<anno> heh.. I just got 900 windows open, renee, and my pirch has a mind of it's own.

<cindyc> ok

anno is stuck pondering taxidermyauctions

<anno> (maybe there's penguins...)

<ReneeZ> TRIA INKS ARE MADE BY PANTONE IN ENGLAND. THE INKS ARE SHIPPED OVER..NOT FLOWN...

<anno> stuffed penguin would look nice over in that corner over there...

RubberRabbit thinks> stuffed stampers who don't pay their bills?

<beanjean> uh, renee, did YOU do any of these cards???

<ReneeZ> NO, BEANJEAN, OUR HOME BURNED TO THE GROUND ON 6/3 SO MY LIFE HAS BEEN A LITTLE MESSED UP.

<ReneeZ> YUP, MY DH LIFE DREAM AND HE BUILT THE HOME ALMOST BY HIMSELF, BY HAND.

<anno> geezle...

<anno> I hope you had goooood insurance...

<cak> Renee! My dear--we're so sorry to hear.

<ReneeZ> WE WERE 6 WEEKS FROM MOVING IN SO WE DIDN'T LOSE ANY PERSONAL BELONGINGS BUT...OUR LIFE SAVINGS...

<anno> so's he can do it again.

<ReneeZ> WELL, IF YOU SAW DATELINE'S SPECIAL ON STATE FARM LAST NITE....OH WELL, ON WITH CLASS.

<anno> (so shop big, folks! we're havin' a houseraisin'!)

<cindyc> wow......

<anno> wait... I didn't see that..

<ReneeZ> OK! BACK TO CLASS...STUDENTS! (BUT THANK YOU!)

<StampnBev> We're grateful you're taking time to be with us!

<anno> statefarm insures my house..

<anno> hmm.

<anno> ok.. I'll hunt that down later.

<anno> teach me to polish a rock!

<cindyc> the samples are beautiful!

<ReneeZ> WELL, I NEED TO DO A SOCIAL HOUR TO EXPLAIN TO YOU WHAT YOUR HOMEOWNER'S POLICY REALLY COVERS!

<ReneeZ> BACK TO TRIA INKS....

<ReneeZ> THEY GET HERE VIA BOAT FROM ENGLAND AND TAKE FOREVER.

<Scout> Yeah, I saw that show and wondered if Farmers Insurance is the same.

<cindyc> gee i wish i had seen the show...

<Professor> me too

<Professor> I have SF

<brenda> me too

<ReneeZ> YOU WILL SEE THE INKS ADVERTISED AT DIFFERENT PRICES AND SOLD AT DIFFERENT PRICES OVER THE INTERNET AND BY "BRICK AND MORTOR"

<linda> i have allstate

<Mar> What is Brick and Mortor?

<Professor> OK Let's let Renee Teach!!!!

<klutz> what's the difference between the 2?

<anno> (wow.. I just went to do a quick toss the leftovers in the fridge wipe the counters and found my KID doing it..)

<ReneeZ> bRICK AND MORTER IS AN ACTUAL STORE

<anno> (it's a miracle)

<deb> take conversations to cyberstampers

beanjean says 'anno, thank heaven for small miracles'!

<anno> there's a real store called brick and moarter?

<anno> mortor?

<anno> morter?

<ReneeZ> I WANT YOU TO KNOW THAT WHEN I PUT IN MY ORDER FOR TRIA INKS, 46% OF THE COLORS I ORDERED WERE OUT OF STOCK.

<Professor> yes that happens

<brenda> wow

<anno> wow..

<stamp202> Are these made of gold?

<cindyc> are they the only inks that work for this technique????

<anno> do you have a color chart, renee?

<ReneeZ> I WENT FROM THE U.S. DISTRIBUTOR TO A SUPPLIER (WHO HAS INCORRECT PRICES ON THE INTERNET SITE THAT ARE NOT WHAT THEY SELL THEM AT)

<elegant_st> is there something else that we can use?

<froggie> What is so special about these inks

<anno> (in other words, after class, can you help me pick a color to compliment the ones I have already?)

