Tuesday, November 27th Meeting

Our next meeting is Tuesday night at 6:30 PM at Seabreeze Rec Center.


Ginny will be doing shaving cream backgrounds for cards. She will also be doing decorative candles.

Items you will need to bring are:

They need a plain pillar candle, any size and they need to bring ranger alcohol inks (refills bottles). Two to three colors to drip down the candle. Bring a piece of foil to sit the candle on. They dry fast. Yes I did test them and lit mine and it didn't catch fire. Bring a paper bag to put it in. A freshly painted one might adhere to plastic bags.

For the shaving cream project you will need to bring glossy paper. 8 1/2 x 11 cut in half and bring both pieces. Also bring some paper towels. She will have everything else.

You can see the green strip of cardstock (#2) and the pattern paper strip (#3). 

I used a flower as an embellishment on the outisde.

At Tuesday's meeting we will be making, what I call, box cards.  It is all in the folding, they are simple to create and can be used for any occassion.  I have posted photos.  You will need to bring the following items.

1.  81/2 x 11 pattern paper for card
2.  2 strips of card stock  (to match the card, the Christmas card above I used green cardstock) 1 1/4 inch x 4 1/4 inch (it is best to wait until the card is made to cut this in case it needs to be adjusted. 
3.  2 strips of pattern paper 1 1/8 inch x 4 1/8 inch, the paper can either match the card base or contrast with the card base
4.  4 1/4 x 4/14 square of white cardstock for inside of card.

6.  adhesive
7.  sentiment stamp for inside
8.  ink pad for sentiment stamp
