September Stamp Club and Class Thursday, September 3rd at 3:30 or 6:30 p.m.

Please let me know if you are coming and at which time, so I may cut enough projects and have enough spots around the table. 

$10, or $5 with a $25 purchase, FREE with a $50 purchase, or FREE for 6 month/$25 club members.

I wanted to try a Halloween card with an unusual color scheme.  Well, this ~really~ is different. I also think the yellow eyes are super creepy.  Remember, you can always, make the elements of this card and then use it for scrapbooking.  

On the other hand if you don't do Halloween, I will have the white craft ink out for you to put on the trees instead of the Chocolate Chip.  You would stamp white snowflakes among the branches and use the "Making Spirits Bright" sentiment stamped in Island Indigo. (You'd also not use the Daffodil Delight ribbon.)

Then, I used the MOJO Monday sketch for this week, (MOJO 412) and cut down a spider web doily to a size I preferred by taking out the middle and overlapping the edges. (It was also necessary to fold the web before each fleur de lis point.) I love the effect that creates because the web doesn't stick flat...it is more wispy.  There are 1/2 glue dots under each fleur de lis point. I colored three Jack O'Lanterns in the Happy Haunting Designer Series Paper for added spookiness. :)  A few rhinestone bling add a fun sparkle.

Our Easel of the month for September will use the Howl-O-ween Treat set with the whimsical owl.

We'll also make the birthday card with the Your Presents set that I made at Convention.

August Class and Club Thursday, August 6th at 3:30 or 6:30....

Please let me know if you are coming and at what time, so I may cut enough projects and have enough spots around the table. $10, or $5 with a $25 purchase, FREE with a $50 purchase, or FREE for 6 month/$25 club members.

First we'll make this Bleached card....I was inspired by a lovely swap card I received from Stampin Up!'s convention. It was Cherry Cobbler bleached to Very Vanilla, but it didn't have marker added. It was very pretty...Thank you unknown fellow demo!

We're going to have an Easel Card of the Month this fall and winter, so for August/September, we'll make this Fall Easel card which is a combination of the hardwood background made into a fence with my attempt at a Sunflower with the petal from the Flower Fair Framelits.  We always make cards for others, but I made this one for my desk at my part time job. :)  You can choose another sentiment of course. If you need a Get Well card, I think "Happy Healing" would look great.

Then, this lovely card which I CASE'd from my sweet friend, Paula Wright.  I love the light colors and soft look of the butterfly. 


Finally, we'll make a Treat Bag of the Cherry on Top Designer Series Paper Stack. Your bag may be made from the Balloon, Candle or Sweets pages.
