December Class Projects

Good Morning
Just a short post to show you what we made at our last classes for 2017.
The first was a desk-top calendar using the Colourful Seasons stamp set and matching Seasonal Layers Thinlits (a lovely set well worth having!).  Each side of the calendar (it has four sides) depicts a different season.

For Spring we used Berry Burst ink with an Aquapainter to 'wash' over some Powder Pink cardstock for the background and then some Whsiper White to cut out some flowers to give a shaded colour effect.  The side pieces were taken from the Color Theory DSP Stack.  The year and season and punch were made using retired products.

For Summer we used a piece of So Saffron at the main backing then layered torn strips of Pacific Point, Marina Mist and Sahara Sand to create the beach/sea.  The 'sun' was just a dauber with Daffodil Delight ink rubbed into a circle.

For Autumn we used a piece of Soft Suede for the main backing and the using the 'babywipe' technique created the leaves using Cherry Cobbler, Pear Pizzazz and So Saffron inks with the leaf stamp from the Colourful Seasons stamp set.

For Winter we used Soft Sky ink with an Aquapainter to 'wash' over some Soft Sky cardstock for the background and then some Whisper White to cut out some Snowflakes from the Seasonal Layers Thinlits using the  to give a shaded colour effect. 

Here is a photo of the calendar when in use.

The other project we made at this class was a set of gift cards and decorated Pizza Box using the Painted Harvest stamp set. The colours used were Pumpkin Pie, Daffodil Delight, Soft Suede and Pear Pizzazz.
