November Stamp Class and Club Thursday, November 6th at 3:30 p.m. or 6:30 p.m.

Our class will be Thursday, November 6th at either 3:30 p.m. or 6:30 p.m.

Please let me know if you are coming so that 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.



This little pardoned turkey is surprisingly quick to make....He will be pretty on Thanksgiving tables with Crushed Curry, Pumpkin Pie, Blackberry Bliss and Old Olive feathers (cut with the Feathers dies).  This would be perfect for a hostess gift with some Hershey's kisses or other little candies inside.

I've seen several of these turkeys now, but I was most inspired by Darla Watson and Mary Ellen Stites.

We'll also make this autumn Holiday Home card...

We'll use the Letterpress Winter stamp set and Snowflake card thinlit die in Pacific Point and Silver...


We'll also use the Bright and Beautiful stamp set for another card with the All Is Calm Specialty designer series paper.

Choice #1 is Bermuda Bay Tree
It is a CASE of a Stampin' Up! holiday catalog card and the color scheme of Jill Franchett



Next is Lagoon Stars and Glitter
CASE of Lizy Bataby

It is Lost Lagoon in color...I had to take the picture without the flash so that you can read the sentiment since I was photographing at night...sorry about that.


White Christmas Snowman
The Thinking of You at Christmas sentiment would be great on this card, but I couldn't decide if I'd use that sentiment for myself, so I left it blank.



Santa and Stars
This card uses MOJO336 Mojo Monday sketch from last year

Flip Flop Snowflake
This card doesn't open quite like the others, so it doesn't have a full space in which to write if that is a consideration for you.  We may also need to limit the number made of this one since it requires a lot of big shot use.


Cherry Crumb Cake Tree
This card is more rustic than the others, but I still had to include a gold star. :)

October Stamp Club and Class

Our class will be Thursday evening, October 2nd at 6:30 p.m. or Friday, October 3 at 10:30 a.m.  

Please let me know if you are coming so that 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.


We'll start with this card and end with this card, so that we can allow the crystal effects on the lamplights to dry. :)

I am not sure who originally began using the Work of Art stamp set to make lines on pumpkins made from the curvy keepsake box die.  I will credit Mary Ellen Stites http://www.pinterest.com/pin/234187249348537026/ because I really love the face on the Turkey she made, so that's my thinking. :)  My pumpkin doesn't have a face and says "give thanks", but you are welcome to use a jack o'lantern stamp from Fall Fest and to add a "Trick or Treat" sentiment of course.




We'll make this little ghosty and his pumpkin friends....The plastic ghost idea comes from Penny Litwiller via Lyssa Zwolanek.  



and finally, our first Christmas Card of the year.....A CASE of a card from Stampin' Up! demonstrator Paula Reid.

This card is just a masculine version of the one I made like this in yellow.


I CASEd this masculine beauty with only a change in sentiment, but I somehow lost the stamper's name....apologies to her.

August Club and Class August 7th at 6:30 p.m. and August 8th at 10:30 a.m.

August Stamp Club and Class will be on Thursday, August 7, at 6:30 p.m. or on Friday, August 8, at 10:30 a.m. at my home.  

$10 for 4 projects, Free for 6 month/$25 stamp club members or with a $50 order, Only $5 with a $25 order...Please let me know if you are coming and at which time, so that I can be sure to have plenty of room for everyone. :)

We'll make this card for our Blendabilities card...I really like the Venetian Crochet trim with the Lovely Lace embossing folder.  I'm not sure you can see the Dazzling Details in the center of each rose?



Hot summer colors on this Flower Fair Framelit/Flower Patch stamp set card.  I hope you all think it is fun to make this week as well.  MOJO356 made a fun sketch for this card that was quick and easy.  I saw video of our fearless leader, Shelli Gardner, stamping on the large Polka Dot folder using a mask, and I thought this was another easy option.  


For Shelli Gardner's convention presentation that demonstrators were allowed to see online, she showed a cute little nest made with our Burlap Ribbon.  I think that will be fun for class....I used a combination of Blendabilities and our regular markers to color this little Carolina Wren from the An Open Heart stamp set.  I saw coloring our Designer Series Paper with Blendabilities on a blog post from Stampin' Up! I think it is a fun way to add color to the Back to Black DSP.

July Class Projects

We made a varied batch of cards at July Class. 

 The spired flower card used Blendabilities as well as regular markers and sported a fun fold.


Pastel colors with the new Cupcake Party stamp set

Fancy Flowers Fry Box

This quick yet striking card was CASEd from Patty Bennett using different colors.  We used 5 inch long Post It notes as a maske.  She used the 5 inch wide note cards, but instead I mounted a 5 inch layer onto a 5-1/4 inch by 8 inch base.
