<deb> > )
<Evo> YES
<debbie_in_> go for it
<kat> HI QUEEN
<kat> I MEANT NOW
<brenda> hey queen
<kat> BUT YOU SAID IT FOR ME
<kat> OK
Evo knew whut kat meant
<brenda> hello dorie
<Dorie> Hi
<kat> THE SPOTLIGHT TECHNIQUE IS VERY QUICK AND EASY
<brenda> impressive
<kat> GREAT FOR WHEN YOU ARE IN A PINCH FOR A CARD BUT DON'T HAVE A LOT OF TIME
<kat> BASICALLY, YOU ARE CHOOSING A PARTICULAR PART OF YOUR CARD AND SPOTLIGHTING IT WITH COLOR
<kat> YOUR SPOTLIGHT CAN BE ROUND, SQUARE, OVAL, RECTANGLE, HEART, STAR, WHATEVER SHAPE YOU WANT
<kat> ANY QUESTIONS SO FAR
<brenda> nope
<kat> OK, WE WILL GO ON TO THE INDIVIDUAL CARDS
<kat> THE CREATE CARD IS THE CLOSEST TO THE SPOTLIGHT CARDS THAT I HAVE SEEN SO FAR
<kat> TONITE I USED THE EVO TEMPLATES FOR ALL THE LAYERING ON THE CARDS
<kat> AND I LOVED IT
<kat> SO QUICK AND EASY
<brenda> k
<Evo> yup,,, lol
<Dorie> what is the url for the samples
<neetzl> I have to make a Bat Mitzvah card for my niece. Which letter of STUPID GIRL do you think I should spotlight?
<kat> FIRST I STAMPED THE CREATE FROM MA VINCIS'S RELIQUARY ON WHITE CARDSTOCK WITH MEMORIES BLACK
<Evo> rofl, Neetzl!
<kat> http://www.PictureTrail.com/katsstamps
<kat> ALBUM 10
<kat> I THEN STAMPED JUST THE A ON A SCRAP OF THE WHITE CARD STOCK
<kat> I CUT EACH OUT AROUND THE OUTSIDE LINE
<brenda> did you use same type cardstock or different?
<kat> SAME BRENDA
<kat> I WILL EXPLAIN
<brenda> k
<kat> I THEN USED THE DIRECT TO PAPER METHOD ON THE A USING FRESCO TUSCAN EARTH
<kat> THE SMALL A WAS COLORED WITH A BARN RED TOMBOW MARKER
<kat> AND THE CIRCLES WITH A GREEN MARKER
<kat> FROM THERE I USED EVOS TEMPLATES TO MAKE THE 2 LAYERS BEHIND THE CREATE
<kat> I THEN LAYERED EVERYTHING ATTACHING WITH XYRON ADHESIVE
<kat> THE A WAS ATTACHED WITH DOUBLE SIDED FOAM TAPE
<kat> MOST OF THE SPOTLIGHT CARDS I HAVE SEEN WOULD HAVE STOPPED THERE.
<kat> BUT I HAVE A THING FOR EMBELLISHMENTS. I DON'T FEEL A CARD IS FINISHED TILL IT HAS SOME SORT OF EMBELLISHMENT
<kat> http://www.PictureTrail.com/katsstamps
<kat> ALBUM 10
<deb> and tomorrow's a holiday and I have to work
<kat> I TRIED THE GOLD TASSEL BUT IT WAS TOO BRITE SO I ROLLED IT ACROSS THE TUSCAN EARTH FRESCO PAD
<kat> REALLY HELPED TO PULL IT IN WITH THE REST OF THE CARD
<kat> http://www.PictureTrail.com/katsstamps
<kat> ALBUM 10 RAVEN
<kat> ANY QUESTIONS SO FAR
<deb> nope
<vicki> yes
<kat> GO AHEAD VICKI
<kat> http://www.PictureTrail.com/katsstamps
<Evo> Did you just glue the tassel on?
<kat> ALBUM 10 LIB
<kat> YES
<vicki> is it just the scan, or did you put something blue on the letter?
