Yesterday I taught my first class at my local craft store! We made two Thomas Kinkade cards. This is the first one we did, a monochromatic card which is a simplified version/CASE of this gorgeous card by StamperSharon: Toile Christmas by StamperSharon at Splitcoaststampers Thank you so much, Sharon, for such a lovely example of how beautiful the Kinkade stamps can be when stamped in one color. The Kinkade stamps are available at Cornish Heritage Farms: http://www.cornishheritagefarms.com/index.php/cPath/368
My only addition was doing some shading with the Brilliance Pearlescent Poppy ink (which is what the image is stamped with) and a blender pen. The focal panel is up on 1/8 inch mounting tape, and the deep red organdy ribbon has a very elegant, thin gold edging. Of course, some glitter was added to the rooftops and bushes using the Sakura Quickie Glue pen. The background layer is stamped with Adirondack Earthtones Cranberry.

Where have I seen this before, must have been My Craft Room. I asked if they made their own samples and they said a customer named Linda does them.
Great job she does too, very elegant!
