So Ruth Ann...

[gwendols]

What did you make in your Claudine Hellmuth class? I'd love to see!!

[Luanne]

I thought she had to cancel the class because of Toby?

But, if you took her class.....what did you make????

[Dani Larcom]

Nope - she didn't cancel.

[Ruth Ann Landry]

Nope, she didn't cancel...the class was fun...and Queen's Ink store is amazing...must go back...and...............Patti is hoping for a tim class in June or July!

We played with three background techniques: peeled paper, gesso texture, and vaseline resist
We also did two transfer techniques: gel medium and clear contact paper

I had played with most of these things with Dani, here at home but it was so much fun to actually meet her and spend 6 hours with her watching her work. She would come and sit with you and chit chat about almost anything....what a chatterbox she is!

I'm still not unpacked so maybe I'll show you later what I worked on, although none of the things I started are done.

[ChristyB]

unpack now Woman
We want to see!!!!

[scrappin nurse]

Yep! We wanna see Ruth Ann!

[Ruth Ann Landry]

Here is one of the things I played with...just about every technique was slapped on this: vaseline resist (twice), peeled paper, collage, gel transfer, stamped images, color wash......

[gwendols]

Ooh --- love that! You did a great job with it.

[Ruth Ann Landry]

this is another...on a stretched canvas: peeled paper background, color wash in green, various collaged images (collaged on collages LOL)....I'm not done with this one yet...Not sure where I want to go with it, but I know it's not done. I also have one textured background that I've done nothing with thus far except colorwash and highlight, and one other transfer image that I've done nothing with.

[troublesmom]

My they are gorgeous! One of these days I'll get around to trying some. The vaseline one sounds interesting.

[ChristyB]

Very cool! I am greenwith envy!

[scrappin nurse]

Wow!!! Love them Ruth Ann.

[nancine]

Love 'em... especially the bird one!

Marianne, very inspiring!! you have me totally hooked on the Gel medium transfers now---yes, it is all your fault--hehehehehehe.. I think I spent all day on sunday, just coating and burnishing, and coating and burnishing, and coating and burnishing--well you get the drift.

Oh, did I forget to say I had a lot of fun?? Well, I did.
