Description
Welcome to the Poinsettia Card Class!
This is a perfect class to get a start on your Seasonal Christmas cards! Even if you don't do Christmas cards, the techniques taught in this class can easily be transferred to many other non-seasonal stamp images. The only requirement is that they are line stamps and not solid silhouette stamps.
This class (and each card) is broken down into manageable bits to make it easy to follow along.
I have taught many, many classes for the past 15 years at local scrapbook stores but this is the first time teaching how to work with and use resin. I'm very excited to share what I know and learn how to teach in this new format!
This class includes a PDF supply list so you can see everything that is used in one place. The supplies are separated by card and include a picture of the final card. The PDF has each item linked with where you can purchase these supplies online saving you a lot of time trying to source everything yourself. You can download the Supply list HERE.
In this course we will be covering:
1- The different heat guns used, when to use each one and why it is used for specific tasks.
2- How to stamp and emboss images and tips and tricks for embossing. What to do and what to avoid.
3- Basic water colour techniques for stamped images.
4- How to create a distressed looking background.
5- Creating an easy background with alcohol inks.
6- How to paint an image with alcohol inks.
7- How to assemble and embellish each card.
NOTE:
As with all handmade items it is nearly impossible to recreate them exactly so your cards will look similar but there WILL be differences! Those differences, in my opinion, are what makes handmade items unique and special!
Who this course is for:
- Beginner and Intermediate card makers
Instructor
I have loved art and being creative for as long as I can remember and have experience creating MANY different things! I have been teaching all sorts of classes at local scrapbook stores for the past 15 years. I'm looking forward to sharing these classes with you and learning how to teach in a different format!
