FUN WITH WENDY VECCHI

I have long been a fan of one of the newest Ranger Signature Designers, Wendy Vecchi, so was delighted when I saw that she would be teaching a two-day class at Ink About It in Westford, MA!  Since I was already a "friend" of Wendy's on Facebook, the trepidation of attending a class without knowing anyone was absent and I was just going to meet a friend. Little did I know that I would be making more friends!

 The first day of class was spent learning more than 20 techniques of using all kinds of Ranger projects, most that I already had, and was able to learn how to use them in new ways!  Here's one of my favorite tags we made that day using the Tim Holtz "burnt edge technique."

The stamps I used were designed by Wendy!

 The second day was all about creating an art journal.  Here is my front cover, created using Wendy's "art parts."


Here's a photo with Wendy (standing on the right) and my new friends, Ali, Susan and Nancy:

Thanks for stopping by today!  I appreciate both your visits and your comments!

 Cheers!

    I'm loving this burnt edge technique. Can I find this technique on the web somewhere? Looks like you all had a blast. :)
