Sakura Workshop with Michelle Johnson ~ Saturday 2nd April

 Saturday was a success! What a relief.  Right up until the middle of the week we had not filled the workshops and I had decided to ask the ladies who were coming along to the afternoon workshop if they could come in the morning.  This was not a problem and gave Michelle 5 people.  By the end of the week this was a different matter.  We had a few last minute people decide they would like to come along which gave Michelle 9 to teach.  Although we had a couple too many we still had plenty of room for them to complete their projects and enjoy their morning with us.  Every one enjoyed themselves and had not realised all the different ways on how you could use the Sakura Pens.  The enthausiam was great and they are looking forward to the next workshop with Michelle which I will let you know about at a later date.

 Avril ~ I can feel the concentration

 

The above technique is using a water brush and a Silver Shadow Sakura Pen.

Place the pen onto the card with the water brush ontop and move along the page

moving the pen and the brush at the same time. 

This will give you a lovely marble effect.

when the card is dry you can really notice the silver from the pen.

A great background for stamping your flowers onto or using with your peel-off's.

Kayleigh's Birthday Party ~ Sunday 27th March

Kayleigh's 10th birthday party with her friends.

Kayleigh and her friends had a wonderfull time making a frame to house their favourite photograph.  We had pre-cut the mounts for them so they could decorate them using patterned paper and a choice of stamped images for them to colour in to decorate the sides of their frame.  All of them were completely different and beautifully coloured and put together.  They all went away very proud of what they made. Hope you had a great birthday Kayleigh!

Rubber Stamping Club

Friday evening rubber stamping club went well. Full of inpsiration along with lots of giggles.  They made some lovely cards using our new cross template and fantasy fibre.

I am sure you will agree Janet looks really pleased with her finished card.

 Before using the cross the ladies had fun using Fantasy Fibre & film using stamps made by Creative Expressions called 'U Mount' CUTE.

£ 10.80

They all had a go stamping these images with the film or the fibre. The photo below is using the fibre.

To make the above all you need to do is firstly purchase yourself some fantasy fibre.  You will also require an acrylic block and the stamps as shown above.

• Stick the rubber stamp down onto the acrylic block with repositional spay.
• Take a small amount of fibre and place over the stamp.  Making sure there are no gaps or is too thick. 
• Gently take off the stamp.
• Ink you stamp using a permanent ink or stazon.
• Place the fibre over the stamp again.
• Place baking paper or parchment over the top.
• Using an iron, an encaustic iron or travel iron would be ideal on a medium to high setting, iron over the top of the parchment making sure you go round all the edges.
• Remove the parchment and the fibre and hopefully your image will look like the above.

The film is used the same way.

Have fun! Jeanette