LiBsTeR hugs her Kat
<kat> NO IT IS THE SCAN
<vicki> ok ty
<kat> AND THE WAY THE INK INTERACTED WITH THE BLACK
<kat> IN
<kat> INK
<kat> SORRY
<kat> I USED HOT GLUE TO ATTACH THE TASSEL EVO
<kat> ANY OTHER QUESTIONS
<kat> http://www.PictureTrail.com/katsstamps
<kat> ALBUM 10 YAMA
<yamamama> ty kat
<kat> NEXT CARD
<kat> YW
<kat> ONE LITTLE FISHY
<kat> I USED THE EVO TEMPLATES A LOT ON THIS ONE
<kat> http://www.PictureTrail.com/katsstamps
<kat> ALBUM 10 JANIS
<debbie_in_> do you layer the spotlighted piece flat on the card...or is it raised like with pop dots...
<kat> IT IS RAISED DEBBIE
<debbie_in_> ty
<kat> YOU CAN DO IT FLAT IF YOU PREFER
<debbie_in_> i like raised...so just wondered
<kat> FOR THE FISH I STAMPED HIM ON DARK NAVY CARDSTOCK WITH GALAXY GOLD BRILLIANCE
<kat> http://www.PictureTrail.com/katsstamps
<kat> ALBUM 10
<kat> YOU WOULD STAMP HIM TWICE
<kat> BY THE WAY THE LITTLE FISHY IS FROM gg designs
<yamamama> cool cards kat
<kat> I THEN USED EVO'S SMALLEST TEMPLATE IN THE RECTANGLES TO CUT OUT THE PART OF THE FISH THAT I WANTED TO SPOTLIGHT
<kat> THANKS YAMA
<kat> I STAMPED THE FISH ON SCRAP PAPER TO MAKE A MASK FOR THE PARTS THAT I COLORED
<kat> I LAYED THE MASK OVER THE SPOTLIGHT PART AND APPLIED VERSAMARK INK
<kat> DIRECT FROM THE PAD
<kat> I THEN USED PEARL EX INTERFERENCE GREEN, BLUE AND VIOLET OVER THE VERSAMARK
<kat> AND BRUSHED AWAY THE EXCESS
<kat> GAVE IT THE SHIMMER I WANTED THIS CARD TO HAVE
<LiBsTeR> very nice, kat
<kat> TY LIB
<cak> kat, did you seal the pe after applying?
<kat> THE LAYERING PAPER IS THE MARVY METALLIC MARKER TECHNIQUE
<kat> NO THE VERSA MARK SEEMS TO SEAL IT
<cak> great! thanks
<kat> I USED EVO'S TEMPLATES TO CUT THE LAYERS AND ONCE AGAIN LAYERED USING XYRON ADHESIVE
<kat> THE SPOTLIGHT PART IS ATTACHED WITH DOUBLE SIDED FOAM TAPE WHICH RAISES IT UP FROM THE SURFACE
<kat> AGAIN IT JUST HAD TO HAVE AN EMBELLISHMENT AND SEA SHELLS SEEMED VERY APPROPRIATE
<kat> ANY QUESTIONS
<kat> IF I AM GOING TOO FAST LET ME KNOW
<neetzl> What is the marvy metallic marker technique?
<brenda> you are doing fine
<LiBsTeR> no, I think just right, Kat
<kat> YOU USE MARVY METALLIC MARKERS AND APPLY PUDDLES ON GLOSSY CARDSTOCK
<vicki> that marvy background is beautiful, kat
<kat> LAY THE PAPER BETWEEN THE LAYERS OF AN ACETATE REPORT COVER AND SMOOSH THE INKS AROUND
<kat> IT IS A LOVELY TECHNIQUE
<kat> AND FUN TO DO
<kat> A LITTLE MESSY IF YOUR NOT CAREFUL THOUGH
<kat> SOMETIMES YOU CAN GET ANOTHER SHEET OUT BY SLIPPING IN ANOTHER SHEET AFTER THE FIRST ONE IS REMOVED
<kat> ANY QUESTIONS ON THE MARVY METALLIC MARKER TECHNIQUE
<kat> ON TO THE FLORAL OVAL CARD
<kat> AGAIN I USED THE EVO TEMPLATES TO CUT ALL LAYERS ON THIS CARD
<neetzl> TY. It's beautiful.
