<Janet> I'll look for that.
<vicki> It's a big help
<Janet> Although at least with a paper casting, even if I soak it, it won't mess it up
<Janet> and I have a brand new Hobby Lobby just opened really close to my house, too
<vicki> no, but you wouldn't want a blob of paint
<kaye> i really need to play with the paper casting
<Janet> well, no.

<brenda> I USED AN OLD MAKEUP BRUSH TO JUST DUST DIFFERENT COLORS IN DIFFERENT PLACES OVER THE IMAGE
<Janet> she's just starting. (soon as I shut up)
<brenda> LOL
<brenda> THIS IS A VERY QUICK BUT VERY ELEGANT CARD
<brenda> PEOPLE SAY THAT YOU MUST HAVE TOOK HOURS TO DO IT
<brenda> BUT IT TAKES JUST A FEW MINUTES
<brenda> I USED MATTE CARDSTOCK
<brenda> AND AFTER I PUT THE POWDERS ON I USED TISSUE TO JUST BUFF THE IMAGE
<brenda> THIS SETS THE POWDER
<brenda> SOME USE A SEALER
<brenda> AND SOME DONT
<wizz> hair spray works
<brenda> ANY QUESTIONS?
<brenda> YES WIZZ
<brenda> AEROSAL TYPES
<brenda> OK DOWN TO CARD 6
<vicki> hair spray gets sticky if its humid
raven is of the sealer camp.. don't want nuthin smearing my hard work! LOL!

