March Class and Club Photos

These are the cards we made last month...


This one was inspired by PaperandRibbons on Flicker...I was unable to trace it back further....It used different butterflies and I added the Soft Sky seam binding ribbon and interior greeting. The acetate folds around the back of the Soft Sky base and is adhered with sticky strip. It is stamped with Whisper White StazOn ink and heated with the heat tool to prevent smearing.  The "Happy Birthday" is stamped in Whisper White craft ink and embossed with clear embossing powder.

This card was inspired by the colors of club member Shari Vick's new bedroom decor in combination with Julie Kettlewell's card design.


This card is very close to a card by Lee Conrey. I changed the color (from yellow to pink). I also just popped the entire cupcake on dimensionals so there'd be less to cut. I put an extra flat piece of Melon Mambo behind the bottom fringe so that the white would be more hidden.

The final card is just a double gatefold....Most chose to fold it the other way and put the polka dot on the inside...I think it looks best that way too, but I didn't want to redo mine because there might not have been enough paper for everyone to use Pistachio Pudding at class if I had.

You make a tiny mark at 2-3/4 on each side and cut from the 4 inch score to it at a diagonal and on the other side from the 8 inch vertical score toward the 2-3/4 mark at a diagonal.  The pieces that are cut off are glued to the front and inside on the fold (where you see my finger).