<Professor> no, you can use Studio ink refills

<ReneeZ> AND I TRIED TO BUY MORE INKS FROM THEM. ALMOST 50% OF THE COLORS WERE UNAVAILABLE.

<CrowFeathe> will you be giving some great color combinations?

<Professor> yes

<ReneeZ> YES, STUDIO II INKS BUT I UNDERSTAND THEY DON'T WORK AS WELL.

<Professor> no they are paler

<cindyc> what are these inks made of?

<Professor> much paler

<Professor> they have an alcohol base

<cindyc> what about prisma?

<Professor> so they are permanent and dry fast

<ReneeZ> OK...FOR THOSE OF YOU AT THE SOCIAL HOUR, THAT'S WHY I PROVIDED YOU WITH THE OTHER COLORS I HAVE BECAUSE IT WILL BE A MINIMUM OF TWO WEEKS BEFORE I CAN GET ANYMORE WITH ABSOLUTELY NO GUARANTEE. LORRIE OR OTHERS, ANYTHING YOU WANT TO ADD?

<anno> I don't think prisma makes refills.

<brenda> what about excelsior?

<Professor> prisma does not have ink refills

<cindyc> hmm we should make them change that... lol

<Professor> same with excelsior

<cindyc> on with the class!!!! †

<ReneeZ> OK. SO WHEREVER YOU BUY YOUR INKS...USE THEM CAREFULLY!

<Professor> they go far

<brenda> ok

<ReneeZ> SUPPLIES VARY BY WHOMEVER TEACHES SO HERE'S WHAT I SUGGEST:

<ReneeZ> TRIA RE-INKERS (2-3 TO START)

<ReneeZ> RUBBING ALCOHOL

<brenda> clear or green alcohol

<ReneeZ> FELT, SPONGE (MAKEUP APPLICATION TYPE)

<Imastamper> I gotta scoot. Bye everyone

<ReneeZ> I USE A SMALL WOOD BLOCK WITH VELCRO LOOP TAPE

<Professor> I prefer 2x2 squares of felt

<ReneeZ> AND ATTACH THE FELT ONTO THIS

<anno> green? probably it doesn't matter much, specially if you're using blue/green colors!

<CrowFeathe> who was it that used tampax?

<ReneeZ> KRYLON LEAFING PENS (SILVER, COPPER OR GOLD) THESE ARE ALCOHOL-BASED

<cindyc> you are losing me here.....

<CrowFeathe> really someone did use it instead of felt

<ReneeZ> ACETATE (TYPE USED FOR OVERHEAD PROJECTORS IS WHAT I USE)

<ReneeZ> GLOSSY CARDSTOCK THAT DOESN'T HAVE TO BE WHITE

<ReneeZ> SIMPLE GREEN TO WIPE UP ANY SPILLS

<cindyc> will it completely cover the cs? i have some greenish that i don't like... lol

<anno> this is just supply list, cindy..

<ReneeZ> SURE!

<anno> simple green will clean this stuff up??

<anno> (will it get it offa wood??)

<Sweetpea> Hi - what is the topic?

<ReneeZ> I'D SUGGEST 65-80# CS...LORRIE OR ANYONE ELSE HAVE SUGGESTIONS ON SUPPLIES?

anno had an ooops on her table

<ReneeZ> POLISH STONE

<anno> disposable rubber gloves.

<anno> did you list those?

<ReneeZ> BY THE WAY, SUZE WILL BE DOING THIS ON THE CAROL DUVALL SHOW LATE NOV OR DEC

<Scout> Every time your ReneeZ comes up on the screen, I keep thinking about the actress and what is she doing here.....

<Sweetpea> are these real stones?

<Professor> those work for me--I want to hear what the acetate is for

<anno> yeah, that acetate intrigued me too!

<beanjean> LOL scout

<ReneeZ> TO ME THE KEY TO THIS TECHNIQUE IS PREPARATION AND TIMING

<anno> (but the gloves are important)

<anno> (IMO)

<Professor> gloves are essential--unless you want polished hands

anno is messy

<elegant_st> what is simple green?

