Advanced Techniques Class

Yesterday, I hosted a stamp camp here at my home. Originally, I was going to have it on a Sunday (last weekend), but several gals couldn't make it due to prior commitments but some could make it. So, I had this brilliant idea... I'll have one on Sunday & then one the following Saturday. I have a big house, but not a huge stamping space & so I thought having it broken up into two days would fix that issue...

Well, it would have worked out that way if everyone from Sunday's camp hadn't cancelled to come to Saturday's camp. I had 10 people stamping at my house yesterday afternoon for 3 hours.

I love these gals who came over. I don't get to see some of them all too often & so it's fun to catch up on what's going on in each other's lives.


After my camp, I went to a camp to do a little stampin myself. We learned 5 'advanced techniques' & they turned out beautiful:

1. Acetate Card
2. Criss-Cross Card
3. Cracked Glass Card
4. Brayered Sky Card
5. Faux Silk Card

I wouldn't incorporate all of them into one camp (unless I did *JUST* an advanced technique class), but maybe throw one in every now and again to demonstrate something new.

Can you show pictures of the advanced techniques? Sounds like fun, and the camp was a hoot! Thanks :)

I will take pictures tonight & upload them. A couple of them, however, are ones where you need to see it in person to really *see* the technique used.
