April Kit Class Cards

Last night was our April Kit Class, I create 5 different cards for the ladies, cut and provide all of the supplies needed to make three of each of the 5 cards.  When they are finished, they have 15 cards and it only costs them $15 or the class is FREE with a $25 order.

We had a smaller than usual turnout last night but that didn't stop us from having a wonderful time.  We stamped, laughed and enjoyed ourselves so much!  If you would like to join us and live in the area, contact me and get on the list.  We have a great time, the cards are pretty, simple and nice.

Here are the cards:
 The Birthday Wishes card used the Butterfly Basics stamp set (#138816).  The base was Crumb Cake with a Mossy Meadow layer.  We stamped the fern leaf three times but only inked it once to create this card.  The twine accent really finished the card.


 The Hello Friend card uses the soon to be retired Six Sided Sampler (#130956) and also the stamp set Gorgeous Grunge (#130517).  The base is Lost Lagoon with a Whisper White Layer.  The Hexagon Punch was used and the Bold Butterfly Thinlet.  I am going to be sorry to see the Lost Lagoon cardstock and ink retire as well as the Hexagon Punch and Six Sided Sampler stamp set.
The Congrats card was a piece of cake to make, ever wonder what to do with Washi Tape?  Wonder no more, this is the perfect way to add a little something different to your cards.  The stamp set is Party Pants.  Cardstock is Tangelo Twist with a Whisper White layer, just run the white through your Big Shot using the Stylish Stripes Embossing Folder.  Just follow the lines from the embossing folder to get perfect alignment of your Washi Tape.  The Tangelo Twist cardstock and Stylish Stripes Embossing Folder will be retiring on May 31.

 The Grad Card I just love how it turned out!!  Using the B.Y.O.P. stamp set on a Black Base with Tip Top Taupe Layer.  The Cherry Cobbler, Whisper White and Pacific Point stripes are punched with the Banner Triple Punch, embossed with the Decorative Dots Embossing Folder then punched on one end with the small star punch and attached to the card using dimensions.
Ice Cream Card looks good enough to eat!!  What little girl wouldn't love to receive this card for their special day?!  The card base is Soft Suede with a Blushing Bride Layer and the ice cream cone and sentiment is stamped on Whisper White cardstock.  The Chocolate Chip, Very Vanilla and Blushing Bride ice cream are attached to the card with the Very Vanilla and Blushing Bride being attached with dimensions.

April Paper Pumpkin

I recently just subscribed to Stampin' Up! Paper Pumpkin and received my first kit in the mail this past Friday.  It arrived in my mailbox, and it was just Christmas!!  I didn't have time to dig into it but I did open the box!!  This weekend, our plans didn't quite go as plan and so I spent the rainy afternoon in my stamping studio making the April Paper Pumpkin kit.

 Here is the cute Spring Wreath that was the whole idea of the kit.  Then my imagination started and I came up with the following cards with all of the extra supplies that they send in the kit.  The April kit also included a free stamp set, this was a fun project!!
 We all need birthday cards, the ribbon is cotton and was perfect to stamp on using Memento Ink.
 The extra leaves (and there are alot) worked perfect for adding a cute leaf bottom border.
 All I had to add was the card base in Maurina Mist, the Designer Paper and stamp the flower and sentiment which came with the kit.
 Another cute card, only this time I stamped off and created a bouquet of flowers.  Love it!
 This card would work great for just about any occasion.
 I love this card, it was so easy!  I love the water color look which seems to be all the trend right now.  I also have just the person that I am going to send this to.
The water color look continues, only this time, I made the flowers look like lilacs.  I like the soft colors and love how it turned out. 

So what do you think?  Leave me a message, I love to hear from you!