<anno> a cleaner thingie... get it at sams... environmentally good.

<ReneeZ> I DON'T USE DISPOSABLE GLOVES BUT MY HANDS ARE A MESS. I'D ALSO SUGGEST A PLASTICTABLE CLOTH OR WAX PAPER OR NEWSPAPER TO PROTECT YOUR TABLE

dbstampin thinks> adding gloves to shopping list

<elegant_st> thanks.

<neetztuff> Sorry I'm late. Is there a URL?

<anno> cleans up oil spills but don't hurt fishes.

<Mar> Simple Green is a super-duper cleaning product.

<anno> http://sites.netscape.net/lorrieo/polishedstones

<brenda> http://www.taxidermyauctions.com/whipperstampers/card_gallery.htm

<ReneeZ> ALCOHOL-BASED PRODUCTS CAN PERMANENTLY STAIN! REMEMBER THIS OR PREPARE TO CRY IF IT LANDS ON YOUR TABLE

<anno> oh good.. brenda has the taxidermy one...

<anno> shoot.

<anno> so much for my table..

<Professor> the ones on the netscape site are just raw backgrounds

<ReneeZ> OK. I USUALLY USE 1/4 CUT GLOSOSY CARDSTOCK AND I SHAKE THE KRYLON PENS TO GET THEM READY

<ReneeZ> SOORY FOR THE MISTYPING...STOP ME IF I CONFUSE YOU

<beanjean> Renee you're doing fine

<Professor> you are doing great Renee!!!!!

<anno> 'k.. so my cardstock is cut in 4ths and my pens are shaked.

<brenda> doing great

<Professor> and your table is protected

<ReneeZ> SO, YOU HAVE IN FRONT OF YOU 2-3 REFILL INKERS, GLOSSY CARDSTOCK, AN APPLICATOR (FELT, SPONGE, ETC.) AND KRYLON PENS ALL SHOOK UP...RIGHT?

<anno> and I got a LOT Of paper on my table,

<anno> and my gloves are on!

<ReneeZ> YES, DON'T FORGET YOUR GLOVES!

<Professor> make that plastic anno

<anno> oh.

<anno> ok..

<anno> freezer wrap on my table, paper side up.

anno loves freezer wrap.

<Professor> that works

<ReneeZ> NOW, I'VE READ ALOT OF DIFFERENT FEELINGS ABOUT THE KRYLON PENS, YOU DON'T NEED TO USE THEM BUT THEY CREATE "VEINS" WHEN YOU USE THEM WITH THE INKNS.

<Professor> my samples use them

<anno> marvy's don't work, do don't try.

anno did that for you.

<ReneeZ> GOOD!

<anno> don't waste 'em.

<ReneeZ> I READ THAT IF YOU PUT ALCOHOL ON THE FELT THEN YOU CAN USE THE MARVEYS....HAS ANYONE TRIED THIS?

<anno> oh.

<Professor> right anno--everything must be alcohol based--never water based

<anno> no, I didn't try that..

<ReneeZ> GOING ON WITH KRYLON PENS AND TRIA INKS

<anno> I suck at polished stones, but I DO know what doesn't work!

<Professor> lol

<cindyc> ( i wonder if i can mix alcohol with rit powder dye......) LOL

<Professor> chemistry 101

<anno> hey val

<anno> janet!

<Janet> anno!

<Professor> go on Renee

<ReneeZ> I TAKE THE CAPS OFF THE TRIA INK BOTTLES AND THEN TAKE A KRYLON PEN AND DAB A FEW BLOBS ON THE CS.

beanjean says 'WOW the gangs all here!!

<CrowFeathe> what sorts of things did you hear, reneez about the krylons?

<ReneeZ> ONLY POSITIVE THINGS ON THE KRYLONS...

<Professor> not just marks, but push down and leave a puddle

<ReneeZ> YUP, PUDDLES...THANKS

<anno> maybe that's one of my problems.. not enough puddle..

