Technique Tuesday!!!

Welcome to Technique Tuesday!!  

Today I am featuring the Faux Linen Technique that I demonstrated at my Technique University class last night.  This makes a wonderful background for shabby chic cards....

 

TECHNIQUE INSTRUCTIONS:  ~ Stamp a background on glossy white cardstock  ~ Sand the cardstock in a vertical direction  ~ Sand the cardstock horizontally  ~ Keep sanding in each direction until all the gloss is gone  ~ Sponge the cardstock with ink (the darker the ink, the more obvious the sanded lines will be)  ~ Stamp additional images on your background if desired  ~ Sand the cardstock again in both directions to lighten the sponged color and get the Faux Linen appearance

THANKS and as always...

Happy Stampin' & Scrappin'!

Stampin' Sunday!!!

Welcome to Stampin' Sunday!!  

Today I am featuring a card that we will be making tomorrow evening at my Technique University class...it's another example of the Side Dresser Fold using the Faux Linen technique!  I'm loving this card fold...looks so hard, but it really is easy!!  

Feeling kind of restless today...no Redskin football game! We play tomorrow evening....against the dreaded Cowboys!  Monday night football...I guess I will have to DVR it so I can watch it after class!

Contact me for more information!

THANKS and as always...

Happy Stampin' & Scrappin'!
