Do you have the Distress inks?? Do you use them to their potential?? Are you wondering what else you can do with them?  Do you know about the blending tool and the best way to use it?  How about those cute mini misters??  Why do I NEED a craft sheet?  Want to try a new technique using white PIGMENT ink...combining it with your distress inks?  What do I do with Perfect Pearls?

Want answers . . . This class is perfect for you!

 

Wendy will share TONS of info and show you how to use your Distress Inks and Ranger products in this FUN...TECHNIQUES class. She will use the same format that was used at Ranger U.  Each technique will be done on a manila tag, and you will leave with a set of tags that makes a wonderful reference for future play.

 

No note taking will be needed, as each tag will be labeled with full instructions on how each technique was done.  We'll ink, distress, crackle, emboss & IRON....IRON??  Don't worry. Ironing is a GOOD thing if you're making art!  This is a class you won't want to miss.

There will be a HUGE box of treasures.  We’ll start by making the wings from Grungeboard . . . a fun new product.  You’ll choose the wing style you like, then add the embellishments of your choice.  Want him to have a flower hat?  Sunglasses?  What will you put in his beak?  The tail will be custom made too with Grungeboard . . . You’ll have lots of choices, to make this guy uniquely YOURS!  At the end of this class, you’ll take home a ONE OF A KIND bird.  Bring your camera . . . Each will be totally different because the possibilities are endless!  Once home, you can take him off the base and add him to a different resting place.  I’ll have some examples to show you in the class.