<brenda> RAVEN I STILL HAVE THOSE CARDS

<brenda> ACETATE
<brenda> CHEAP WHITE GLUE
<CrowFeathe> who sells those half marble thingys brenda?
<brenda> AND CHEAP WATERCOLORS
<Janet> Here's the samples> http://www.red-castle.com/gallery/bb3.htm
<brenda> JEAN I BOUGHT MINE AT A GLASS STORE
<CrowFeathe> oops wuz on the wrong page
<CrowFeathe> oh thanks
<brenda> BUT WALMARTS HAS THEM TOO
<CrowFeathe> apologies for interrupt
<brenda> THAT IS OK
<brenda> I ALSO USED LEAFING GLUE
<brenda> AND MAGIC LEAF
<brenda> I USED ZIM INK TO STAMP WITH
<brenda> BUT BRILLIANCE WILL WORK ALSO
<kaye> with do you like better and why
<kaye> which
<kaye> brilliance or zim ink
<brenda> BRILLIANCE CAUSE I CAN USE IT FOR MORE THINGS
<brenda> EASIER CLEANUP
<brenda> AND IT DSTAMPS DARK ALSO
<corebear> I'm sorry URL?
<brenda> http://www.red-castle.com/gallery/bb3.htm
<corebear> thnks!
<brenda> I DIDNT HAVE BRILLIANCE WHEN I DID THIS CLASS
<kaye> thanks
<brenda> BUT I USE BRILLIANCE FOR ALMOST EVERYTHING NOW
<brenda> SPREAD THE GLUE ON THE ACETATE
<brenda> THEN SPRINKLE A TINY BIT OF GLITTER ON THE GLUE
<brenda> THEN CRUMPLE TISSUE
<brenda> SPREAD THE TISSUE OVER THE GLUE
<brenda> LET PARTIALLY DRY
<brenda> THIS IS IMPORTANT DONT LET IT DRY COMPLETELY
<brenda> IT WILL CAUSE PROBLEMS IF YOU DO
<brenda> THEN TAKE THE WATERCOLORS AND PRY A COUPLE OR THREE COLORS OUT
<brenda> AND DROP INTO INDIVIDUAL CUPS WITH TINY BIT OF WATER
<brenda> THEN DISSOLVE WITH BRUSH
<brenda> AFTER THAT SPREAD RANDOMLY OVER THE TISSUE
<brenda> TILL YOU GET THE COLORS TO RUN LIKE YOU WANT
<brenda> TILT THE ACETATE SO IT RUNS GOOD
<brenda> THEN LET DRY AT LEAST FOR A DAY
<brenda> TAKE AN EVOLVING IMAGES TEMPLATE AND CUT A FRAME
<brenda> SPREAD LEAFING GLUE OVER IT
<brenda> LET DRYTILL TACKY
<brenda> THEN APPLY MAGIC LEAF
<brenda> THEN RUB RUB
<brenda> RUB
<brenda> TILL SMOOTH
<brenda> THEN ASSEMBLE ALL OF IT THE NEXT DAY
<brenda> BY CUTTING AROUND THE IMAGE TO FIT THE FRAME
<brenda> EASY
<brenda> ANY QUESTIONS?
<brenda> HAVE I PUT EVERYONE TO SLEEP?
<Janet> what did you cut a frame out of again?
<brenda> EVOS TEMPLATES
<Janet> not sleeping, my mind is just spinning
<brenda> HEXAGON
<vicki> the frame is cardstock?
<wizz> do I need to be careful with the surface the paper drieson.. will it pick up color
<brenda> YEP
<Janet> No, I mean what did you CUT.
<Janet> cardstock. okay
<brenda> SCISSORS
<brenda> I AM NOT SAFE WITH A KNIFE
<vicki> see, we were paying attention
<brenda> WIZZ I USE WAX PAPER TO DRY ON
<brenda> LOL
<Janet> I'm paying attention, I am just slow.<g>
<brenda> LOL
<vicki> <g>
<brenda> OK MINI BOOK
<brenda> RED TAUGHT THIS CLASS AND SO DID SEVERAL PEOPLE BEFORE HER
<brenda> BUT I WAS FOLDING IMPAIRED AND COULDNT CATCH ON TILL RED DID HER CLASS
<brenda> THE TERMS SHE TAUGHT MADE ME SEE IT
<brenda> FINALLY
<vicki> lol
<brenda> THE BOOK CAN BE ANY SIZE YOU WANT
<brenda> BUT IT IS JUST ONE SHEET FANFOLDED
<brenda> IT IS UP TO YOU
<brenda> I USED 8 1/2 BY 3 INCHES
<brenda> FOLD IN HALF THEN FAN FOLD THE SIDES INTO EACH OTHER
<brenda> THEN I USED READY TEX PAINTS SPONGED WITH A DAMP SPONGE RANDOMLY
<brenda> ALL OVER THE PAPER
<brenda> THEN I STAMPED WITH ZIM
<brenda> BUT AGAIN I HAVE TO SAY I WOULD RECOMMEND BRILLIANCE NOW
<brenda> CAUSE IT SHOWS BETTER
<brenda> SHINY LOOKING
<brenda> REAL BLACK LOOKING
<brenda> THE FRONT AND BACK IS HEAVY CARDBOARD
<brenda> AND IS COVERED WITH WALLPAPER
<kaye> http://www.red-castle.com/gallery/bb3.htm
<brenda> I USED STRING TO ATTACH THE BOOK CLOSED
<brenda> ANY QUESTIONS
<wizz> I have seen photos used for the front and back
<vicki> what are ready-tex similar to?
<brenda> NEAT IDEA WIZZ
<brenda> LUMINEIRES
<vicki> good, I have those
<wizz> lumineires... wnt to try but can't afford to get into yet
<corebear> I only have a couple colors
<Janet> I do love them.
<brenda> IT DOESNT TAKE BUT A COUPLE OF COLORS
<brenda> JUST SPONGE TWO DIFFERENT ONES
<Janet> the hard part is picking out just two or three colors
<brenda> THEY ARE AWESOME
<brenda> YEP
<brenda> TRUE
<corebear> perhaps I can find a special on them and add to my limited collection
<brenda> SPARKLE HAS THE BRILLIANCE AND JUST JHONE HAS LUMINIERES
<vicki> doesn't Jhone have a special on them?
<brenda> SPARKLE IS QUINTESSENTIALS
<brenda> YES ON LUMINIERES
<corebear> What's the special -if it is ok to ask here
<brenda> I DONT REMEMBER

<brenda> DO YOU REMEMBER?

