April Technique Class - Foxy Oxi!

This past week were the technique classes and I was happy to share the Foxy Oxi Technique.  Such a fun and super easy technique.  The cards turned out great and it was fun to create a distressed look for our cards.  Definitely stepped out of our comfort zones with this one.

Here are the cards:

Foxy Oxi - April Technique Class

Foxy Oxi! Doesn't that sound like fun?!!  The technique for April is called just that!  Foxy Oxi will create a neat distressed looking background by using something so simple as Oxi Clean, you might even have some in your laundry room already!

Here is one of the cards that we will be making.  Isn't it lovely?!!  I used this technique on a piece of Very Vanilla cardstock and after it had dried (which I speeded up by using my Heat Gun), I stamped the flower image.  I love how it turned out!!

This class is available in person twice in April; Monday, April 11 or Wednesday, April 13 for anyone in the Neillsville area.

GOOD NEWS!! This class is also available as a Class by Mail!

Here is what you will receive with the Class by Mail:
1.  Precut cards; Bases Card will be scored and folded, Layers, All Embellishments and Complete typed instructions instructing you on how to create and put these cards together.  The cards do not come prestamped as that is against Stampin' Up! policy, but you can substitute any stamp set that you have.
2.  There are two Technique Cards and one Fancy Fold card.
3.  This class is available by mail for the low cost of $15 (which includes postage)
4.  Class Technique Card is included in each class.  The Technique Card is like a trading card and gives you the basic instructions and a small sample.

I can take Checks or PayPal (I will send an invoice when I receive your order)

March Kit Class Cards

Here are the 5 card designs that we made for our March Kit Class.  The ladies loved the variety and how each card was so unique.

Flowering Fields Thinking of You Card:

 This card turned out so pretty, the Blackberry Bliss behind the Whisper White was the perfect color to really "set off" the Flowering Fields stamp set (SAB).  By off setting the Whisper White/Blackberry Bliss piece created a stunning look.

Stamp Sets:  Flowering Fields (SAB), Gorgeous Grunge #130517, Petite Pairs #122497
Ink:  Black Memento, Lost Lagoon, Hello Honey, Tangelo Twist Markers, Sahara Sand
Paper:  Lost Lagoon Base, Perfectly Artistic DSP Layer, Blackberry Bliss 3 3/4 x 2 3/4, Whisper White 3 1/2 x 2 3/4

Butterfly Wishes Card

 Another beautiful card, that after I finished it I instantly fell in love with it!!  So simple but it turned out so pretty.  To create the rainbow I used the stamp from the Gorgeous Grunge stamp set and three different rainbow colors.  The butterfly is adhered to the card with just a thin strip of Tomboy glue up the middle, I wanted the wings to be able to flutter.

Stamp Sets:  Butterfly Basics #138816, Work of Art #134114
Ink:  Bermuda Bay, Calypso Coral, Black, Daffodil Delight
Paper:  Bermuda Bay Base, Whisper White Layer, Black piece 3 x 3 1/2 for the Butterfly
Accessories:  Butterfly Thinlits, Bermuda Bay Sequins, Rhinestone Jewels
Balloon Celebration!!

 I loved the simplicity of this card and how pretty it turned out.  Who wouldn't want to receive this card for their birthday!  It says, "Let's Party"!!

Stamp Set:  Balloon Celebration #140675
Ink:  Bermuda Bay, Rose Red, Black
Paper:  Rose Red Base, Gold Foil 1 x 5 1/4, Whisper White 4 x 5 1/4 & 2 1/4 x 2 3/4
Bermuda Bay Scraps
Accessories:  Dimensions, Lucky Stars Embossing Folder, Balloon Punch

Hello Friend

 

Why is it that a black and white card with just a little color makes for such a beautiful card?!!  I loved how this turned out.

Stamps:  Flower Shop #130942, Hello (SAB) #141243

Ink:  Black, Real Red

Paper:  Real Red Base, Whisper White Layer, DSP Paper-Neutrals 2 x 5

Accessories:  Pansy Punch, Red Candy Dot, Dimensions

Let's Party with Cake!!

This was a fun card that involved some sponging to make the Confetti Embossing Folder really stand out. We all need birthday cards, so party on!!

Stamp Set:  Party with Cake #140672
Ink:  Tempting Turquoise, Melon Mambo, Pumpkin Pie, Black
Paper:  Tempting Turquoise Base, Whisper White Layer
Accessories:  Sponge Daubers, Confetti Embossing Folder

And there you have it!!  The cards turned out great, and were well received.  Do you like what you see?  Would you like to make these cards?  The Kit Class is available and can be ordered from me.  What you get is all of the Cardstock, Embossed Card Pieces and Embellishments to make all 15 cards.  I cannot pre-stamp the cards for you, but I have provided the Stampin' Up!

Easter Greetings & Blessings

"Wishing you all the beautiful blessings of Easter"  I really like this verse when I first seen it and am happy to share it with all of you.  Easter Blessings for new beginnings, new friendships, new hope and new happiness.  That is what I wish for everyone of my family members, friends, customers and anyone that I happen to meet along the way.

Here are a couple of Easter berry baskets that I made for my two little grandchildren.  I call them my sweethearts because they are as sweet as can be.  I see alot of my son in both of them, and it warms my heart to see them behave just the way their father did when he was that age!! 

I just love how they turned out, they are so cute!!  Happy Easter!!

Sale a Bration is Ending Soon

It has been a fun three months with my customers, I have been making card bundles for any customer that purchases a SAB qualifying order.  They are general all occasion cards, but everyone loves receiving them, and who doesn't need cards for someone special?!

 All of the cards use the Birthday Bouquet Designer Series paper, along with the Tin of Cards sentiment.  When I seen the sentiments in this set, I knew exactly what I wanted to do with them.
