Girl this rocks I'll take a spot.

I need to see if I can actually FIND my glossy cardstock first. It occurs to me that I don't remember unpacking it... but I know I bought a whole package and don't think I used more than a couple sheets... it's got to be here somewhere!!!
|
I have a dumb question! LOL I do not have any glossy card stock, but do you think photo paper would work?
AnnMarie : ) |
I had been looking at some of the threads earlier and I know some of the techniques do NOT come out right on photo paper but I don't know if that is for all the techniques. You are more then welcome to play around with some and see what you come up with though! And it's not a dumb question, others have actually asked the same thing, that's how I know!!! ;)
|
I used to use glossy paper all the time and haven't for ages, I'll have to do this.
AnnMarie - I've never used photo paper, but a SS sent me a package once and said it worked great for her, she never used anything else. (I'm still using up the first package of glossy I bought so haven't tried the photo paper.) |

This is going to be a fun challenge. I think I might try the soot. I haven't done it before and I might just need to play with some fire! Good thing my DH is a firefighter huh!!! LOL! |
I don't have glossy paper either but before I bought a whole pack I was going to try my photo paper. I think I'm actually going to play with this tonight because I'm kid free and it's only 615pm. So I'm going to spend some QT crafting.

Thanks April ... I have no clue what to do yet ... I will think of something ... |
Oh, yes, I will participate! This has been really fun! I remembered in the last challenge to make a second card, so I have one for myself and one to send to the winner!
Glad to see we can use photo paper to try the techniques out. |
Add me for this one. Thanks.

I actually picked using the glossy paper (or photo paper if you don't have glossy) because I was just looking at my stack of glossy paper the other day realizing I had not used it in forever. So I thought it would be fun to get it out and do something with it.
|
Ok, I'm in. Michael's got rid of their normal glossy stuff but I found some glimmery-shimmery glossy that will work.

I think I've got everyone added!

I thought I would join this and thought WLG meant something like must be from your existing stash or something since I had never heard of it, then I read on to see it's an existing group, and now I'm trying to delete my sign up and not having any luck, only in editing - so count me out. ;( I am not a member of the WLG - but ladies - what a fun challenge!!
|
Hi April and everyone else :) This sounds like a great challenge, but I'd better skip this one for now. I'll be sure to watch for your next one though!
|
I'm going to be closing this tomorrow (Sunday 25th) and you can start posting your cards in your gallery as soon as Thursday (29th)!
I hope your all having fun playing with your glossy paper! |
How are we doing ladies? Wanted to check in with everyone and remind you all that you can start posting your cards on Thursday!!!
|
Oh man! I guess this need to be my project tonight or tomorrow. :)
|
Mine is somewhat done, but there's still something I don't like about it...
|
All right, mine is uploaded - hope you like it!

Colleen you did such a beautiful job. I'm so glad we have till Saturday to post this challenge. I plan to work on it tomorrow night. Things have been crazy busy at home the past 2 weeks.

Wow you guys are doing an amazing job. I am planning to do mine tonight. I'm sure I'll get odd looks from DH with the technique I plan to use. :)
|
These are turning out really great! I'm being bad and waiting till the last minute to put mine together. I'm wanting to do the soot but can't find a stamp I think will look good with it! I'll figure something out!
|
Yikes... I have to get this done today! Better find my glossy paper....
