Grungy layouts

10th of September 2009

Keepsake Krafts

7.30pm - 10.30pm

In this class we will showcase a fantastic and very addictive product called Grunge Paper. I have fallen in love with the possibilities created by this product. Come along to make a tag from Grunge Paper and then use it on a layout.

Grunge paper will be available on the night for $4.50 per sheet (usually sold in a pack of 3).

Supplies needed:
One photo 4" x 6" (portrait).
One photo 3.5" x 4" (portrait) - a standard size photo can be cut to this size easily.
One piece of low patterned paper for a background.
One piece of Grunge Paper.
One strip of patterned paper.
One piece of gauze.
Alphabet for a title.
Gel pen for journaling.
Favourite background stamp if you have one (text looks beautiful).
Favourite Glimmer Mist if you have it (I used Old Lace).
Distress Inks to match your layout if you have them (I only have a very small range - a blue, a green, red and a range of browns).
Stazon Ink if you have it (I used navy).
Colour wash if you have a favourite (I used stream and espresso).
Gell medium if you have it.
Mini Mister if you have one.
Sand paper.
Foam inking sponges if you have them.
Scalloped boarder punch.
Pinking shears.
Heat tool if you have one (this will make it faster on the night!).
Brayer if you have one.
Wet glue.
Water mister.

Techniques used:
Colour washing, inking, tag making, altered surfaces, dying, painting, salting, background stamping, altered backgrounds, distressing, distress and roll, fabric colouring, using fabric on a layout, hand journaling, dry embossing, die cutting.

There are only two spots left, so book in fast!!

Hope to see you there.

Specifications of this class may change without notice.
