Come to Bethlahem Brayer Card

This is a take off of a samply by Delys Cram, one of my talented demonstrators who lives in Whakatane.  She used a different technique, but I've used the layout and colors to recreate another version.

I've used a brayer and Bashful Blue here for the background for a gradual colour gradation.  I need to get that brayer out more often!

This was my first take:

And I fiddled around and tried it with another arrangement to see which one I liked best:

Because I love that Striped Satin Ribbon!  My girls couldn't decide which they liked better, so both pass the mark at my house.

I did a "naughty" and cut my star apart from my camel images.  That way I could easily stamp one in one colour, and the other in something different.  Plus, I could them place the star where I wished.

Well this one was fun and the ladies last night did well with it. We had a guest at class - my little brother!  He's here for the wedding and was a good sport and joined in.  I have a pic of him brayering on my Facebook Page.  Was fun!  We haven't had such a good laugh in a long time.  (not AT him . . . .)

Order your supplies for Christmas!

Go Delys! Yeah all the ladies in class last night thought it made the set a bit more useful. Plus, without the star, its just camels and isnt necessarily Christmas . . . . perhaps. anywya, I can use it with my Broome pics
