Mari C: October 30 (Online - No Kit), Character Cuties Cards with AALL & Create

Join Mari for a fun class where she will share techniques to create adorable AALL & Create

character cutie cards. Mari will share ways to add pigment to stamped images with a variety of mediums including inks, reinkers, watercolor pencils and more. You will also learn how to create gorgeous dramatic backgrounds.

Please note: no kit will be provided for this class. You’ll be using products from your own stash, so be sure to refer to the handout for a complete list of supplies you'll need to bring. 

Students will want to have the following supplies, but have the flexibility to choose specific items from their own stash based on their personal preferences and creative style. Mari has also provided a list of products she used to complete her cards as shown—these are great for inspiration, but you do not need to have everything listed here to participate.

For example:

• You can use your own stamps—any designs that spark your creativity
• For ink blending, Distress Oxide or Distress Inks work beautifully
• Any watercolor or water based dye ink or pigment ink is suitable for coloring techniques - including watercolour powders

Feel free to mix and match with what you already have on hand!"
