This last week for Demo, we had to have a *quick* last minute change due to someone feeling under the weather... so it was Wendy's turn to come up with an idea on the fly!!
Check out these ideas!!
Check out these ideas!!
I love what Wendy creates when she is in her Element!!!
So this first idea is really clever... Wendy wanted to create a fun art piece. She started with the 140 lb. Cold Press Watercolor Paper

Wendy took a large kitchen platter and traced a circle onto her piece of watercolor paper.
THEN Wendy went online and found a public domain image of a Raven and printed it off A FEW TIMES.
Wendy cut out the Raven first...

- I love this idea using the ORIGINAL SHAPES as her stencils so she new how to create the bird shape!
- When you cut out the RAVEN ONLY you end up with a basic stencil! (for a sturdier stencil, you can print your image onto card stock). Wendy TRACED THE RAVEN so she got the basic bird shape in the middle of her circle.
- Next, Wendy cut out a wing of the Raven, laid it down in the middle of her Raven tracing, and traced the wing
- Then, Wendy cut out the other wing shapes, laid them down, and traced them. She did the same with the beak.
- Wendy ended up with a line drawing of the bird shape... THEN she filled the shape with doodles!!!
- Wendy used one of her FAVORITE doodle pens, the Black Glaze Pen
I love how she created her own branch and filled the space with some "woodgrain" shapes and then filled the other negative spaces with small dots, geometric shapes, swirls, and MORE!!
Just look at the detail!! What a FUN concept!!
The other idea that Wendy had was making an Interactive Card in a NEW WAY
Wendy started out by stamping her Stampscapes Pine Tree Stamp along the bottom edge of her card. She created the background using her Picket Fence Blending Brushes and circle for masking off the moon. Wendy likes to use Distress Inks for creating this effect because the colors blend BEAUTIFULLY together.

To glaze the image, Wendy used Versamark Ink and Detail Clear embossing powder.
Wendy taught the "glazing" technique from a past Tuesday with Wendy class and you can find the step-by-step up tutorial in this previous blog post: https://www.stampadoodle.com/stampadoodle-blog/tuesday-with-wendy-may-21st

Wendy created a gate-fold card and placed the glazed piece at the TOP of the card so that when you lift up the flap you see a gate fold hidden underneath!!
I love how Wendy used these Tree Line die-cuts from Memory Box and CUT THEM IN HALF so that half of the tree lines are on the left gate fold and half of them are on the right gate fold.
She arranged the layers so that the trees on the RIGHT overlap the trees on the left.

On the inside of the card she placed this Oval Tree Frame that I love SO MUCH!! Perfect place for writing a sentiment!!
What a fun card idea!! (And a great card for men! Hunting, camping, fishing.. the themes are endless!!)
