January 2017 Stamp Class

Brrr, it's cold outside! Happy New Year everyone and welcome to 2017!  With the new Occasions Mini Catalog starting on 1/4 and SAB to look forward to  for the next three months (a FREE SAB item with each $50 order), we have a lot to cheer about!
Our first card uses a pretty "cool" technique of stamping and embossing to get this special look of trees behind trees, plus a little snowy sparkle for fun!  So appropriate for our chilly days right now and perfect for a thank you note, get well, or to send to someone "just because".
The second card is even cheerier with bright colors and the new dragonfly die from the Occasions mini.  With just a touch of glitz and words that would fit most any occasion, it's one that card that you should make multiples of just to have on hand.

The last two cards are truly uplifting but in totally different ways.  While they each use the same new Lift Me Up stamp set, they will both bring a smile for vastly different reasons!  The balloon card would be great for just about anyone's birthday (and uses FREE printed SAB Designer Paper!), but the Melon Mambo pink card is, well, probably just for your closest female buddy! (Check out the Lift Me Up video HERE.)

I love all the cards and hope that you do too, so come on over and join us for class so that you can make yours! Free Occasions and SAB mini catalogs for all class attendees if you don't have one already!

December Techniques Stamp Class

With Christmas nearly upon us and 2016 almost at a close, it's time for one more Techniques and Fancy Folds Class that is sure to be memorable.  For a while I wasn't exactly sure what to make for this month, but finally the projects worked out and I love them all, I hope you enjoy them too!

 The top left card is Twist Gate Fold card that is so fun to make. Very different and interactive, this card is sure to be opened and closed many times not only to see how it twists around but also to look at the cute matching Designer printed papers!  What a fun base to have with many different front focal pieces that could be stamped, punched, die cut, or whatever you wish. We'll do all three here!

The Baker's Box (top right) is very easy to make with Stampin' Up die cuts and papers, and especially nice to hold small baked goodies, candy treats, or gifts such as jewelry or small toys.  Complete with stamped tissue, it can also be easily flattened after use for storage and recycling next year, because it's just too cute to toss!

Lastly, the bottom is a 2 Piece Z-Fold Card and probably the style of card that I will be giving out this year myself.  I really love how the vellum snowflake just hovers and moves when the card opens, plus the sparkly ribbon and matching papers are perfect!  While I will also make it with other paper colors and patterns, the soft coloring on this one is very peaceful, special, and retired, so you'll need to come to class if you want to make it up just like this!

As with all of my Techniques Classes, printed instructions including measurements are included with the projects. Be sure to invite a friend and save your spot!
