Stencil Magic   $24

Monday 7-9pm and Thursday 9.30-11.30am

We are going to have some fun using texture paste and stencils to create a wonderful background to our pages!  If you haven’t used texture paste before, it is so much fun! You will need 3 photos for this single layout, 2 landscape photos @ 2x3” and 1 landscape photo @ 2x3 that you can silhouette (cut out the person or object from the photo).  You will also need your basic tool kit, heat gun (if you have one), white paint or gesso, paint brush, edge distresser, inks and a title.   **If you have a 12” stencil in a design you love, then bring that along so there will be less waiting during class :-)

Do you ever have moments of uncontrollable laughter over the silliest things, when you're all alone??  I was just spell checking this post gesso became Gestapo, Daniel's became Denial's....giggle, giggle, giggle!!!!! Gavin has walked into the room wondering what an earth I was up too - and I was laughing and wheezing so much I couldn't say!  LOL!!!  Back to work!

Next Week's is also...

Art Journal Workshop   $14

Friday 12.30-2.30pm and 7-9pm

I have a lovely stamp set for you use and keep in this months art journal workshop.  You will need to gesso your page prior to class.  For your supplies you will need one colour of paint, about ½ sheet of patterned paper, a few sheets of your ripped out book paper or music paper, tripletac, heat tool, stazon ink, journal pen and an acrylic stamp block.  Our quote this month...

“Time is a companion that goes with us on the journey.  It reminds us to cherish each moment because it will never come again.  What we leave behind is not as important as how we have lived.” Captain Jean-Luc Picard

Have a wonderful weekend.

Happy Scrapping,

Mandy :-)
