Our Wednesday Class

Here is a card we did in our Wednesday class here in Fort Myers.  My ladies meet the second & forth Wednesday.   We do three cards for $7.50, no other purchase required.   

This is done with our Lift Me Up stamp set and the Balloon Adventures Thinlits dies.  I have to admit this card is a CASE from Connie Stewart who is one of my Stampin' UP! Heros.  She is fabulous.  It is done in Navy Smoky Slate and Whisper White.  The Designer Paper is from the Sale-A-Bration flyer and was free with a $50 purchase.  I love love love this navy paper with the clouds.  Super cute!
If you are local and interested in attending one of our classes, just contact me, and I can give you further details.

We will be doing a 3 super cute Birthday Cards next time.  


NEW SALE-A-BRATION ITEMS ADDED!!!

Until next time....

A couple of shares

Sale-A-Bration is well underway and this first card is one of the free sets you can get with a $50 order.
Hey Chick (143331 Clear mount), (143328 Wood Mount) is the first one I got but I have not used it until now. 
I saw a card similar to this online and used what I had on hand to complete it.

The card base is black with teal mat, the top mat is done in Natural White Card Stock (retired).  The grass and sky were done with a watercolor pencil & blender pen.  The fence is stamped in Early Espresso.  The chickens were puffed out by rubbing a stylist around the back to break the fibers.  The chickens were colored with our new watercolor pencils. 

The second card was done with Hostess set Love You Lots (141801 clear) from the Annual Catalog & can only be purchased with Hostess benefits.

This card is done in Melon Mambo Black & White.  The balloons were punched from Pop of Pink Specialty Designers Series Paper.  The Ladybugs were stamped on the white paper then again on a scrap of Real Red and fussy cut I used the ribbon die from the Mini Treat bag framelits to add a little fufu used the grey watercolor pencil to add a little shadow to the ladybug.  Stamped my sentiment & inside with Melon Mambo.   I used the confetti heart punch on the inside along with a sentiment from Suite Sayings set.
Have a wonderful week, be kind and Do One Thing Today that Makes YOU Happy!

A quick share

Good Morning all!!
I am in love with the Falling in Love Suite from the Occasions Catalog.  For today share I used a pleating technique and altough the Designer Paper is from the Blooms & Bliss Suite from the Annual Catalog it still feels right with the Falling in Love Suite.  It's great how Stampin' UP! products blend together.

The colors are Sahara Sand, Sweet Sugar Plum and Whisper White.  To make the tag I used the Stitched Shapes Framelits Die (currently on Backorder).  They have become my go to shaped dies.   I used the So In Love Stamp Set for the sentiment and stamped in Sweet Sugarplum ink.  The pleate uses a 10 x 5 piece of DSP,  to get the full instructions contact me and I will sent you a copy. 
Until next time

I for one am looking forward to a better year ahead much less emotional drama and more productivity.   I wanted to ask you all to pray for the families of the victims of the Ft Lauderdale shootings, and for all the survivors who endured hours of a very tense situation.  My heart goes out to each and every one.

My Share for today is done with the So In Love Bundle including the So Detail Thinlits
and Falling in love Designers Series Paper and new 1/4" Vanilla Satin Ribbon.  The tag was die cut from out upcoming Stitched Shapes (what a great die set).  The inside sentiment is from Falling for You Stamp set. 

This card is done in Blushing Bride, Sahara Sand and Vanilla.  I stamped the front tag in Sahara Sand and the inside with Soft Sky and Sahara Sand.  The Designer paper is so soft.with colors I decided to pull in the soft sky.  Here is the product list for this card.
