Cozy Comfort Virtual Retreat with Kristina Werner

I took the Altenew’s Cozy Comfort virtual retreat event that was 12 hours on October 7, 2023 with Jennifer McGuire, Kelly Taylor, Kristina Werner, Carissa Wiley & Therese Calvird. Well, I didn't do the 12 hours because they start way too early PST to me.

The second class I watched was with Kristina Werner. We made 2 cards. The first card was masking, blending and embossing. The blending was with crisp dye inks sea glass, ocean weaves & desert night then we embossed with snowy stars geometric 3D embossing folder. We also stamped with joyous sentiments sentiments set same inks the snowflakes and die cut with coordinating dies joyous sentiments, die cut an extra snowflake for a bit of dimension. Used must have gel pen silver on every dot on the embossing folder. I didn’t put a message at the time of class as I don't do winter cards for Christmas but decided to make it a New Year's card so used desert night to stamped from holiday seasons message bundle by HA


For the second card, on a layer we used sweater pattern builder stencil with crisp dye ink limestone and silver stone leaving the center very light then cut the layer down giving about 1/2” border all around before gluing down I added washi tape and then added the snowman from through the window die set. Again, at the time of class didn't add message don't even remember where it went LOL but I decided to add a label next to the washi with my New Year's message and this one was from Simon Says Stamp!

  2. Thank you Traci. the big blending brushes are great for this but the smaller brush is great for darker color on edge
