Stamp-a-Stack

Two weeks ago I held my monthly card class and this month it was a stamp-a-stack. We made 4 each of 3 designs.

This card involved very little stamping at all! I chose the stripey  paper from the Washington Apple DSP and we then punched out stars in co-ordinating colours. We used the scallop edge punch along the bottom of the the DSP and added a strip of Riding Hood Red card.

Have you got  the impression that I  love the butterfly from the Great Friends set? Well I do!! I used Pink Pirouette, Regal Rose and Kiwi Kiss card and ink. We used the leaf sprig as a background stamp and used the Eyelet border punch to give a decorative edge to the Kiwi card.

For the last card, I went a little out of my comfort zone and chose brighter colours: Old Olive, Summer Sun, Ballet Blue and Pixie Pink. I just love the animals from the In the Wild stamp set. We stamped the animals and then layered them on matching squares. We used the large oval and scallop oval punches to mount the greeting.

The girls all had a great time.

Butterfly Box

First let me say sorry for being a slack blogger. I have been very busy for the past few weeks with classes and my DS James’ 4th birthday. I will be posting lots of photos over the next few days of the projects I have been making.

My first project is a butterfly box that I found at SCS. It is very pretty and I just had to make one.

I have used Baja Breeze cardstock for the base of the box and Bella Bleu DSP that I inked around the outer edge to give it definition. I stamped the butterfly from Great Friend in Baja Breeze and added the greeting from On Your Birthday.

I hope you like my butterfly box!  I had a lot of fun making it!

Cheers

Good Friend

Last weekend, I went to a team get together with my upline Kim. We had a great afternoon of chatting and making some projects. This is the card that we made.

The stamp set is called A Good Friend and it is in the new catty. We used 3 of the new In Colours of Kiwi Kiss, Tangerine Tango and Pacific Point. I really like these 3 colours together and I am sure you will see many more cards made using this colour combination. The card is is quite easy to make but if you have any questions, don't hesitate to contact me!
Have a great day.
Cheers
