A brilliant class with Jo Rice

Hello there! Well we had a treat of a class with Jo Rice yesterday. It was a Lavinia kind of day - and we made some fabulous cards .... here's my makes ...


Here they are all together ....I'll just briefly go through them ...


This was the first card - I used different colours from Jo and added the cat. The background is distress and I have used stickles around the dangling house image. All stamps are Lavinia.


This one was my fave make and is fairly similar to Jo's although I used slightly different stamps. Background is distress and all colouring is in distress although I added some liquid pearls. 


This one is entirely different to the one jo made at this point in the proceedings - I had just bought this little fella and really needed to use him. The background is distress and painting is distress. I also used a TH stencil and a Aall and create stencil plus green liquid pearls.


Finally I made two of the ATCs on the right  of the green man and swapped one for the ATC on the right. 

What a fabulous day - the girls did really well too - Lucy is now getting confident enough to not copy directly and after a few years of doing her own thing Penny has decided she wants to learn all the techniques properly so is keenly copying things! Times are a changing. 

Have a great Sunday - we're off to see Christopher Robin today. Looking forward to it!

Hugs
