Class Projects - Kaitlyn's Crop Scrappin' Rodeo 2019
July 09, 2019
This Friday I'll be teaching at Kaitlyn's Crop in Spring, TX, plus setting up a full trunk show at the Scrapp'n Savvy booth. If you're coming to the event come see me at the booth.
The class is sold out, but I'll be there all day to answer questions, show all the beautiful samples, demo, etc.
CLASS PROJECTS:
You will be making two cards featuring our brand new release. First up, a Photo Collage Pop-up card, embellished with the Memory Charms, Border Blends - Argyle and Word Set 10 - Thinking of You.
For my sample card I added photos of our very talented Design Team and then labeled their photos with a Dymo manual labelmaker.
Next, we'll make a card using the newly re-released Barn Pop Stand and embellished with the Chicken, Pig and Lamb, Cow and Goat, Tiny Accessories 3, Farm Edges, Crosshatch Squares, Border Blends- Party and Howdy die sets.
The Barn is a fun die because it has very easy assembly, plus a double reveal - after opening the card and watching the barn pop up, you can also slide the doors open to reveal a hidden surprise. For our card it will be a cute lamb peeking out.
To my students - the e-mail went out yesterday with the What to Bring list but here it is again. I also e-mailed you the latest catalog in PDF form in case you want to print that for reference.
- Scissors
- All types of adhesive including: glue capable of making a fine line (crucial for the animals), tape runner, strong double-sided tape like tacky tape or scor tape in any width, pop dots and glue dots.
- Black pen - you’ll need this for nostrils, hooves and tractor wheels
- Gray marker - optional, but looks nice on inside of camera lens - I used a Comic C5, but any medium gray marker would work
- Paper piercer and something to pierce into, like a small piece of foam.
- Quickstik or tweezers - very helpful when assembling animals
- Pen or pencil
- Wink of Stella or similar glitter pen to add sparkle to the heart (optional)
- 9 small square photos sized to 1.25” square if you want no inside black border, or 1 1/8” square for a border.
- To print photos at home, pull them into Word or a photo editing program like Photoshop, crop them into a square, size them to 1.25” (or 1.125” square) and print.
- If you want an easy way to get 9 photos sized perfectly for your card, use Walgreens online photo app with their 4x4 Collage Print for $0.49. Here’s a YouTube video that shows exactly how to do it. https://youtu.be/KHw-w7FanbA
- Print the photos of the cards shown below or save them to your phone or tablet to refer to in class.
OPTIONAL - watch these assembly videos for the two pop-up dies to familiarize yourself with the process.
