ATC and TEW Workshops

LESSON 7

The first 2 ATCs were done using a technique called Resin Fresco. Apply embossing ink randomly then sprinkle with embossing powder. Melt with heat gun but don't overheat because you don't want it to turn glass like. Brush with gesso. When dry, drybrush acrylic paint over card and then stamp or decorate.

TEWCh2Ls2

This technique in Texture Effects was created using dye inks, metallic inks, acrylic paints, fibers and stamps.

WORKSHOP

Chapter 2 Lesson 1
This card is made using the resist effect, masking off an area and continuing with the combination of colors. The clef was made from Mizuhiki cord. There is also a small piece of Mica on top of the clef. The embellishment on top was made using hot glue, small rubber stamp and then adding color once it was cooled.

ATC workshop is taking a break this week so will be adding that back again next week.

WORKSHOPS

Lesson#6

The first card was made using the emboss resist technique. The other 2 were done using paper scraps, glueing them down then applying embossing powder in the blank areas.

This clock was an optional exercise in the Texture Effects workshop. We were to use acrylic clock parts but I couldn't find any and didn't want to order. SO, being what I consider a resourceful person I purchased a sticker clock face and actual clock arms. I followed the project using the techniques just stamping on a transparency instead of acrylic. I then mounted it to a piece of cardboard.

WORKSHOPS

Lesson#5

In this lesson we were to do a transfer (Beauty) and the second ATC was using Fun Foam. For the transfer our choice was to use either water or gel medium. I used water for this one. Fun Foam was Fun! Glue down the foam then gesso over it the whole ATC. Pounce on paint over the whole card. When dry stamp over card and fun foam.

This card was made using the resist technique (Clear Resis Pad) and inks. The image was then cut into small strips, mounted on a small piece of cardstock so that it could be staggered. Then the whole piece was mounted on cardstock.