<ReneeZ> AND DON'T DO GOBS ON THE CARD

<anno> oh.. maybe it's not.

<anno> hmm.

<ReneeZ> TIMING IS EVERYTHING HERE BECAUSE THE MARKERS AND INKS ARE ALCOHOL-BASED AND ARE EVAPORATING AS YOU USE THEM.

<Professor> yes-don't get distracted

<ReneeZ> AFTER THE PUDDLES, USE ONE INK AND POUR (THAT'S A LITTLE EXCESSIVE USE OF WORD) A LINE ON THE FELT, THEN USE THE SECOND COLOR AND DRAW A LINE ALSO ON THE FELT BUT DON'T OVERLAP

<Janet> Renee, latecomer question... I put the leafing pen puddles on my paper or on my felt with the other inks?

<ReneeZ> I ONLY DO IT ON THE CS..WELCOME!

<Professor> paper only

<Janet> ah okay.

<Professor> but it will transfer to the felt as you work it

<Janet> what happens if you put it on the felt instead?

<Janet> (she asks nervously, looking at leafing pen on her felt)

<Professor> hmmm

<ReneeZ> THEN, WITH THE TRIA INK FELT, DAB, ROLL, ALL OVER THE CARDSTOCK, YOU CAN OVERLAY THE PUDDLES AS THE ALCOHOL WILL MOVE WITH THE ALCOHOL OF THE INKS.

<DeeDee> why don't you tell us Janet, lol

<Professor> it will still work

<Scout> Boy, this sounds complicated.

<Professor> no it's easy once you start

<ReneeZ> IT REALLY ISN'T...BUT YOU HAVE TO DO IT ONCE OR TWICE TO GET THE RHYTHM.

<Janet> yeah, even if you do put leafing pen on the felt.<g>

<ReneeZ> DON'T LET ANY OF THE WHITE OF THE CS SHOW...COVER IT ALL UP

<Scout> Is this going to be posted somewhere, so we don't forget instructions...my notes are not that great.

<beanjean> mine seems to always look smeared....maybe not enough ink?

<Janet> There's a tutorial for it at the odd-goddess booth.

<ReneeZ> NOW, THE INK HAS CREATED ITS OWN "IMPRESSION" BUT YOU'RE NOT DONE YET.

<ReneeZ> STILL WORKING QUICKLY, I DO REPLACE THE CAPS ON THE BOTTLES BUT THAT'S MY PERSONAL PREFERENCE CUZ I'M STINGY

<ReneeZ> I CREATE AN AREA TO STAMP BUT USING THE DROPPER IN THE BOTTLE THAT HAS THE RUBBING ALCOHOL AND DRIPPING IT ONTO THE INKS CS. ALCOHOL ONTOP OF ALCOHOL...GOT IT?

<Scout> OddGoddess.....I have the darndest time trying to get into her site. Most times my computer says it can't. Don't know why?

<elegant_st> got it.

<Janet> I don't know why on that.

<cak> The drops are what give it the stone look?

<Mar> Renee, no... you mean the alcohol lightens the area you're planning on stamping on later? (with what ink?)

<ReneeZ> IT ONLY TAKES A SHORT WHILE FOR THE CS TO DRY. I USE MEMORIES BUT YOU CAN USE ANY WATERPROOF INK (ANY COLOR) TO STAMP WITHIN THE AREA THAT HAS OPENED BY THE ALCOHOL DROPS.

<Janet> I don't got it, Renee. Tell it again?

<Scout> (whisper...thanks, cak)

<Professor> You can emboss on these also

<ReneeZ> IT'S THE COMBINATION OF THE KRYLON INK WITH THE TRIA INKS THAT CREATE THE POLISH STONE "LOOK".

<ReneeZ> YOU DON'T HAVE TO STAMP AN IMAGE ON TOP OF IT

<Professor> you can use it as a background

<ReneeZ> BUT, THE PAPER INSPIRATIONS COLLAGE STAMPS ARE GREAT(!) TO STAMP ONTO THE CS.

