Apr 7: Lady Vagabond Notebook
I have enjoyed making this class using Stamperia “Lady Vagabond” collection and different mixed media techniques to create this A4 hard covered notebook. Using some Stamperia aqua colours and liquid acrylics from Finnabair you will create this leather look background, stenciled with pastes and then decorated using rice paper and chipboard that you magically turn into the rust effect. Leave it as a notebook or change it into a junk journal.
Apr 7: Mixed Media Collage Landscape
Mixed Media Collage Landscape - In mixed media there is a term " crash the stash" - this is what our abstract collage landscapes need! All the bits and pieces of scrap paper , printed words, rice paper, Muslim fabric, and whatever else has texture ! Bring your stash along to class. Small stamps and stencils will also be used to enhance our landscape . We will be creating two landscapes in our art journal or small canvas.
Apr 7: Threads Of Love
In the class of May, we will create four very pretty cards featuring soft shades of peachy pinks, greens & neutrals. The reels of threads depict it’s love that binds us together. Then adding some flowers, gathered frilly lace, crochet lace and ribbons to finish off these cards which I am sure will delight the recipient.
Apr 7: Parchment Class Card
This cute card would suit many different occasions. The skills include colouring on vellum, embossing on colouring and on a template. This class is suitable for beginners. The original design was by Martha Ospina from her book "Pergamano Masterpieces".

Want to get lots of photos on a layout? Want an interesting layout that has interactive elements that can be lifted, pulled or opened to reveal hidden areas? In this month’s class, we will create a double layout with space for 30 photos. It has plenty of “openable” areas to showcase all your favourite photos.

Do you love steampunk and storage? Well, we combine both to create this wonderfully textured heart shaped box, suitable for holding treasures and secrets. We play with molds and how to set them then detail the sides of the box, adding colour and interest along the way. Then we will add shine and colour with inks, pastes and waxes, to give a lustrous finish. This is truly a glorious project, one to keep or treasure with a very practical purpose, a must for mixed media fans.
