More fun with Sue









Front cover


Carol and I went to The Stamp Attic yesterday for another class with Sue Roddis. This time we did Faux Metal (or Forks Metal as we kept calling it, lol).


We covered card with foil, ran it through a Cuttlebug to emboss or deboss, and then added black paint .....which was then wiped off. Next came the Stazon inks, applied with fingers - I'm still trying to get that off!!

All the extra bits were made by colouring blobs on to a piece of shiny card in a Playgroup kind of way, and then stamping and cutting out the images. Finally, the pages were joined with ribbon to form a small book.

Much mess was made, and great fun was had....Thanks a million Sue, will miss you when you go to Khazakstan (OMG!!)
