TUESDAY, MARCH 26 MEETING

Wendy Kool will be presenting two projects. ___________________________________________________________________________________________

Materials for class of Tuesday, March 26th - 6:30 PM - Seabreeze

 

1. Main Card: This class will be highlighting simple and elegant all occasion cards, using embossing folders in various ways. It also incorporates the use of clear, self adhesive laminate (Mac-tac).

Base card/envelope will be provided as well as the kit required for the main card.

For the main card you will need: Pop dots, glue, tape runner for assembling layers, scissors.

 

2. For the second part of the class there will be a variety of newly released embossing folders available for use, along with a demo of a triple layered embossing technique, also producing a simple and elegant all purpose card.

Bring along a camera if you wish as there will be many sample cards.

 

For the triple layered card, bring the following pieces of White or Cream card stock and you will be able to use one of the new folders to prepare the top for a future card:

1 @ 2.5 " x 4 "

1 @ 3.5 " x 5 "

1 @ 4.5 " x 6 "

(OR MULTIPLES OF THE ABOVE IF YOU WOULD LIKE TO MAKE MORE THAN ONE!) A repositional glue pen is handy for this one. One will be available if you do not have one.

3. Other opportunities: There will be a couple of cute, small stamps that you may wish to use; one being a small butterfly used on the main card project... I call it my all purpose "butterfly kiss" used often for finishing off simple cards. If you would like to make a supply of these bring some watercolor paper squares 3" x 3" for stamping. I will demo my coloring style using watercolor pencils and iridescent medium.

4. If you would like to stamp images (that will be available) on cardstock and run through the various embossing folders (as will be shown on the sample card), bring along a supply of cardstock (light colors) cut to 5" X 7" and can be trimmed later to your preferred card size.

 

nb. - for anyone who cannot attend this class... I will bring the samples to the April 9th class as well.

 

ITEMS DISCUSSED AT THE LAST MEETING:

Our 28 passenger Lamers bus (for Stampfest in Orlando) will be $624.00. The contract has been signed and a deposit of $100 has been made.

It was decided that we would not subsidize, from the treasury, the individuals from the club that are going to Stampfest. We will have $300 to spend (for the club) on single stamps and punches.

As of 3/12 we had $720.53 in our Treasury.

There will be a nominating committee selected for a new slate of officers to be in place 1/1/14. We ask that new faces step forward and give others, that have been serving, a chance to recharge. All organizations benefit from the participation of all its members.

 See you Tuesday.
