Graphicus Workshop Makes

[Phree]

I have been busy since I got home, first enjoying the rest of our holiday time together with hubby - cuz we both work odd shifts we almost never actually have a full 24 hours together so we were making the most of our remaining time off. Hubby was due back at work before me this week and I had promised myself that my craft room would receive a very sorely needed tidy up and I would not touch so much as a stamp or inkpad until it was done! Anyhow I spent the first couple of days this week clearing out gawd knows how much rubbish and trying to re-organise my stash into some semblance of tidyness. The end result being that it was yesterday before I could finish of the cards I made at the workshops. Glenda had crammed so much in it was difficult for a slow crafter like me to keep up, but that's good cuz it means I got to try more stuff, I did finish one of the 3 cards at the workshop, but the other 2 needed to be assembled from the various elements we had made once I got home. Anyhow here are 2 of them.....the third card I will probably change as we had been colouring in an image of the Three Kings on acetate but I am not happy with my colouring in so I think I will make something else to mount onto the card we had begun.

Here are 2 of the 3 cards we made, they are Glenda's designs and you may recall seeing her demo these on Create and Craft.

We also made a lovely Christmas Organiser book with Lynn, that too needs the finishing touches added to it, so pics of that will follow later.

Thanks for the kind words, I can't really take credit for the cards cuz they are Glenda's designs, but it was lots of fun making them. We used so many lovely products including Glimmer Mists and Tinkabella inks. The Tinkabella inks are lovely to use and I like they way they dry with a subtle gloss.

Lovely Phree - I see what you mean about the techniques being those used on the C&C shows.

They're lovely cards Phree. It's great to be able to go to a workshop like that and come away with a couple of gorgeous cards that can give you inspiration to use similar techniques with stamps and papers that you maybe already own.
