Intro to Stamping
Wed, July 13th 7:15-9:15
Not only will you get an introduction to stamping in this class, you will actually make some cards! Have you always wanted to make your own handmade cards, but didn’t know what you needed to get started? Are you new to stamping, and just don’t know what all those products are for? Join Cheiron to explore the world of stamping. In this class we will go over the basic tools you need to get started. After that, we will jump right into stamping…and create a few simple, beautiful cards. Be sure to bring your questions! Handouts will be provided. Please bring an adhesive runner, foam tape/dots, and detail scissors to class. All other materials will be provided.

We will make 5 cards featuring some great inking and paper techniques to create stylish cards for all occasions including: resist stamping, marker stamping, embossing, letterpress, layered stamping, making embellishments with canvas, window cards and more. We will be learning lots of new techniques in the class, but the cards will remain clean and simple. You MUST bring detail scissors, foam tape/dots and an adhesive runner to class.

Have you tried all the fabulous dies available at The Ink Pad yet? Join Cheiron as she shows you how to use some of her favorite dies from Tim Holtz, My Favorite Things, and Memory Box. They all work in the machines a little differently, but all produce beautiful results! You will get some practice cutting shapes with paper, felt, and even cork (and dressing them up). These fun shapes will be added to your card projects for the evening. All cutting in this class will be done on the Sizzix Big Shot, but all of these dies are compatable with most die cut machines. You MUST bring detail scissors, foam tape/dots and an adhesive runner to class. All other materials will be provided.
