Give a Cheer
In January I went to two workshops at Scrapbook Territory in Berkeley, California; the instructor was Lynell Harlow, owner of Dreamweaver. Georgia Sommers was there too--two terrific teachers and wonderful classes. All of my cards are pretty close copies of Lynell's sample cards seen in the fourth scan above.
This workshop was on 1- and 2-step Faux Cloissonè. I love this technique.
This is the Sample Board.
TIPS
Use regular matte embossing paste, white or yellow, as when doing the cloisonné technique. Lynell says she uses yellow if she's using a floral design.
Lynell uses Splendor pigment ink which has many colors on one larger ink pad. She used the Circus Color set which has vivid, clear colors. The colors change because of the yellow paste base, so it might be a good idea to experiment.
Lynell uses one brush for yellow, one brush for warm colors, one brush for cool colors.
In the steps, I keep saying to clean the stencil. Actually, unless you need it for the next step, you can just put it in a container of water until you're ready to clean it. You can add Dawn Liquid Dish Detergent or Simple Green if you want to. I do.
