Yes they are. I love them. Hope you come back and join us.

Morning Ladies. Sun is shinning. So maybe some of this snow will melt.

Hi,

I'm sorry not to be sending this is a pm, but for some reason, Google has tagged the mail page as being a site for malware. Anyway, I'm was just scheduled for surgery on my hand for carpal tunnel on Friday. I've been trying to finish all the swaps I signed up for that will come due while I'm recuperating, but I'm having a lot of trouble with both hands and I just can't get everything done. I really apologize, but I'm going to have to back out of this. I was really looking forward to giving this a try, and hope that, if you do it again, you'll give me another chance.

Thanks,

Blusky,
Would you add me to your brayer card list. This will be interesting as I don't use this technique much. Thanks so much.

Hi Vivian. Please sign me up for one spot. I've been eyeing this swap, but wasn't sure I could get to it. I've fulfilled my commitment to all the other swaps I've signed up for so now I can get to this one. I'm thinking that I'll be using the Ghosting Technique with VersaMark and the brayer. I'll be postal next week.

Thanks! Mika

Oh I don't know how to do that. Can't wait to see it.

ncrosarian · 02-12-2013, 04:32 PM

Here's the prototype of my brayer swap card using the ghosting technique. You stamp first with VersaMark on Glossy White cardstock, brayer over with ink, and then stamp an overlay image. A "ghostly" image will appear after you brayer. Here, I've used SU! Groovy Guava with Soft Suede and Wild Wasabi accents. The main card is embossed with the Lattice folder.

Should be postal this week. TFL!

Thanks for the update

blusky · 02-19-2013, 10:53 AM

I have to say I was shocked the other day when I went to PO. It cost almost 8.00 to mail a set of cards to canada. Wow the prices have really gone up.