<kat> TY
<spinz> my favorite!
<kat> TY
<kat> I STAMPED THE FLORAL OVAL ON WHITE CARD STOCK USING
<brenda> nope
<neetzl> You have a black outline around the spotlight part. Did you also do that on the fish card?
<kat> ON THE FISH IT IS THE MARVY METALLIC PAPER AROUND THE SPOTLIGHT
<kat> ON THIS ONE IT IS NAVY
<kat> THE FLORAL OVAL IS FROM gg designs
<kat> I STAMPED IT USING OLIVE GREEN FRESCO
<kat> I JUST LOVE THE FRESCO COLORS AND LOOK
<kat> I STAMPED IT TWICE
<kat> I THEN USED THE EVO TEMPLATES TO CUT OUT THE OVAL AND THE SPOTLIGHT
<kat> THE TEMPLATES MADE IT VERY EASY BECAUSE YOU CAN SEE THROUGH THEM TO DECIDE WHICH PART YOU WANT TO SPOTLIGHT
<LiBsTeR> oh, cool!
<debbie_in_> yes they do...love my evo templates
<kat> I THEN USED A DOVE BLENDER AND MARKERS TO COLOR THE SPOTLIGHT
<kat> I JUST TOUCH THE TIP OF THE BLENDER ON THE MARKER TO PICK UP THE INK
<Evo> whups, sorry, y'all gotta go... Mother is on phone
<Evo> :{/
<debbie_in_> bye ellen
<kat> THANKS FOR COMING EVO AND FOR SPONSERING THE CLASS
<kat> BYE
<LiBsTeR> bye Evo!!!
<brenda> great class kat
<Evo> Have fun...!
<kat> THANKS BRENDA
<LiBsTeR> How do you decide which part to spotlight?
<kat> I THEN USED LIQUID APPLIQUE ON THE CENTER OF THE FLOWERS
<brenda> i want to try this with a thank you card
<cak> Night evo
Evo sez when 87 yr old mother calls, evo listens
<Janis> I just looked at the fish. Were all 3 parts raised with foam tape?
<Evo> nite...
<MomCat-afk> hope she is okay
<keribou> night y'all I have an early day tomorrow- thanks Kat
<MomCat-afk> bye evo
<kat> I CHOSE PARTS THAT I COULD COLOR EASILY
<Evo> good class, Kat!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
<kat> THANKS HEATHER
<spinz> lotsa good ideas kat
<kat> THANKS EVO
<Evo> nite...
<kat> THEN I APPLIED FINE GLITTER TO THE LIQUID APPLIQUE
<brenda> glitter to liquid applique
<kat> YES IT STICKS
<spinz> too much is never enuf<g
<brenda> now that is something i havent tried yet
<kat> ON THE MAIN FLORAL OVAL I MADE A MASK AND STIPPLED SKY BLUE COLORBOX AROUND THE OVAL
<kat> IT REALLY NEEDED SOME COLOR I THOUGH
<vicki> does the liq ap rise by itself, or you have to heat it?
<kat> LAYERED AND ATTACHED THE BOW
<LiBsTeR> that was a good choice, Kat-really makesit stand out
<kat> YOU HAVE TO HEAT THE LIQUID APPLIQUE
<kat> THANKS LIB
<kat> AND APPLY THE GLITTER AS SOON AS YOUR DONE HEATING
<kat> ANY QUESTION
<kat> OR IDEAS
<kat> FOR UNIQUE SPOTLIGHTING
<Janis> Were all 3 parts of the fish raised with foam tape?
<kat> NO JUST THE SPOTLIGHT PART JANIS
<Janis> thanks
<kat> IF YOU HAVEN'T TRIED EVO'S TEMPLATES, YOU MUST
<kat> YOU WILL LOVE THEM
<debbie_in_> but you will need all evo's templates
<LiBsTeR> I haven't ever seen them before
<LiBsTeR> they sound interesting
<debbie_in_> they are like a potato chip...you cannot just have one
<kat> I HAVE ALWAYS USED MY FISKARS CUTTER BUT THERE ARE TIMES WHEN YOU JUST CAN'T GET IT EVEN
<spinz> arrrrrrrrgh...not all at the same time!!!
