Pat Carr's Camp Avalon May 2016 - With Sympathy

Hi there,
I attended Pat Carr's Camp Avalon a couple of weeks ago at Toodyay.  We made 24 Projects and had a great time catching up with old and new friends. Card designed by Andrea Buckland.  I changed the design a little by placing the white die cut so it just outlines the stamped image on the front.  Andrea had also coloured the die cut but I left mine white and I added some designer paper to the back of the front panel because my water colouring had come all the way through to the back.



Supplies:
Stamps: S/U's Rose Wonder
Card: Whisper White, Patterns Stack - Subtles
Ink: Stazon Black, Pear Pizzazz, Wild Wasabi, Pink Pirouette, Rose Red
Finishing Touches: Clear Sequins
Cool Tools: Big Shot, Sizzix Rose Garden Thinlits Dies, Stamp-a-ma-jig, Aqua Painter,
Thanks for visiting today. Happy Crafting!

Pat Carr's Camp Avalon May 2016 - Tunnel Card #2

Hi there,
I attended Pat Carr's Camp Avalon a couple of weeks ago at Toodyay.  We made 24 Projects and had a great time catching up with old and new friends. This was the first Tunnel Card I designed but I found that the bold sentiment inside the tunnel showed through the white card onto the front and I was not happy with that so I changed it to a coloured front and you can find that card in yesterday's post here.  Otherwise I think it is very pretty made in these colours, what do you think?
Supplies:
Stamps: S/U's Sweet Stack, Sprinkles of Life, Timeless Textures, Botanical Blooms
Card: Thick and Thin Whisper White, Pool Party, Bermuda Bay, Soft Sky, Always Artichoke, Old Olive, Wild Wasabi, Silver Glitter Card, Colour Me Irresistible DSP

Pat Carr's Camp Avalon May 2016 - Wax Paper Emboss Resist Technique

Hi there,
I attended Pat Carr's Camp Avalon a couple of weeks ago at Toodyay.  This is one of my Shoe Box projects that I created for the camp.  I used waxed paper and the Sizzix Spring Bouquet embossing folder for the emboss resist technique for the background. You emboss the wax paper with the embossing folder and then iron the pattern (iron set to dry ironing) onto the card inside a piece of copy paper and the wax transfers to the card.  Then you sponge ink over the card and your pattern magically appears.  Very easy technique to do.  I faded the sponging for the solid part of the butterfly looking for more dimension.  The scalloped edge was made with the Dotted Scallop Ribbon Border Punch.



Supplies:
Stamps: S/U's Butterfly Basics
Card: Thick and Thin Whisper White, Old Olive, Calypso Coral
Ink: Old Olive, Calypso Coral
Finishing Touches: Crystals
Cool Tools: Big Shot, Sizzix Butterflies Thinlits Dies, Wax Paper, Copy Paper, Iron, Spring Bouquet E/Folder, Sponges, Dotted Scallop Ribbon Border Punch, Dble Sided Tape, Foam Tape
