More Ranger U photos…

04.07.09

Just some more shots to share from my fun at Ranger U this past weekend…

Grungeboard flourish + Shabby Shutters Distress Ink + Antique Linen Distress Stickles = Gorgeous.  The Antique Linen Distress Stickles are a new must-have.  When you smear it around and let it dry, it looks like flakes of fool's gold.  Not shiny and tacky, but very subtle and lovely…

Here is a pile of goodness.  Hero Arts and Stamper's Anonymous Tim Holtz stamps.  Yummmmmmm…

An odd shot here.  This is a cookie cutter sitting on a piece of collage paper.  I then poured in some hot UTEE from a melting pot.  Once it cooled, I ended up with a clear butterfly with a collage backing.  Fun…

And I have gotten lots of emails.  Yep, I will be sharing the techniques I learned.  I promise.  I have something up my sleeve. 🙂

And, if you are interested in the camera I used for these shots, it is a tiny cheap one that I love.  HERE is the link.  I love love love it!  It has a great macro setting.

More soon!  I am exhausted tonight.  Night!

    Love the butterfly and the other project. I hope Connie will carry these stickles too.

    I have a question. Can you reuse the cookie cutter? If so, what did you use to release from the cutter? Either way I just love the way it turned out.

    Sleep well and have sweet dreams.

  8. Hi Jennifer,

    On the first of May Tim will be in Johannesburg (South Africa) giving classes at our convention. He is the only reason I jut had to convince my husband to let me join in the workshop. I am super excited, and you just made me jump in one place looking at all you have made. Thank you, I now know I will not regret spending alot of money to be able to attend his classes. Jayme from MM will also be a teacher. Can’t wait.
    Have a great day.

  9. That butterfly is wonderful! I have to try to make one. What do you use on the butterfly to make sure the UTEE doesn´t stick to it once it is cold?
    Thank you so much for sharing your ideas. I live far away in Sweden and will probably never be able to attend either yours or Tims classes, but through your blog I get a good glimpse of them!

    I met Shari at the UK Stitches show in Feb and she said you and her were best of friends and how wonderful (and tiny) you were in real life!!! She is a really sweet and lovely too!!

    Best wishes,

  15. I just love your butterfly project. I’ve been meaning to try the cookie cutter/utee combination after watching Suze’s video awhile ago but after seeing yours with the collage paper I really want to make one. But first I have to get a butterfly cookie cutter. Thanks for sharing…you’re awesome.

  18. Welcome back – it was fun to live vicariously – Tim! How fun! The thing with his style is there are so many layers, steps, whatever, you can’t take it all in at once. thanks for sharing 🙂

  20. Jen- Thanks for sharing the Ranger U experience. I loved seeing all your projects! The Hero arts stamp with Distressed ink was my favorite. Simple- but so cool. Can’t wait to see what you have “up your sleeve”. Yes- I am envious of the Tim Holtz pic, Lucky!

  25. Thank you for all the great pics of your Ranger U experience. I can’t wait to see more and learn how to use all the cool new Ranger stuff. I bought all the new Distress Stickles at an Expo recently, and haven’t even tried them out. But now you have inspired me, thank you! Also, I just ordered the Canon camera that you love! I was in the market for a new compact camera, so thanks for the recommendation and link!!

  28. Jennifer, thank you for sharing all the great photos of your Ranger experience. It’s obvious you had a wonderful, creative, intense 3 days! We all want to take the class! Fortunately I got to see samples of all of the projects at Ranger U from Sandy and Richele who also attended Ranger U. Can’t wait to try the Antique Linen Stickles. I have all of them! The butterfly cookie cutter was so cool! Bring on the pictures.

  30. I have the Canon SD600 — a couple of generations before the one you mention, but still AWESOME. Love this camera. One day I’d love to get an SLR, but for now this one is just perfect for me!

    Ranger U is something I’ve always wanted to go to. I look forward to hearing more about your experience there.

  31. Jennifer, more, tell us more!! I’m hoping that I get your class at StampAway this year. Between you and Tim, you’re all we crafters need. Oh yes, and of course, lots of Hero Arts stamps. Thanks for sharing. Jan in Tucson

  32. LOL – I was just reading the other comments here and wanted to chime in that I HAVE ALL OF THE DISTRESS STICKLES, too! Isn’t that funny? Not that we are obsessed or that we hoard or anything, huh? Seriously, I think we all know and love Ranger products so much that when they come out with something new, we don’t just try it, we buy the whole line! Ranger and Hero Arts put out such innovative, QUALITY products that I trust them 100% of the time. I will happily buy all the goodies I can, knowing they will be top of the line and serve me well. That says A LOT about those companies, doesn’t it?

  33. please someone tell me how you get the distress inks to show up on the grungeboard. Because of the grey color, all my inks look the same??? Am I doing something wrong? I wish the grungeboard was a cream color? anyone else??’Love the photos Jennifer! thanks!!
