Class - Stamping 101

New to stamping? Perhaps, you’d like a refresher? Then this class is for you! Attend this class and learn the very basics of stamping. You’ll learn all about the different types of ink, cardstock . . . even the anatomy of a stamp (and why that ink works better than this ink on that stamp). You’ll create four cards sure to make anyone smile. Just call The Making Place at 760-736-8605 to reserve your seat.





Hope to see you there!

A Very Barkley Thank You

Eeeep!  My sister surprised me with a new stamp set from Crafter's Companion. Of course, I just had to sit down and make a thank you card right away.

Isn't Barkley EVER so cute peeking through those flowers??  And doesn't that background paper work perfectly?  I love it when that happens. . . .I colored the image first and then chose the paper. I usually choose paper first.

What I used:

Everyday with Barkley clear stamp set by Crafter's Companion
Simple Sayings stamp set by Stamper's Anonymous
Tuxedo Black Memento Ink
Antique Linen Distress Ink
Copic Markers: C3, C5, C7, W1, Y02, Y06, YR00, YR02, YG63, YG67, BV00, BV02
X-Press It Cardstock
Patterned paper: Togetherness by Webster's Pages

So, I Added a New Page

Did you notice it?  There's a tab at the top for all classes . . . just thought it would make it easier for you to find that stuff if you're looking for it . . .and then I can post other stuff more frequently on the "main" page.

What do you think?  Is it easier?

Of course . . . I can't post here without a picture, so here's a sneak peek of an upcoming class . . .

Thanks for stopping by today!
