Alcohol Ink

I have just finished a quick card for a friend of ours using one of the techniques I learnt at Ranger U, I have to say it is one of my favs as it is yet another technique you can do using the Alcohol inks but instead of using them with your applicator you watercolour with them - I know how cool is that and yes we will be teaching these techniques in our up and coming workshops so make sure you keep checking the website as as all the info will be put on there soon!

Ranger - It's been emotional

Wow what an amazing fun filled, educationally packed 3 days - it has been emotional! Today was a mix of whooooo off we go again and OMG this is the last day :(

I cannot even begin to explain how much fun we have had and how many tips, techniques and inspiration has flown around the room, oh yes you can expect some pretty spectacular workshops coming from PartiCraft soon! I cannot wait to pass on the knowledge and get you as fired up as we are!

and as promised some more pics - Bernie, Claudine, me and Dyan

and Mr Holtz and inspiration to say the least!

Ranger = Happy Days

Ok so have I come back down from cloud 9? Ummmmm No...... infact just no way, we are having so much fun and playing with so many products it is just full on all the time that coming down is just not an option, today we were playing with my second favourite product in the entire world..... Distress inks, well not just the inks, the crackle paint, the distress embossing powders etc..... oh yes happy days.

I cannot wait for tomorrow but also will not want it to end as that will be the last of the training :(

I wanted to share a few pics of us hard at....... well I can hardly say work when it is this much fun so we will say hard at play!

Off to Ranger 1 week today

OK, so I am trying, in fact really trying to curb my excitement as it is only 1 week today before Sheena and I adorn a plane to New Jersey to go to Ranger University! Yes my stomach is doing somersaults already!! Now, as many of you who know me already know, I am a huge fan of ranger products, especially the alcohol inks and there are not many crafting tools in my possession that do not get altered one way or the otherHere is a small picture of my heat tool just to prove a point!

So last night Kiehsa and I spent some quality crafting time together and made one of Ranger's Projects, a memory glass Tea light holder, I loved it the first time I saw it and really wanted to give it a go but as with everything it is always time permitting, so last night was that time and as always when I look at a project another variation pops into my head and so of course I had to make that too! (well it would be rude not to wouldn't it!?)

Also congratulations to Sally, our latest Demonstrator cannot wait to hear about your parties and see your projects etc.... and no doubt we will hear from Sheena all about your training.
