Crafting with Maria Simms

Spent the morning embossing card with stencils and then highlighting the embossing with brushing techniques with wax and inks.

Afternoon was spent playing with the Groovi plate - still does not float my boat now that I have tried it.

April 17th - Maria Simms Workshop

Here are my finished cards and wall hanging from the workshop that Maria ran.

First Project - Had to add a greeting of my choice when I returned home. 

 

Second Project - Played with grunge paste and gold leaf.

Made the topper and choice was ours to make a walling hanging or a card.

 

 

Project 3 - This was Maria's card (lilac) that she allowed people to take a picture of so they could finish their cards when they got home - mine in the orange one.

 

 

Project 4 - stamping and embossing in black and colouring in with spectrum noir pencils.  I don't have these pencils, however I have some metallic pencils so used  those instead.  Again, first card is hers, which we were allowed to take a picture of, so we had something to work towards when we got home.  Fortunately, I had the same stamp at home.
