January Card Club Pt 2

 January card club part 2 was all about using Serene Silhouettes and trying out some new techniques.

This card needed a lot of drying time before we could put it together so we started the workshop by doing the background. The background was made by inking up an acrylic block with 4 different colour inks, spritzing the block with water then pressing it onto cardstock.

 We used:

• Very Vanilla cardstock
• Real Red cardstock
• Real Red ink
• Tangelo Twist ink
• So Saffron ink
• Lost Lagoon ink
• Decorative Dots embossing folder
• Memento black ink

 The next card we tried out the emboss resist technique.

We used:

• Marina Mist cardstock
• Whisper White cardstock
• Soft Sky cardstock
• Colour Collections DSP
• Pearl Basic Jewels
• White Stampin' Emboss Powder
• Marina Mist ink
• Petite Petals stamp set
• Petite Petals punch
• Stylish Stripes embossing folder
• Sponge Daubers
• Modern Label punmch
• Word Window punch

 Then we did another messy background technique using daubers and vellum.

We used:

• Very Vanilla cardstock
• Memento black ink
• Night Of Navy ink
• So Saffron ink
• Marina Mist ink
• Wild Wasabi ink
• White vellum cardstock
• Blooming With Kindness stamp set
• Sponge Daubers

The last card wasn't difficult as such, just fiddly to get the unched holes to align with the embossed stamps.

 We used:

• Very Vanilla cardstock 
• Word Window punch
• Modern Label punch
• 1 3/4 circle punch
• Bitty Butterfly punch
• Gold Stampin' Emboss Powder
• Pearl Basic Jewels
• Gold Foil Sheets
• Project Life Corner Punch

Next month's card club is all about Celebrate Today and the Balloon Framelits dies.
