You don't have to have taken last month's class in order to do this scene or have the stamps so come join the fun. The supplies you will need are; color box stylus and foam tips, you should might want to have a tip for each color family so you don't have to clean them out each time.Example; one for greens ,blues,browns, etc. Caulk applicators or cosmetic foam applicators,Dye inks, any brand as long as they're dye based. Example; Adirondack, distressed, stampin up, Marvy. I used Adirondack; cloudy blue, sailboat blue, denim, latte, pesto, lettuce, meadow, pool stream and aqua. Marvy salvia blue. They are blues, greens, browns and aquas. There will be ink pads available at the store for you to use.

May coloring Class

Sorry I'm getting a late start this month. The stamp I was originally going to do didn't come in on time so i had to redirect. How about a father's Day card or a card for a son or special friend.

Items you will need for class are; word or phrase stamp, brown ink pad, Stampin up ticket punch, pop dots, score tape 1/8", scissors, paper trimmer and your regular supplies.

Prisma colored pencil colors: PC1091 Green Ochre, PC948 Sepia, PC1005 Limepeel.

June Card club

Are you ready to stamp??!! Are you ready to mask??!! Are you ready to sponge??!! I hope so, because that's what we're going to do this month! This is the first card in a series on Masking Techniques. This is a more "masculine" card, which you all know is a stretch for me, due to my affinity for ribbon and butterflies. So, I was very happy that neither found their way onto the card!

Anyway......here's the supplies to bring (if you have them) besides your basic kit:

Treeline silhouette stamp

Phrase stamp

Pale yellow dye ink

Pale pink dye ink

Pale blue dye ink (Memento Summer Sky)

Deep blue dye ink (Distress Broken China)

Black dye ink

Pale green dye ink (Stampin' Up Certainly Celery)

Dark green dye ink (Distress Peeled Paint)

Sponges (sponge daubers preferably)
