Splash.Splosh.Splat OPEN Crop.arty 2 Bring List

.

The 'TO BRING LIST' for the splash.splosh.splat { open } Crop.arty happening this 12th September 2009 at Scrap-n-Crop.com

.

Scissors & any cutter you have
{able to trim paper and fabric/canvas}

Glue
{mod podge + any craft glue + 3D dots}

Container(s) for water and brushes
{we are painting}

Heat Gun
{much appreciated if you have - otherwise we have to share the 2 we have at the Crop.Station}

Apron
{if you have or some towel/protective cover for yourself}

.

We will be attempting two projects ... so, most likely we will end at 6pm rather than 5pm, plus unlike cutting and pasting paper, the mediums used here will take longer to dry - hence, the need for extra heat guns to share, if anyone has them. :)

This is intended to be a beginner's session and the 1st or our THREE planned installments of Discovering the Artist within ourselves where we will be working with mixed-media to put together collages. As we progress, we will be 'playing' and experimenting with more techniques and combining the above techniques into our projects.
.
For those who have never dabbled into this ... well, we have deliberately chosen TWO very different looking finished projects that incorporates the same basic techniques to showcase that you can do just about anything you fancy once you have the basics.

This is also a golden opportunity to learn what all the jars and bottles of paint, paste, squirts, sprays, glimmer, glitter, liquid etc in the Scrap.Abode does!

Oh - please hurry with your registrations - limited spaces. And apologies once again, only PAID sign ups will be considered as registered. We can't 'hold' seats ... so, those that have inquired, please, please pay up to avoid disappointment ... and seriously, I can't 'hold' or 'reserve' seats. Sorry ladies.

Oh! (heh heh)
One LAST thing. I can't emphasise on aprons or protective cover enough - it can get quite messy. Look (above) at the project in progress. Thanks!
