Workshop Wednesday...

Good evening all, and how has you day been? We had great workshops in Hazel Grove today and played with Clarity Stencils, Stamps, Stencil brushes , the Gelli Plate and yes even Billy Brayer came out to play.

We used Adirondack inks on the Gelli plate, here is a close up...

This Poppy card was created by first inking the Gelli plate with Stonewashed ink, dabbing with scrunched paper and taking a background print. Then placing the poppy stencil onto the Gelli Plate and dabbing ink through the stencil with sponges. When the stencil is removed this is what is left.

Then you just take another print.

How cool is that ? ....and even better, take another print to make an insert....

Oh I do love to play....

Again,

And again. ( thanks to Barbara Gray for the inspiration for this one.)

Right I need to get on now....it is a new Challenge tomorrow on the Clarity blog....so jobs to get done from my list....
Thanks for coming today ladies and Angela thanks for the yummy biscuits.
I need to write and schedule my blog post for 8am tomorrow.....
So see you then, enjoy your evening...
Much love and hugs...

Love this top one Jo (and the rest of course). I think it is the colour you have used that makes it my favourite. I should really look into getting a Gelli. Hugs xx
