Here are the second batch of photos from the Clarity Open Days. I do seem to have taken a lot of Sam Crowe, a lot of them from my position at the corner of Tina Fox's table.
What that lady can do with a gel plate! Wow! She started off with just two at a time, the big one and one of the Petites, lots of inks, mainly the mini Archivals, and also the Viva Decor paints, the ones that
TaDa!
Boom!!!
From Sam, I edged my seat closer to the corner to chat with Tina, and learn how she does her beautiful parchment embroidery and beading.
Tina's work is so beautiful and distinctive. I love watching her adding colour, and embellishments in her own way, but making sure the rest of us can follow and try it out for ourselves.
Here is just a bit of her work and that of the design team.
See the rows of beautiful haematite beads, adding more bling to this one.
I believe that this sample was created by Glynis Whitehead. There are no holes on the plates for the flowers, but Glynis has adapted the design to add beads for the centres.
Karen Wheatland, Lynne Bishop and Rosalind McClellan listening and watching intently to Tina.
Not sure what Lynne was explaining so intently here.
Right, that's your lot for today. More will follow tomorrow. I want time today to play with some of my new goodies before I forget how to use them. I am looking forward to seeing lots of your pictures of your experiments after watching the experts. Have fun and have a great day. Damp outside so perfect for crafting instead.
