Val's Alcohol Ink Tiles

What a perfect Fall day to post this picture of one of the alcohol ink tiles Val made in a recent Memory Lane class.  Isn't it bea-u-ti-ful!!!!

She shared her work during our get together last month.  It sounded like a fantastic class.  They took just regular white ceramic square tiles from Home Depot and used alcohol inks and techniques to create these different looks.  Aren't they fantastic?!

Sure do hope they offer that class again.

Val's been a very busy crafter these last few months.  Not only does she have her toy store of a craft room nice and organized now, she's been taking lots of classes at Memory Lane and through our community adult education program learning lots of fun, new techniques.  Here's just a sampling of what she's been up to. . . .

First up her collection of absolutely wonderful watercolor cards:

Then an amazing paper glimmer-misted paper rose from one of Betty's classes:

And some cute things made with washi tape from one of Staci's classes on National Scrapbooking Day:

A faux suede technique Betty taught her - way cool!:

An adorable Z-fold card made with some cute Dazzles

And an elegant card using a Memory Box die in a clever way:
