Workshop samples

I had a workshop last Friday night. It was good to share some creativity with others that are interested in stamping and paper crafting. The hostess was really interested in the watercolor wonder crayons and exactly how they worked. I did about 3 cards and then had the guests make their own as a make 'n take. I was really pleased with how they turned out. And it was so exciting to be at a workshop where the hostess was totally excited about it.

Here are the samples: This is a cute little 3 x 3 inch card. I just had to use the drinks from the new hostess set. I'm all about coffee, lattes, cappuccinos, and hot chocolate. Besides, it's been dang cold here lately, so anything warm in my body is a good thing. :> The technique I used was very simple...straight from the crayon to the paper by using an aquapen, and then just "painted" it on.

This card below was watercolored...traditionally, you might say. I colored in and then used a blender pen to "blend" the colors. It would've been way prettier if I had actually used a blending of color rather than just one color per letter, ya know?

This was our make 'n take. (The other card I gave to my hostess and couldn't download the picture...oh well.) The technique is called "black magic". I stamped the image on black CS using the whisper white CRAFT pad, let it dry, and then colored over the white image with the crayons. It really makes the color pop out. I love it!

Here is a close up of the detail:

Hope you enjoyed the creations today, and thanks for stopping by.

TTFN,