<stamp202> Oooh, I have some of those.

<ReneeZ> ALSO, IF THE INKS ARE STILL WET, YOU CAN USE ANOTHER TRIA INK (I USED A LIGHTER INK) TO OPEN THE AREA TO STAMP IN.

<frog> Scout the site works just fine.. i just checked the URL to Polished Stone Tech and gallery is http://www.odd-goddess.com/pst.htm

<ReneeZ> LORRIE ALSO POSTED THE TECHNINQUE IN RESPONSE TO AN INQUIRY ON THE RUBBERSTAMPERS LIST.

<RubberRomp> Renee, are there any samples of yours to look at?

<brenda> http://www.taxidermyauctions.com/whipperstampers/card_gallery.htm

<Scout> Will try again. Don't give up the ship and all that there stuff!

<ReneeZ> THANK YOU BRENDA....THESE ARE CARDS FROM MEMBERS OF THE HENDERSONVILLE STAMP CLUB.

<Professor> I'll be right back--gotta do something quick

<Janet> Those are beautiful.

<brenda> wwb deedee

<DeeDee> thanks:)

<ReneeZ> tHIS TECHNIQUE IS ALSO EXPLAINED ON SUZE WEINBERG'S LATEST BOOK "THE ART OF RUBBER STAMPING"

<stamp202> they are beautiful--How do you know what colors to buy?

<stamp202> I heard there are sooo many to choose from?

<Janet> I need them all.

<brenda> lol me too janet

<stamp202> Ok, gotta go buy me a lotto ticket!

<ReneeZ> OK...COLORS....THIS IS WHAT SUZE SUGGESTED...USE 2-5 COLORS...THEY ARE> YELLOW (MUST HAVE), HOT PINK (IF YOUR STORE HAS IT, BUT IT CUZ I COULDN'T GET IT FROM THE US DISTRIBUTOR OR OTHER SUPPLIERS), TURQOISE (SP?), BROWN, PURPLE AND ORANGE.

<Mar> Renee - what is the applicator makeup sponge for??

<ReneeZ> SOME PEOPLE USE THE MAKEUP SPONGE INSTEAD OF THE FELT BUT I'VE NEVER USED IT.

<Mar> thanks

<ReneeZ> THE TRICK IF YOU WANT TO STAMP AN IMAGE IS USING THE RUBBING ALCOHOL FROM THE DROPPER BOTTLE WHILE THE TRIA INKS ARE STILL WET; OTHERWISE IT WON'T WORK...ASK ME HOW I KNOW...

<Janet> I think the process black is a must have color.

<TheQueen> HOw do you know Renee? <G>

<Mar> Janet - why? I found that I had troible with dark colors.

<Mar> (trouble)

<ReneeZ> MOVING THE CARD AROUND WITH THE RUBBING ALCOHOL "OPENS" THE AREA. IT DRIES VERY QUICKLY AND THEN YOU CAN STAMP AN IMAGE WITH PERMANENT,,,AND I MEAN PERMANENT INK.

<Janet> I just like black with about any other color, like black, blue and yellow, or black, pink and green, or black and anything. I like the way it enhances the other colors.

<Mar> thanks Janet.

<Janet> (and process black, with a lotta alcohol, goes all neato bluish to me)

<ReneeZ> ONE PERSON SUGGESTED USING ONE OR TWO KRYLON COLORS AND THEN JUST THE BLACK TRIA INK

<Janet> ooo that would be pretty

<Janet> I just found the copper leafing pen, can't wait to use it

<DeeDee> is there a url for this class to see samples??

<cak> Do you find the color of the cardstock influences the outcome?

<brenda> http://www.taxidermyauctions.com/whipperstampers/card_gallery.htm

<Janet> I only used white

<DeeDee> thanks brenda

<ReneeZ> ALSO, ONE PERSON SUGGESTED APPLYING THE KRYLON INK PUDDLES, TRIA INKS AND THEN "SMOOSH" THE CS WITH ANOTHER GLOSSY CS. HAS ANYONE TRIED THIS?

