This Friday's meeting will be about crafting and the internet.  We will learn how to get onto Pintrest and set up boards and also how to search google for crafting and card making sites.

Pinterest requires that you be invited to the site by a member so if you are not already a member of Pinterest send me an email and I will set up the invite for you.

Friday, September 14 Meeting

BLACK MAGIC

No, it’s not about Halloween. It’s a simple stamping technique that has many possibilities. If you look up the web sites listed at the bottom of the page, you’ll know exactly what we’ll be doing at our September 14 meeting.  The supplies to bring are basic tools.

 Here’s what you will need:

Black cardstock

Rubber stamp with solid images (not just line images)
White CRAFT ink
Colored pencils (useful to have two or three shades of a few colors)
Pencil sharpener
White gel pen

Optional:

Heat gun to dry craft ink more quickly

If you want to make a finished card you might also need:

Cardstock that will coordinate with your colored pencils

Coordinating designer paper, ribbon, and other embellishments

Paper cutter

Tape runner

 Here are some web sites. If you Google “black magic stamping technique,” you’ll find tutorials and even videos. Come with lots of ideas.  We’ll surely get lots of tips from each other.
