There are several new and not-so-new techniques that I want to try. So recently I started a Word document to keep tract. Maybe when I'm having scrapper's block OR don't have something I feel I should be working on I can play a little! Do you have any techniques that you would like to try? Here's my list so far:

1. Using metal stamps on chipboard and then rubbing the indents with paint.
2. Printing transparency in shades with maybe a letter or word in “white” and placing over B&W photos.
3. Print large dingbat font of flower or other shape and cut out.
4. Die cut letters (or shapes) from double sided adhesive sheets and emboss or cover with fine glitter.
5. Sand patterned paper with a thick object underneath (frame, flower, etc) to produce that pattern.

Love this idea - hmmmm, off the top of my head:

- make flowers our of felt (via article in june Memory Makers, pg. 72)
- create my own foam stamps using craft foam sheets & a printer
- love the idea of using a large dingbat as an accent too
- use my "deco" scissors (I'll have to dig them out of storage)
- love the look of pleated ribbon - must try this (pg. 58, SB answers)

I will have to keep thinking about this

Brianna, remember talking about this on the phone the other day? I wanted to find the thread and BTT so we would remember what we had listed.

I've got all kinds of fun stuff to play with @ the crop on Tuesday. Looking forward to finally trying these things out.
