August 2011 Card Class

Can you believe it I'm early posting this week's card class projects!!!  We will be learning 3 different style of techniques: Direct to Paper, Misting with Markers and a Diamond Fold card.

The Direct to Paper technique is applying ink from an ink pad directly to paper.  We will be making 3 different cards using this technique, one plain and two using an embossing folder in two different applications.

Misting with Markers technique gives your image a water color look.  Using a variety of markers on a stamp then misting the stamp with water and applying it to water color paper or card stock.  We will be using regular card stock in our project.

The last card is a Diamond Fold card which is really pretty simple to make.  A few scores and some folds give you a unique shape card.

Below are photos of what we will be making on Saturday.
