July Techniques Stamp Class

As we continue to try out all the new stamps, dies, and papers from the new Annual Catalog, I created these cards that are "a step up" from the norm, and love them!  Each one seems to really showcase the stamp design and will be hard to give away, so you'll want to consider making more than one just for yourself!

The upper left card features the new Medium Daisy Punch and Daisy Lane stamp set, which can be doubled up over the existing Daisy Punch to give you this fun, full flower!  But pull the ribbon tab, and you'll get an extra surprise layer as the front flap flips "magically" open! Green ferns complete the flower and background, as well as add to the blank inside card (not shown) where you can add whatever personal message you wish.

The new Magnolia Lane Bundle is already a show-stopping stamp and die set, but once it's put into this Diamond Easel card, it's really special! Stamping Blends are used to (easily!) ink up the large bloom and leaves in a watercolor fashion, which is set against Tin Tile embossing and a pretty sheer bow. But opening the card reveals a coordinating dimensional flower that is also die cut and then sponged, perfect for holding up the point in "easel" fashion for display!  Multiple sentiments are possible and will be available for the inside of this truly gorgeous  5 1/2" square card.

The bottom card has a fun tulle shaker window, which might look rather complicated but is actually the easiest card of the bunch to make.  Glittery sequins and mica flakes "float" in the window along with tiny die cut butterflies for a unique effect.  Another beautiful sheet of Perennial Essence Designer Paper dictates the dramatic color scheme, but you can imagine that this design would also be fun in bright summery colors too!

As with all of my Techniques Classes, all measurements and instructions are printed for you so that you can duplicate these very special cards yourself again at home.  Save the date and bring a stamping buddy, you'll love it!
