August Technique and Fancy Folds Class

Oooh, don't we all just love new stamps, dies, and paper!  After last month's "mass production" mode with the SAS to build up our supplies of cards, it seems appropriate to include more impact with details for the cards this month.  Warning: these will be harder to give away, so you may want to make up more like them for yourself to keep!  Good thing that all of the cards only have more steps but are not difficult to make  (really!), and since this is a Technique/Fancy Fold class, you will have the printed instructions to do this easily! 

The birthday card with party hats and popsicles on the front is perfect for summer, using the Sweet Ice Cream set, plus it's an interactive-motion gift card holder!  When the top flap is pulled up, the inner section slides up and your gift card or paper money is presented! This time, I used the Ice Cream Cone punch to create party hats instead of the ice cream cone, just for fun and variety! The popsicle and its stick use combinations of older punches, just to show you how easy it is to avoid fussy cutting when you collect the tools as they're available. Punches and dies are so useful!

The Sweet as a Peach Bundle is another theme that's an icon of summer, when we can enjoy this beautifully tasty fruit in all its glory!  Note how this Spanner Card has three parts or layers for extra fun and drama, plus you have lots of choices in whether to use the coordinating You're a Peach Designer Paper for your images and die cuts, or to just stamp them yourself.   

The Plentiful Plants Bundle is one that I've been itching to try out, and I love the lush greenery that it gives to this card.  If you look carefully, this time all of the plants and pots are die cuts from the patterned Bloom Where You're Planted Designer Paper or just plain solid cardstock, rather than being stamped (which you could also do).  The only stamping is for the words and the leafy branch on the inside.  Just glue the plant parts together, add the patterned backgrounds, and you're done!  Doesn't it look fancy!

July Stamp-A-Stack!

With all the new Annual Catalog stamps, dies, and other goodies to try out, PLUS the Designer Paper Sale going on this month, it's a great time to come for a Stamp-A-Stack (SAS) where you can make 12 cards for $24, or less! (See below)  To provide more variety in the designs, note how some of the cards can have an altered orientation (portrait/landscape), right or left arrangements, and that different colors are included in each Design Choice. With so many choices and not too many assembly steps, this is a must-attend event!

• All materials are provided, however it is recommended that you bring a roller type adhesive for neatness, speed, and permanence.
• To greatly speed up assembly (and avoid sharing my one machine) please bring your (Big Shot) die cutting machine (and brush/sponge) for your own use if you have one. 
• 
  To glue delicate thin die-cuts, a liquid adhesive such as a Fine Tip Glue Pen or Multipurpose Glue  (green tube) is recommended.  
• Alternate word/sentiment choices will be available.
•  Two dates are offered with a minimum of 2 people attending each session (see dates below). 

DESIGN CHOICES:

• #1 = Expressions in Ink: Polished Pink and Pale Papaya flowers with gold accents. 
• #2 = Hand Penned: scallop framed painted flower "floats" over two patterned paper sections, words are stamped on inside card below. Colors = Highland Heather, Misty Moonlight, Pale Papaya, Blushing Bride. 
• #3 = Meadow Dies: Rococo Rose, Seaside Spray, and Black/White designs, each with a different wildflower silhouette and embossed textures. 

STAMPING OPTIONS:

A: Make 12 cards in 1 Design Choice

B: Make 6 + 6 cards in 2 Design Choices

C: Make 4+ 8 cards in 2 Design Choices

D: Make 4 + 4 + 4 cards in 3 Design Choices

Use Host Code = EF2HWXSC  to order SU directly online to get your credit.

(Each Add-On set of 3 cards = $6.00)

We ask that all attendees be vaccinated (or have lab test confirmation of COVID antibodies). 

You will be physically distanced as much as possible but may have to share an area if making a common design, so you may wear a mask or not, your preference.

* Other dates/times may be possible if 2 or more attend.
