Tantalizing Techniques @ StampAntonio

Dear Scrappers,
My second post review some great classes at StampAntonio: www.stampantonio.com
I made this card following Carolyn Cowling's intruction. The technique was faux glass staining using scoring and some Tim Holtz inks...
Cool, isn't it?
Next class is on November 20 from 1-3 pm...
I love this store and would be very sad to loose it: remember to stop by on November 30 to celebrate small businesses. ..
Have a nice week,
Vicky

Feliz Dia de los Muertos

Dear scrappers,
I recently took a great class at Stamp Antonio Arts taught by Caroline Cowling: Tag-a-licious Tuesday. This class is a wonderful way to get acquainted with many paper crafting techniques: http://www.stampantonio.com/Classdescriptions.html
During last class, we got to make a Dia de Los Muertos explosion box:














This class and this paper crafting store are worth your visit, let's support our local economy and head there for our crafting needs. You won't regret it :-)

I loved this opportunity to explain my kids, this interesting Mexican tradition...
Post your comments please...

St. Lucy's Costume

Dear Scrappers
A quick post to showcase the candles crown and bread plate that I did for daughter's St. Lucy costume.
I used my cricut and my gypsy to cut both...
Cute, isn't it?
Happy All Saints Day!!!

Halloween Artbooking Minialbum

Dear Scrappers,
Today I am teaching a Minialbum class using pages cut with the new Artbooking cartridge from CTMH.
I promised my students to showcase here each page:
I used the Spellbound paper collection from CTMH, stickers from Recollection, Stickles in black, orange, and silver colors, some Recollection glitter papers, some border die cuts from K Company, some ribbons and baker twine...
I hope you enjoy it and post your comends...

Forest Hill Library Display

Dear scrappers,
I feel so honored to have my work displayed at the Forest Hill Library close to the Ingram Mall in San Antonio :-)
I try to display some of my former classes and some classes that I took as well.
I displayed different album types (CTMH digital, paper bound, mini albums, and acrylic) and home decor...
Come by and see my display in honor of the Scrapbooking Month and the San Antonio Scrapbooking Meetup Group...
Have a wonderful week
Vicky

WOTG Club projects

Dear Scrappers,

I finally created a club for my scrapbooking friends. We met for the first time last Thursday and these were the samples I made using the Huntington WOTG from CTMH. I offered 3 versions of club kits:
- paper pack and Stickease for the beginners






- the WOTG kit without the stamp set
- and the WOTG with the stamp set for the avid scrapboookers, who wished to build their stamp collection





I love how this color palette went perfectly with my DC, Charlottesville and Richmond trip pictures. We had there the perfect fall break vacation 2 years ago and I was trying to find the best paper to go with those pictures.



I will offer the club again for the first week of December using the Holliday wish List from CTMH and the Christmas WOTG.
I will use these layouts for the Scrapbooking month display at the Forest Hill Library :-)
I hope to show you these samples soon,
Have very blessed week
Vicky

Halloween Shadow Box

Dear Scrapper,
I haven't post anything in a while.  Finally, here is a sneak peek to my next class.
I used some recollection glitter and metallic papers, some felt stickers for the fence, tree, and bird, some 3d elements from Michaels, and a shadow box also from Michaels.
I hope you enjoy it. I am already sold out for this class :-))
Happy scrapping to all
