August 2020 Lineup


Ready for Classes?
August 2020 Schedule

We had a great Preview Day on Saturday and the Make 'n Take To Go Kit was a hit.  Here's the finished product.....


Stamps by Impression Obsession, green dot paper by BoBunny.  The kit included all the layers and uncolored stamped layers.  You could color it any way you like.  I used the Dina Wakley Scribble Sticks in Magenta Evergreen, Olive, and Umber.  I colored parts of the flower and leaves with the sticks and then activited it with water using a Simply Simmons #8 watercolor brush.  For the think stems and smaller leaves I touched the Scribble Sticks with the wet brush and then painted the smaller parts.

There are a few stamps left as well as a few sheets of the BoBunny paper.

Lisa has an outstanding class schedule for August.  The introduction of Lisa's classes is the main reason we have Preview Day.  You get to see them up close and enroll on the spot!

Here's the fabulous schedule!
