I am teaching another stamping class this year at Emily's school. It is for first and second graders and I have a few of the same students as I did last year, so the pressure is on to come up with new techniques and new projects!! And to make things a little more complicated, I realized the day of the class that I was just about OUT of glue sticks, so I had to try to create 2 projects - one card and one 3D item - without using adhesive!!
So, first up was a one-layer card where were used sponging & masking. Here was my sample. (Emily already gave her sample away, otherwise I'd show you hers.)
And our 3D project was a covered notebook. I told the kids they can use it to practice their spelling words. (I bet they loved that!!!) Again this was my sample, but I promise to share Emily's samples in future weeks!! We used the collaging technique where we layered lots of stamps in different colors on top of each other, and then we added some sponging.
I don't have any plans for this week yet, but I do know I will have glue sticks by then, so chances are it will be more than one-layer this week. If you have any good ideas, please let me know!! I have 5 more weeks of projects to figure out!! :)