<debbie_in_> you want them all...and the in betweenies too
<kat> YOU ARE RIGHT DEBBIE
<kat> I WAS THINKING ABOUT THE BETWEENIES TONITE

<kat> YOU WILL ALL HAVE TIME TO WHIP ONE OF THESE OUT FOR MOTHER'S DAY
<debbie_in_> yes the create card was very neato...the floral was very elegant...
<vicki> kat, how did you find cardstock the same color as fresco on the floral?
<kat> I JUST HAPPENED TO HAVE IT VICKI

<LiBsTeR> Sorry I was late, Kat- one of those days
<kat> that's ok lib
<kat> we all have those days
<kat> mine was yesterday
<debbie_in_> yes we do...
LiBsTeR hugs Kat
<MomCat-afk> When I don't have cardstock the right color - I make it. DTP on white cardstock
<LiBsTeR> Well, your class was great
<cak> I bet you could spotlight an area by adhering those tiny clear beads over the spot
<kat> good idea mc
<debbie_in_> me too momcat
<kat> that would be cool cak
<kat> i will have to try that
<cak> or how about spotlight with some acetate technique?
<debbie_in_> oh neat cak
<kat> you are full of ideas cak
<debbie_in_> I love the acetate pieces
<kat> keep going
<brenda> wow cak
<cak> (that I suggest everyone *else* do)
<LiBsTeR> I don't know anything about acetate
<kat> lol
<debbie_in_> oh lib...where have you been
<kat> there are a lot of techniques you can do with acetate lib
<LiBsTeR> carving in my dark cave
<LiBsTeR> LOL
<cak> I was just trying to think of all the techniques we use for whole cards--all entirely appropriate for spotlighting
<MomCat-afk> or clear glitter like somebody Jhone? taught
<debbie_in_> acetate is the most awesome look and so easy
<cak> yes Mom-Cat!
<debbie_in_> brenda made me go buy fff to do acetate with...she twisted my arm thru the puter
<cak> how about a vellum cover over everything except your spolighted spot?
<kat> hi c lion
<brenda> hey clion
<MomCat-afk> C_Lion!!!
<April> hi Cindy..!
<cak> or one of brenda's famous half-marbles?
<vicki> brenda is good at that
<C_Lion> hi everone
<brenda> lol
<brenda> ty
<kat> wow cak you should have taught this class
<cak> LOL--you'd better be kidding!
<brenda> no
<MomCat-afk> then she woulda had to make samples
<cak> (I'm good with theory--actual stamping??? Nope)
<brenda> this is what is a good class
<brenda> cause it inspires more ideas
<MomCat-afk> ideas are more fun if you don't have to make the samples
<C_Lion> url?
<debbie_in_> oh I bought some of those translucent green bingo chips...now what was I supposed to use them for
<kat> http://www.PictureTrail.com/katsstamps
<MomCat-afk> for some of us, anyway
<kat> album 10

<vicki> debbie, you can spotlight with them
<MomCat-afk> debbie, bubbles in an underwater scene?
<kat> you saw that on carol duvall
<spinz> gonna go bkmrk the pictures
<debbie_in_> thats what I thought...yeah I saw it...and bought it...and then was not sure what to do with it
<vicki> yes, they used it on a clay pin
<debbie_in_> story of my life...LOL
<kat> the torso pin
<debbie_in_> I really need a playmate here...y'all just don't know what you are missing...not living closer to me...LOL
<deb> lol

<brenda> yes we do debbie
<kat> me too debbie
<debbie_in_> I find things everyday...that I lost
<brenda> wish we lived closer together
<cak> umm--you could also stamp something on both the front and the inside of a card, color the inside one and cut a window on the front so reveal the coloring?
<LiBsTeR> I have to go, I am really tired, up since 5 am, and it is 11 here
<MomCat-afk> night, Lib