<brenda> yw

<Janet> I tried that sorta kinda.

<Mar> Renee - what is the acetate for?

<Janet> put the inks inside a plastic sleeve? then put the cardstock in it, closed up the sleeve and mooshed

<Professor> back

<TheQueen> i can't get to that web page, brenda

<brenda> http://www.taxidermyauctions.com/whipperstampers/card_gallery.htm

<TheQueen> Janet, that is what i do

<brenda> make sure all of the url is up there

<ReneeZ> OH! YES! YOU CAN U SE THE ACETATE INSTEAD OF THE GLOSSY CS TO CREATE YOUR POLISH STONE BACKGROUND. THEN USE A COMPLIMENTARY CS BEHIND IT!

<Janet> It turned out neat that way, but I think, tactile-wise, I like making the mess with my felt and my alcohol

<Professor> I gotta try that

<TheQueen> brenda it is, all i have to do is click on it

<DeeDee> have trias become more readily available? where do you find them?

<Mar> Ah - that (acetate instead of cs) sounds great!!

<Janet> I did a bunch of cards, stamping my image on the acetate and layering that on top of my polished stones backgrounds.

<Professor> the thing with Tria colors is that they are all pretty cool

beanjean thinks Prof will be a star at the acetate thingie too!!!

<ReneeZ> IT REALLY LOOKS GREAT! HAVE YOU SEEN THE PURPLE BUTTERFLY CARD THAT ELLEN MADE FROM THE H'VILLE STAMP CLUB?

<Professor> Thank you BJ

<Janet> Dee Dee! What a perfect question. I know the answer!!

<Mar> YES

<deb> no but I hae some

<Janet> and Deborah, the leafs are either really thin sheets of metallic leaf, or if you get the flakes, they's a mixed bag of flakes (which look seriously cool)

<Professor> I love it!!!

<ReneeZ> I HAVEN'T SEEN AMY'S VIDEO (BUT I'VE HEARD HOW WONDERFUL IT IS) SO I WOULD SAY "YES" BUT ONLY BECAUSE THEIR PURPOSE IS THE SAME.

<ReneeZ> BYE! THANKS FOR COMING!

<cak> Thank you Renee!

<klutz> thank YOU!

<Janet> Lorrie, I dropped and then ran over an open bottle with my desk chair once. My den will never be the same

<Janet> Thank you Renee!!

<deb> OH my janet

<deb> what color?

<Janet> it was a salmon color.

<Janet> looks lovely on beige carpet

<Janet> that should work, Renee. I'm sorry I missed it.

<ReneeZ> HEY, THE WORD IS OUT THAT SIMPLE GREEN WORKS WONDERS ON ANY SURFACE AS LONG AS THE INK IS STILL WET. KEEP ONE NEARBY.

<Janet> (but I get my trias so I'm happy)

<Professor> wow--solid e-beads?

<RubberKin> Janet also if you have a dollar store nearby try some stuff called AWESOME it is supposed to work very well with certain inks

<deb> at least it wasn't RED or BLACK janet

<Janet> It's way too late, this was about six months ago. It's long dried and become a part of my life.

<Janet> I NEED that dark red the most I think. I don't have anything but the really light red.

<ReneeZ> DID YOU PUT A THROW RUG OVER IT OR A DEAD DOG?

<Janet> LOL

<deb> lol

<RubberKin> you would be surprised what will still come up...try either of the two you might get some of it up

<stamp202> Thanks Renee for the class! Bye everyone

<klutz> (Did you get the dead dog from "Taxidermyauction.com"?

<ReneeZ> G'NITE

<deb> roflol

<Janet> I trimmed a bit of the carpet out, then spilled a diet coke on the spot so it looked like temporary.

<ReneeZ> QUIK THINKING FOR THIS TIME OF NITE!

<deb> lol

<Janet> LOL

<klutz> Unfortunately, I think that way all the time :)

<deb> thanks renee

<klutz> Not quick...I meant sick!

<Janet> (sick is good. sick is one of my better skills)