<Janet> there's a link on there that will lead you to the Brilliance pads
<brenda> TY JANET
<corebear> Can you tell I haven't been shopping?
<Janet> (she does have the good price on them)
<brenda> SHAME COREBEAR
<Janet> can you tell I HAVE? <g>
<brenda> OK NOW THE SHRINK EARRINGS
<corebear> I have lots of $ left for the end of convention specials
Janet knows her specials.<g>
<corebear> Well not lots, but some!
<Janet> I was outta budget by Saturday afternoon.
<Janet> But I haven't slowed down shopping.
<corebear> shrink earring - alright!
<Janet> (eggs for supper for the month of March!)
<brenda> I JUST STAMPED THE SHRINK PLASTIC WITH ZIM
<corebear> lol
<brenda> THEN PAINTED PART OF THE IMAGE WITH READY TEX PAINT AFTER IT WAS SHRUNK
<Janet> Brillance would work on that, right?
<brenda> YEP
<brenda> BETTER IN FACT
<Janet> good deal!
<brenda> I NEED TO DO NEW SAMPLES WITH BRILLIANCE
<brenda> THERE THE BRILLIANCE GAL
<brenda> HEY SPARKLE
<corebear> Hi Sparkle
<sparkatlun> 'ello
<vicki> they've been talking about you sparkle
<brenda> THE BRILLIANCE WOULD SHOW UP REAL GOOD ON THE SHRINK ALSO
<brenda> CAUSE IT SHINES
<vicki> you paint after it's shrunk?
<brenda> I DID VICKIE
<brenda> BUT BECAUSE OF THE IMAGE I USED IS WHY I DID IT THAT WAY
<wizz> markers before .. better color... paints.. after.. don't crack
<brenda> MOST OF THE TIME I PAINT AHEAD OF TIME
<brenda> YOU ARE RIGHT WIZZ
<brenda> I DIDNT WANT THE SHINE TO BE LOST IN THE OVEN
<vicki> the paint would crack in heating?
<brenda> I WAS USING A GOLD COLOR
<brenda> SOMETIMES PAINTS DO
<brenda> I DONT KNOW WHICH DONT
<brenda> I USE PAINT AFTER I SHRINK
<brenda> MARKERS BEFORE OR EVEN PENCILS BEFORE
<wizz> painting front or back has different effects also
<brenda> YES
<brenda> BUT I USUALLY DO FRONT
<brenda> I AM LOUD
<brenda> ROFLOL
<vicki> how do you tell diff?
<brenda> SUBTLE
<brenda> COLORS WHEN APPLIED ON BACK
<brenda> EXCEPT SOMEONE SAID THE CLEAR IS VERY BRIGHT NO MATTER WHICH SIDE
<brenda> I HAVENT TRIED IT YET
<brenda> ANY MORE QUESTIONS?
<vicki> can you tell?, I haven't worked with shrink yet
<wizz> I have never tried any shrink but clear.. is color fun?
<Fiddy> black is awesome
<brenda> I LOVE BLACK SHRINK
<brenda> AND THE OPAQUE
<sparkatlun> what's the url?
<brenda> AND THE BEIGE
<Janet> I love the black, stamped with white. It's awesome
<brenda> http://www.red-castle.com/gallery/bb3.htm
<Fiddy> haven't tried the beige, who has that?
<brenda> I GOT MINE LOCAL FIDDY
<brenda> IT IS GORGEOUS
<Fiddy> kewl, wonder who makes it
<brenda> ESPECIALLY FOR JEWELRY
Fiddy makes a note to check the squirrrel
<brenda> I DONT REMEMBER
<brenda> BUT I CAN FIND OUT
<Fiddy> if you remember to and can do so easily, that's kewl
