This multi- paneled card was one of the projects for my April Card Class. It starts with a piece of cardstock 12 x 12 and thru scoring and folding its finished size in 6 x 6.
I was asked if I would make a video to describe how to make one……………
Painted Blooms Thank you’s
I made a few thank you cards for my ladies last month. The focal point was the Painted Bloom DSP from Stampin’ Up! (which is about to retire) In fact this little card is a homage to a number of products that are on Stampin’ Up’s retirement list ~ I shall miss them all……………………….
Something Lacy with Blushing Bride
Today I have a card that uses a background stamp as a focal point. Something Lacy is in the Occasions mini catalog (and about to retire on June 2nd) which I heat embossed with Blushing Bride Embossing Powder.
Seasons with Sheltering Tree Stamp Set
My April card class used the Sheltering Tree stamp set ~ I used it for a double layer stamping technique but also wanted to show how the lovely set could be used for all of the seasons. While we did a summer theme in the class I made up Spring, Autumn and Winter as well.
One Tag Fits All ~ Baby Congratulations
Don’t get to make too many ‘New Baby’ cards, so when my husband asked me to make one for a co-worker who had just had their first baby I was a bit of a loss as I don’t really have much in the way of baby themed stamp sets. A closer look at my stamp shelf revealed ‘One Tag Fits All’ and it had the perfect stamp for my card.
Hello Card
During this last week I had a stamp camp where we made a covered notebook with pen and notecards. One of my ladies asked if she could come but did not want to make the covered notebook. She asked to borrow my Stampin Trimmer and worked with the supplies I had prepared for her. I was thrilled and delighted when she finished and shared with the results with the class.
Happy Birthday – dear sister
May 12th is my sister, Susie’s, birthday ~ she is 7 years younger than me and lives in the UK, so I don’t get to see too much of her. While I was always the one who followed the rules (some might say something of a fuddy duddy) she was the one who pushed the envelope and got away with it (mostly!) She is now the proud mother of 4 children and Nanna to 2 grandbabies – it amazes me that my baby sister is a grandmother!!!
Hello again …… Flower Shop by Stampin’ Up!
It is some time since I last used the Flower Shop Stamp Set ~ I was asked to make some cards and was browsing my stamp shelf for some inspiration and there is was, just perfect for the kind of card I wanted to make.
Painted Petals ……1 card…… 2 occasions……
In keeping with what is becoming a little bit of a series…….. using one card layout but showing that they can easily be used for different occasions by simply changing the sentiment. Stampin’ Up!’s wonderful variety of stamp sets makes it so easy!
