February Stamp Class

This is the month so famous for thoughts of love, whether it's thinking of those who bring warmth to your heart or a valentine for someone who is dear to you.  With this in mind, we'll not only make cards that you can use for Valentine's Day, but also any future weddings, anniversaries, or special people in your life that really deserve a special card made by you!
The Thinlits card on the top left is an adaption of one shown at Convention last year that got thousands of "Ooo's", and with good reason! Unlock the little heart on the left and it flips open to reveal a happy string of more hearts and banners, plus some arrows to direct your attention to the sentiment of your choice. Showing off the free SAB Designer papers, this truly fun and dimensional card is a show-stopper for birthdays or any memorable occasion.

The red heart box is my own creation, easily made with our Heart Framelits and distinctive black and vanilla Designer Papers.  Great for small gifts or treats, this little project is super easy to make and can even be recycled and used again for another time!

The Occasions mini catalog has some beautiful vellum papers that we'll put to good use on the lower two cards.  Both the silver and gold vellum come in stripes, dots, and heart patterns, and look so special when used here as folded flaps or sheer card pocket.  Plus, notice how wonderfully the silver and gold twine, gold washi tapes, and gold sequin trim coordinate; they are a perfect match!

January Stamp Class

With 2014 already here, it's time to check out in the new stamps, tools, and accessories from the new Occasions Mini catalog!  (If you didn't get yours yet, be sure to come to class for your free copy.)  I'm also finally highlighting the "new" In-Colors for that were introduced last year and feature a stack of Designer Printed Papers, matching Ruffle Stretch Trim, and button-like decorative Boutique Detail accents.  Of course everything coordinates together so well, as seen in the two cards on the left side.  The brand new stamps sets shown are perfectly sized to coordinate with Framelits in the Big Shot, so no fussy hand-cutting!

On the right side are two cards made with the Epic Day This and That Designer Paper, which has matching washi tape -- the latest rage in paper crafts.  We put it to good use in the card pocket and also to decorate the tag below.  Speaking of which, note that the two bottom tags are made with the brand new Topper Tag Punches, which allow you to make them any length you need and even punch the hole! And did you notice the file-folder style of the last card?  I'll show you how it's done with the Envelope Punch Board, you'll love it!

Be sure to come play with all the newest "toys"; bring a friend and save your spot(s) today!
