I also wanted to get some input on a class I'm considering for October called "Stump Maria - Halloween Edition." Prior to class, I would ask students to suggest art supplies that they purchased but didn't know what to do with, and I would come up with Halloween themed pieces of artwork incorporating these supplies. Anyone who comes up with a suggestion that I end up using will get a $5.00 discount on the class. Anyone who comes up with a supply suggestion that I can't figure out how to use (i.e. who "stumps" me) will be able to take the class for free. Does this sound like a fun class that you would want to take? Any suggestions for refinements?
Halloween is not an Australian tradition, though trick-o'treating is starting to be evident. I don't really consider any holiday to be more or less of a creative time for me - anytime will do!
ReplyDeleteI think your idea for the class is great - I'd be there if I lived closer ..... now, to think of a supply that would stump you - I can't imagine that to be possible! :-) Ahhh, I know .... a digital supply! I know, that's not fair - you don't do digi stuff!
The class sounds great,Rinda... though we're not very big on Halloween in the UK either.My favourite holiday to create for is definately Christmas...I love anything Christmassy.
ReplyDeleteLove it! Halloween has always been my absolute favorite holiday!
ReplyDeleteNice! I too love Halloween!
ReplyDeleteI love Halloween! Your card is great! Thanks so much for joining Stampotiques designers challenge!
ReplyDeleteSounds like a really interesting idea :-)
ReplyDeleteI'm not hugely into Hallowe'en myself, I'd probably pick Christmas as my favourite because there are so many cards to be made (and likely other projects too) that while I do have a 'standard' design for most of my cards, there's plenty of scope for variety and trying out new techniques :-)
I love Halloween too, Rinda, and this past weekend I already made a little mummy candy holder. :o} I couldn't wait!
ReplyDeleteI love the concept of your class! Like Amy said, I can't imagine there's a tool (or technique) that you haven't tried and mastered! xo
Beautiful Halloween card! Thanks for joining us at SDC #12.
ReplyDeleteChristmas is probably my favorite because that's when we see most of the family all together at one time.
ReplyDeleteIt sounds like a really cool idea for a class and I'm going to be waiting now to see how it goes. I can't imagine that you'll be stumped too often!
ReplyDeleteWe don't really have a tradition of decorating for Halloween here either. Years ago I actually brought stuff home from the States and we pull it out every year.
Love this card, fab take on the sketch. Thanks for joining us at SDC x
ReplyDeleteGreat use of the sketch! I think that class sounds very cool. Good luck and thanks so much for joining us at SDC this week!
ReplyDeleteYour card is great. I've never been a big fan of Halloween for some reason. I enjoyed helping my kids create costumes, but once they grew up, my interest definitely faded.
