Mists and Stencil Fern Card

Well I'm back from a packed weekend at the Collins trade show. We got in late last night and bed beckoned me so no posts from the show until I unpack. On Saturday will be the stencil class of things to do with stencils beyond dry embossing. This card is one we do involving mists. Will start prepping today. This is my most labor intensive class. Seeing the faces of those who want to learn these techniques once class is done does make it worth the effort. Hope you have a sunny start to your week.

Give thanks Card #5

Back to our theme stamp for the month. Went for a more modern simple look on this card. What is hard to see is that on the white paper I spritzed it with a little bit of Gold Glimmer Mist. It gives it a mottled gold sheen. I ran an orange glaze pen over the wheat and once again, it looks better in person. But, at least this time you can actually see the orange color better.

Stencil Mist Card

Had a great time with the folks in the stencil class yesterday. Besides using paste with stencils, we also used mists. That's why I wanted to post this card today so folks could see another card using mists. If I remember right, this card was done with Glimmer Mists which has not only color, but a metallic gleam to them which is hard to see here. Once dry, I stamped the words(Penny Black)on a piece of vellum and added a paper clip.

Enjoying the moment

Here's a good way to use up some extra left over printed paper-make a card with the pieces. The paper was then pierced along the edges. The flower was spritzed with some gold tone Glimmer Mist and attached with a decorative brad. The words are from a stamp by Verses.
