LAYERED BACKGROUNDS

Too often we reach for background papers instead of stamping a background.  In this class you will learn how to combine backgrounds for more interesting and layered effects.  In creating these layered backgrounds we will use stamping, embossing, watermisting and more.  Bring class kit.

CLASS FEE: $20

NOTE:  We will not have time to make all these cards.
