So a couple of weeks ago I went to my first Stampin Up workshop. I met a lot of really nice people at the workshop and I learned several new techniques. My host was gracious and well spoken. Here are some images of the easel card we made.
This is the inside of the card. You can’t really tell from this photo, but we stamped the image on the outside of the card twice. Once for the outside, and once again on the inside without re-inking. This gave a kind of shabby faded look to it.
This is the card folded up. I stamped it a little crooked, but I kind of like that it isn’t perfect anyway. Life isn’t perfect right! The friends stamp was achieved by putting drops of different colors of ink on a baby wipe. It came out really neat I thought. I wish I could take credit for this, but it was our host who taught us this new technique.
Here is the card sitting inside the border punch which makes it sit up and therefore, it is an easel card! I loved making this card and so enjoyed my time at that workshop. I hope to be able to attend each meeting. Thanks for stopping by my blog today!
