Crafty Secrets Car Classics

These are some cards from a class I taught last year. It was a Stamp of the Month class, and the stamp set we used was Car Classics from Crafty Secrets.

I was a little excited to hold a class with this set because our customers often comment that they are stumped when it comes to making cards for men.

This first card uses paper from October Afternoon, with a little sponged ink and some layering onto black cardstock. We stamped onto cream gloss cardstock with black StazOn ink.



This next card has Graphic 45 papers from a couple of different ranges on it, and some light colouring with Copics to match the King of the Road emblem to the papers:


This next card has paper from Teresa Collins, some sponging with Distress Inks and spritzing with water. Love this technique to really age a piece:


This last card is the more technically difficult card (I like to include one in most classes).  The paper is October Afternoon, and the car was coloured with Copics before being fussy cut.


 We made the car pop through the paper - love how this turned out:



Thanks for looking!
