March Techniques & Fancy Folds Class

With the last month for Sale-A-Bration upon us soon, let's make March go out with a bang!  The Fancy Fold Cards that we'll be doing are such fun and unique, yet are actually quite easy to make!  We'll be using some more of the FREE SAB items that you can receive with each $50 order, so you'll want to be sure to note those ideas for future use.

On the top left is a Ribbon Slider Card, which has a neat little pocket with its own sliding card inside and is held neatly in place with a matching ribbon.  The construction may seem a bit tricky at first, but is simple once you know where and how to punch the holes and thread the ribbon. The front uses the rose tag die from Botanical Tags in Lovely Lipstick foil, an SAB Freebie.  (Although this is sadly no longer available due to its popularity, substituting another foil color or glimmer paper would also look fabulous.)  A pearlized doily, SAB wood leaf embellishment, and coordinating Designer Papers complete the beautiful look.

The butterfly card on the top right puts together the free SAB Botanical Butterfly Designer Papers along with the very popular Butterfly Duet Punch and coordinating Butterfly Gala stamp set. But a surprise awaits inside, where with a few cuts and scores, there is a very dimensional Bookfold pop-up unfolding! It might also be fun to have more words stamped or written on both sides, like a book, and maybe adding more stamping or printed papers along the borders.

The little elephants card on the bottom is for those sweet little ones who grow up so quickly.  Not only is the front layout just darling, but inside the four banner panels pop up when the card is opened.  These panels could be any shape (round, balloons, all animals, etc.) and arranged differently (all in a straight line, higher up, diagonally, etc.) to suit the style of the card and your artistic whims!  So simple to make, yet so versatile and creative!

As with all of my Technique Classes, printed measurements and instructions are included so that you can reproduce these fun cards at home again.  Be sure to save the date and come on over; your stamping friends are also very welcome!

CLASS DATE: Sunday, Mar. 10; 2:00 -  4:30 pm.

DEADLINE to Reply = Tuesday, Mar. 5

Class Fee = $15 or FREE with any $45 minimum order.  Better yet, take advantage of this last month to get a FREE SAB item, including the new 2nd Release items, with any $50 order; hooray!

Completed Card Set = $18 (if you miss the class or want an extra set.)

Current HOST CODE =  27ZD24GY (to use when ordering online; your total will apply towards a FREE stamp Class or receiving a hand-stamped thank you gift from me.  Your order will be shipped directly to you.)  Contact me if you have any questions.

February Stamp Class Reminder

Please note that the Deadline date to sign up for this month's Stamp Class is Tuesday, Feb. 5.  The cards are so pretty this month, you'll surely not want to miss out on making them for yourself (as inspiration!) or to give to those special people with your love!  Grab a friend and come on by!

Note that there will be a Second Release of brand new Sale-a-Bration  (SAB) items available to order on Feb. 15, which will be in addition to the current selection now.  I will have pictures and details of those items in class for you to see (and here on this blog), and we will delay the class order until then if anyone wants to take advantage of the newest offers!
