CTMH projects

Here is what we did last night at make & take part of meeting. So much fun!





The paper bag card is great to slip in a gift certificate, tickets or an extra note or card. Colours are outdoor denim, and honey. All materials are CTMH except for paper bag. On the first "t" we did a faux mask technique ( or that is what I am calling it) and the second "t" is kiss and stamp. For the faux mask, you choose a solid block type of stamp (stamp A) and ink on in a lighter colour, and then take a contrast or second colour and use a high contrast detail stamp (stamp B) to stamp on your solid stamp (stamp A). Then "huff" on your stamp and stamp on your CS. For kiss and stamp you do the same thing except you don't pick a second colour of ink - you stamp with the detail stamp withough any ink - after each stamping with stamp B, you stamp off.

In the above example, the "t" is stamp A and the flower from Alfresco is stamp B.
