Here it is... my first class of 2012! Are you an embellishment junkie? Well, anyone who knows me or my work, knows that I can not live with out my embellies. That my friends is why I can never go digital... definitely would like to try hybrid but not digital... I'm getting off topic, aren't I? Anyway, being the embellishment junkie that I am, I have found that some embellishments out there are just too pricey. I mean just the other day, I found a card in a high-end card store that had ribbon flowers arranged to look like a cupcake for $7! I can make that! So I am here to show you how to make your very own embellishments that you can use on your layouts, in mini albums, on mixed media and home decor projects, even on your clothes, bags, and accessories... and oh yes, on your cards! I'll show you how to use inexpensive supplies, some of which you may already have in your crafty arsenal, to make these gorgeous embellies. ALL the embellishments you see below will be handmade by you in class...
You will learn how to turn crocheted trim, zippers, and fabric into flowers, how to dye your own seam binding or silk ribbon, various stitching techniques including the blanket stitch, how to transform some felt, poly-fil, and some dies into a something cute and fluffy. And oh yea... make a few cards, complete with accents on the inside and on your envelopes, while you are at it! Your class kit will also include a full 6x6 pad of Crate Paper's Paper Heart Collection, a variety of envelopes, and a full sheet of various sentiments so that you can make more cards for any occassion.
