SEPTEMBER CARD CLASS

Our projects created in this month's Card Class.

Our first card was using the Stitched Lace Die to create a beautiful lacey background for our pretty bunch of flowers to be placed onto.

We stamped flowers from the Pop of Petals stamp set in both the new Delicata Metallic Ink and Gorgeous Grape Ink and punched with the co-ordinating punch.

Add in some various punched leaves and you have a very pretty bouquet.

Finished off with a bow of the lovely Polka Dot Tulle Ribbon and a sentiment of choice.

Can you see the lovely scalloped edges on the Lace Background piece.  This die set comes with a separate die that you can use to create these scalloped sides, or you can leave straight if you wish.

Our second project used some of the Noble Peacock Specialty Designer Series Paper teamed with some Silver Foil and the Frosted Frames Dies to create this stunning.

Again, we have used the Silver Delicata Metal Ink to stamp our bauble and sentiment which is from the Christmas Gleaming Stamp Set.

It is a little hard to tell from this photo but the background white piece has also been embossed using the Subtle 3D Embossing Folder.

The bauble was finished off with a bow (sort of).  This was simply created by cutting a small piece of the Silver Metallic Edge Ribbon and tied in the middle with a small piece of White Twine.

MARCH CARD CLASS

I forgot to share my projects from my March Card Class.

I cased this card from Stampin'Up!  It turned out so pretty and all my class attendees just loved it.  It was a special request to create by one of the girls who had seen it online.

This Amazing Life stamp set is also set to retire at the end of the month.

The sentiment has been stamped in Versamark Ink and heat embossed with White Embossing Powder.   It has then been fussy cut out.

The flowers have been stamped randomly on a piece of Crumb Cake cardstock die cut with a Rectangle Stitched Framelits Die in Crumb Cake ink and then coloured with the White Watercolour pencil.

Our first card was a Circle

Easel Card using the gorgeous Timeless

Textures Stamp Set and my very favourite

Flower Shop Stamp Set.

The colours I have used are Rich

Razzleberry and Sahara Sand.

Our second project was a very simple

card using the beautiful Bloomin' Heart

Thinlits Die and a touch of

Glimmer Paper to add some glitz.

Our third project was created with the

 Party Wishes stamp set which is now being

retired.  The colours I used for this

one was Whisper White and

Island Indigo.

The cute little cupcakes have been

coloured with markers and punched with

their co-ordinating punch.  I have

also used Clear Wink of Stella to

add some extra sparkle.

FEBRUARY CARD CLASS PROJECTS

Just realised I forgot to post the projects
from last month's class.

Our first card used the gorgeous colours
of Very Vanilla, Pool Party and 
Crumb Cake.

The background has been stamped 
using the Timeless Textures Stamp Set
 from the Occasions Catalogue in 
Crumb Cake and Pool Party.

The flower is from the You've Got This 
Stamp Set from the Annual Catalogue.
  It has been stamped in Basic Black and
 water coloured with Pool Party and
 Pear Pizzazz.

Our second card was created using a
combination of the very versatile
 Going Global Stamp Set and the
Sky Is The Limit Stamp Set together
with the  Going Places Designer 
Series Paper Stack.

The Sky Is The Limit Stamp Set - which
was a FREE SALE-A-BRATION
stamp set contains the really lovely Happy
Birthday sentiment which I have been
using on a lot of my most recent cards.

Also, taking the colours from the DSP
I just love them together -
Sahara Sand, Lost Lagoon and Basic Black.

Our third card was this sweet little fancy
fold card created with the Party Wishes 
Stamp Set and co-ordinating It's My Party
DSP and Baker's Twine Combo.

I have seen quite a few of these
different cards around and I followed
the basic pattern for this card which I 
found on Pinterest Here at Patty Stamps.

a fancy fold card.  Can you guess

which one?

October Card Class

Sharing our creations from the

October Card Class.

Our first card was a case from the

Holiday Catalogue using the Holly Jolly 

Greetings Stamp Set and Co-ordinating

Framelits.

This card also used the emboss resist

technique by stamping the snowflake

with versa mark and embossing with

white embossing powder.

Using our Stampin' sponges we then

sponged firstly Soft Sky Ink lightly

all over the piece leaving some white

showing through.  To add the deeper

blue colour we sponge daubered with

Lost Lagoon ink just in the middle of

the snowflakes.

 Our second card used embossing again

to create the background on the Soft Sky

Layer this time using a clear 

embossing powder.  We have also

embossed with white embossing

powder the holly leaves which have then

been fussy cut and adhered to the

bottom of the window frame.

Supplies used:

Built for Free Using: My Stampin Blog

No embossing at all in our final card.

This time we created a fun fold card

by partially cutting a circle from our

card so that when it stands open our 

snowmen are standing up.

September Class Projects

Sharing our class projects completed in this month's classes.

We had fun using new products from the

Holiday Catalogue.

How gorgeous is the new Embellished Ornaments

Stamp Set and co-ordinating framelits.

On this card we used Old Olive to stamp

the Holly Leaves at the top of the card with our

sentiment being stamped in Real Red.

The ornament has been die cut with the

Delicate Ornaments Thinlets Dies.  A solid

ornament in Real Red and the beautiful

Filigree Ornament in Gold Foil which

has been layered over the top.

Our third project was creating a 

co-ordinating gift box with the new 

Square Pillow Box

Thinlets Dies and co-ordinating stamp set.

Again the colours we have used are 

Real Red as well as some of the DSP

 from the Merry Moments Paper Stack.

The sentiment is from the co-ordinating

A Little Something stamp set coloured

with Real Red and Old Olive Markers.

I have just discovered my photo of our 

second project has mysteriously disappeared. 

Not sure if the computer has gobbled it up

or if it was something I managed to do all 

by myself, so I will be back to share this 

card with you soon.

JUNE CLASS PROJECTS

Our first project used this really cool

technique to create this multi-colour look

which we learnt at our recent convention.

All you need are some sponge daubers

and some co-ordinating ink pads.  In this

project we used Cucumber Crush, Watermelon

Wonder and Bermuda Bay.   Using a sponge

dauber apply your inks directly to your

stamp in layers as shown in the photo

and then stamp.

Supplies used:

Our next two projects used the gorgeous

new Watercolour Wings Stamp Set to

create these beautiful butterfly images.

We also used the new Gift Bag Punch Board

to create a little gift bag to co-ordinate

with our card.

at convention.

APRIL CLASS

Wow I can't believe how fast this month

 has gone by and it is class time again this week.

This month we will be creating a very special

card for Mum for Mother's Day.

No photos to share of what we will actually

be creating as yet, but I will share a

couple of "Cards in a Box" Mother's

Day cards which I have been creating for

my latest markets.

We will be creating a card similar to these

with some extra special touches.
