Brisbane: Upcycled Aluminium Cards


At Brown Owls we love upcycling so we're very excited to have Felicity from Bearly There Creations back this year to show us how to upcycle aluminium cans into fun and interesting Christmas cards and decorations! 
 
Felicity will show how to cut down cans safely, create your own designs by hand embossing and a little cheating by using commercial embossing plates to make decorations. Each participant should leave with at least 1 card and 1 decoration, or more, as it is highly addictive. 
 
If time allows Felicity will demonstrate colouring methods as well, using alcohol inks and pens.
 
When: Sunday 9 November, 10:30am-12:30pm
Where: Brisbane Square Library, Brisbane CBD
What to bring:
- Aluminium cans, they come  in interesting colours and shapes these days, bring some favourites along to play with!
- Old scissors (not your good dressmaking or fabric ones)
- An old ball point pen for embossing
Cost: $5
RSVP: is absolutely essential by emailing brisbanebrownowls@gmail.com
