Geisha faux postage ATC


Geisha faux postage
Originally uploaded by saunjune

I made most of this card sometime ago.  It is the second card I am sending Jennifer!  The background was made by inking the inside of a plastic folder, a few drips from 2 - 3 different colors, then squishing a glossy sheet of paper between the inked up folder.  I will try to make a tutorial to explain that better.  (I just have to find some time first...lol).  It was then stamped w/ Staz-on ink in black, I think I used a Hero Arts stamp, but I could be wrong.  And I really don't want to dig through my cache of rubber stamps right now to find out.  :)  I stamped over the geisha image with postal themed stamps, then mounted the image to some fancy hand screened, yummy, fiber-y paper.  Tah-da!

Out of the box

I just got home from teaching to an amazing group of ladies!  The class was so much fun I decided not only to blog about it but share the instructions as well!  Here is a tutorial for making a Steampunk inspired cigar box!  It is part of a series of classes I am teaching in tandem with Sondra K. called Cheaper than Therapy.  Spending an evening in a room filled with fun and creative people is theraputic indeed.  Well, on with the tutorial! Out of the Box In this class we created a paper covered foam frame to top a paper covered cigar box.  We used Graphic45 papers, Tim Holtz gear die cuts, and lots of fun industrial looking embellishments! Basics that you will need: A cigar box or paper mache box Paper trimmer Scissors Ruler PVA glue Glossy Accents glue 3-d foam dots or tape Foam-core board cut into 1.5 inch strips Cardstock Fun embellishments (gears, brads, bling, etc) Frame This First measure the top...
