintage style) the edges of Tangello Twist and Lost Lagoon card stock


And stamped and cut with the Banners Framelits the gorgeous Flag.  

It says ......... "now go change the world" and is part of one of the sayings from the Something to Say stamp set.

I hope you all love it.  I love that the reflection is not flat and has the three dimensional feel that it would in real life.

Anyway thanks again for taking the time to stop by and huge huge thank you's for all your comments and support.  

As always hugs,
