I have a workshop booked for a week from Saturday! Woohoo! It has been SO long that I will have to work on my presentation skills! I’m so excited…I just can’t hide it! (Sorry! Didn’t mean to hurt your ears with that rendition! :) ) We are making a slider card, the butterfly card below and a 6x6 scrapbook page. Will be working on cutting this weekend.

Technique Corner – Faux Linen
You can get this unique look by scratching the surface of glossy cardstock.
1. Stamp a background image on glossy cardstock. Ensure it is dry before the next step.
2. Use a light grade sandpaper or sanding block and make vertical movements up and down over the entire piece of cardstock.
3. Now sand horizontally; continue sanding until all the glossy is removed.
4. Apply a light color of ink over the top with a sponge brayer or regular sponge. 5. Lighten the color more by sanding over once again vertically.
6. Now you can finish your card! NOTE: You can stamp an image on this piece, add layers, etc. Make it your own!
