Tutorial Time - Create a Shade

I have had this product in my possession for a long time and just never used it. I went to a class at convention and they showed a lot of projects where they used create a shade and now I am hooked. This paint is awesome!

Here are the measurements for the card I show in my video:

Buttercup card base - 8 x 7 (score at 3 1/2)
Let's Get Together paper - 4 1/4 x 2 1/2, 1 1/2 x 2 1/2
Cranberry cardstock - 1 x 3 1/2
Say It In Style stamp set
Cranberry ink, waxy flax and sassy strands
Buttercup brads and button

This card design is from the new Originals Card Confidence Program. The design is called Bound Together found on page 33.

ENJOY!







Happy Stamping!

Love it! The way you showed the colors with/without the create-a-shade was neat to see. I definitely need to try this now!

Another great video and cute card! I love the pearl paint, but silly me, I've always mixed it with re-inkers, I never thought to sponge on the color first and then just paint over it ;-) TFS!

Create-a-shade looks like it really softens colors and adds the sheen to it too...now I need to add this to my wish list. Thanks for sharing Kim!
