SO...I have 2 bottles of Glimmer mist here to give away....

You have until NEXT TUESDAY, 6pm EST to post!

Each time you post with an idea...your name goes in the drawing.

What I would like to do is have you post with an idea for a topic for this class...

What can a topic be?

A topic can be from covering a card or scrapbooking technique, a technique using products in our store, or anything you want covered in ANY of the software programs!

Be as specific as possible!

What we will do with this list is.....

1. on Tuesday next week, I will draw names and pick two winners for the glimmer mst.

2. we will take the list of ideas, and between myself and some of the designers that are interested in joining in on the fun...we will plan out the calendar of events and topics!! So we can start posting ahead of time dates and times of the next events and what the topics will be!!

So many thoughts...here are a few to start with.


File conversions
Simple directions using Illustrator
uploading to the gallery, links, and inserting photos
Knk Studio welding words and artwork
using the tablets for drawing with studio or any program
Skewing
blade adjustments
stamping without smugging it
copics, colors, using and airbrush
using that finger knife thingy (sorry forgot the name)

Rhinestones
digistamping

I'm sure I'll think of other things...I don't know if I'll even be able to join in as I don't have DSL or cable...thanks for doing these though!

Hmm.
-I know I am interested in the rhinestone design, cutting and application.

-Maybe for newer people an overview of the different blade types and what they can cut for the different machines.

-Properly setting the blade in the holder (particularly KNK)

-Creating a jpg preview for file sharing.

-Adjusting for the difference in pen width from blade in the Maxx holder, since it you can just put the pen in the grip with out a holder.

I'm sure I'll come up with more. :)

I had another one, but can't remember what it was.

WOW these are all such great suggestions.

I know for me, I would love to learn more about coloring with copics. I want to color hair and adding shadows to images.

-file conversions

-node editting in KNK Studio

-uses for the foil you carry in the store

-using the iron on material

-layering vinyl

Those are just a few suggestions from me :)

ALL my suggestions have to do with CRAFT ROBO!!!!!!

How to do a print and cut using a digi on craft robo! I'm STILL stuck on that!

Also, since I have networking with my computer in my craft room and no printer hooked up to THAT one, HOW do I print out using one computer and then do the cut with another? Am I making ANY sense at all???????

MORE on coloring/painting with markers.

SIMPLE, easy to understand instructions on AI for people, like ME, who don't have a CLUE!!!! LOL A TOTAL newbie to AI.

Digi scrapbook pages/cards. Get me in the 21st century!!!!

Converting a jpeg into a cutter file (craft robo).

These are six suggestions....of MANY I have...so am I entered SIX times? :D:D:D

Congrats Ladies!!!
Shelly talked me through how to do the print and cut Michelle's way! I have to admit that it came out pretty darn close to the lines! I did have to tape the rectangle onto the scrap paper!

Thank You Michelle! It was a timely tut for me at least:oo:
Laury

Laury-I have a web cam and tried it out through facebook...just a matter of getting to a webcast that will work for me. Evenings are too hard with kids and dh, he thinks I should only spend time with him after the kids are in bed :)
I don't know if my internet connection is fast enough either! :confused:

Laury I have a web cam (found it in the closet, grandma gave it to me when I had dial up, never used it). I just have to get it hooked up but I'm not so sure about sharing (I don't always have new thing to share). Guess I could ask questions for you all. Hope to do it next time. ::( I'm leaving for Easter.

I was hoping to have a session on using the new glue film in the store...but I don't think I can host tonight...I'm too far behind after having a house full of teenagers all weekend!

Well...my goal is to get a schedule together of them....but they take a bit of prep...so I have to set aside time each week to prep...unless one of the designers hosts the demo/class one week...then I won't have to do all the prep, just host it!!

lol.

I will see if I can get enough stuff done to host one later this week....if I do, I'll post it!