<brenda> IT IS LIKE A CREAM COLOR
<brenda> YES
<brenda> FLAT MARBLES
<brenda> THESE MAKE NIFTY REFRIGERATOR MAGNETS
<brenda> I USE TYPING PAPER
<corebear> easy too!
<brenda> BLACK WATER PROOF INK
<brenda> BRILLIANCE WOULD ALSO WORK
<brenda> E6000
<wizz> hint.. when you shrink your paper... Large ones... do it through a cookie cooling rack.. won't curl and stick to itself
<brenda> AND THE HALF MARBLE FLAT ON ONE SIDE
<brenda> OH NEAT IDEA WIZZ
<Janet> wow good plan, Wizz.
<brenda> STAMP THE IMAGE AND SET THE INK WITH HEAT GUN
<brenda> COLOR HOWEVER YOU WANT
<brenda> SPREAD E 6000 ON THE FLAT SIDE OF THE MARBLE THEN APPLY YOUR IMAGE CENTERING IT
<brenda> LET DRY
<brenda> THEN I TRIM THE PAPER AFTER IT IS DRY
<brenda> USE E6000 TO APPLY A MAGNET OR USE ON A CIGAR BOX
<brenda> OR FOR SMALL ONES USE IT ON A CARD
<brenda> ANY QUESTIONS
<brenda> OK THE PENDANT
<corebear> E 6000? Not familiar with that
<wizz> have a small window to shop today.. heading to Hobby Lobby to buy black shrink wrap.. bye..buy.tee hee
<corebear> I have used Diamond glaze
<brenda> IT IS A VERY STRONG GLUE
<brenda> STINKS BAD
<keribou> Brenda- if you don't have E6000- what other types of glue could you use?
<Janet> au contraire, it smells like a party :)
<brenda> MAYBE A CLEAR SILICONE GLUE
<kaye> you can use the ultimate glue
Janet sniffs spray paint too
<Fiddy> a party if yer a huffer
<brenda> WHAT IS ULTIMATE GLUE
<Janet> LOL. I love the smell of it
<kaye> it is by crafter pick
<corebear> I tried many different kinds of glues/sdhesives for these magnets and liked the Judi-Kins Diamond glaze the best
<brenda> OK
<kaye> it is a water based super glue
<brenda> NEVER SAW IT BEFORE
<brenda> OH NEAT
<Janet> I've used Crystal Lacquer too
<brenda> I LOVE WATER BASED
<kaye> you can use it in place of e6000
<brenda> EASY CLEAN UP THEN
<kaye> and it is not toxic
<corebear> same concept as Diamond Glaze
<brenda> WILL HAVE TO FIND THAT
<kaye> just like tacky glue
<brenda> TY KAYE
<kaye> wal mart
<kaye> michael's
<brenda> THE PENDANT IS ONE OF ALICIA G'S CLINK ITS

<brenda> TY

<brenda> MAKE SURE TO CLEAN THE CLINK IT WITH ALCOHOL IF YOU ARE GOING TO STAMP IT THEN EMBOSS IT
<brenda> CAUSE I MESSED MY FIRST ONE UP SKIPPIN THIS STEP
<brenda> STAMP WITH EMBOSSING INK THEN APPLY EMBOSSING POWDER
<brenda> THEN HEAT
<brenda> CAREFULLY CAUSE THE GLASS GETS VERY HOT
<brenda> AND THAT IOS IT
<brenda> IS
<brenda> ANY QUESTIONS

<Janet> (and together, wow)
<brenda> THE STAMP WITH ALL THE FACES

<brenda> I CUT THE FACES APART TO GET THEM SO THEY WOULD FIT THE MARBLES
<brenda> http://www.red-castle.com/rs/42188.htm
<brenda> THIS IS ANOTHER OF THE PLATES I USED FOR THIS
<brenda> CLASS
<vicki> what's the metal loop , the cord goes through???
