Tuesday with Wendy, Feb 28

3/4/2017

This week's Tuesday with Wendy class was SO FUN and every single card came out more unique than the next!!

Wendy decided to try a new technique this week... and some of the students were a little apprehensive at first... but as the class started and everyone got creative the works of art CAME TO LIFE!!

The process starts by using sprays, stamps, watercolors, and color bursts to create a background and using stencils to create the patterns!!

This technique is one of Wendy's favorites (she's taught classes in the past) and is called creating a Motherboard.

Below, this student stamped images from Fred Mullet and Stampotique and then went in later with the Canson watercolor set and stencils by Tim Holtz

I LOVED watching this process!! Each work of art was completely different... and they all turned out so beautiful!!!

After students created the large piece of artwork... they cut it up!! (After it dried of course! They used heat guns to speed up the process)

They used strips of the art they created and made a variety of geometric shapes to make some cards....

And with others they used the artwork as a background!!

Wendy taught the class how to do stencil paste embossing...

She also used the die cut shape, Celebrate, by Elizabeth Craft... I love this font so much!!

These gals were SO CREATIVE!!

I loved how they mixed and matched the techniques.... Every group of cards was different!!

These were the ones we kept for the store... but really, you should stop by to see these in person! Pictures just don't do these justice.. they are way more stunning in person!
