DOUBLE FLOATING POP UP CARDS

DATE:  Sunday, April 2nd

TIME:  12:30 - 2:30

COST:  $20

Well here we are in April already!  We've been soooo lucky with the weather, so you'll note that I took down my "in case of snow" warning in the newsletter.  Let's hope I wasn't premature!

I've got another fun interactive card class for you.  We'll be doing one rather playful birthday card and an elegant one.  You'll get the benefit of seeing how impression plates can bring your cards to another level -- I personally love them and have a little stash (no surprise there!).

So here's our first card...


And here's the fun surprise part with the pop ups....

And our second card takes on a totally different feel...

As warned in the newsletter, the background (mirror card) has taken on some really wild colors -- photography lighting will do that. The color of the background is really a lovely, soft green.


There are currently two openings left in this class.  You'll have to sign up early as there's a lot of prep work on my end for all the components in these cards and I can't accept any sign-ups after Wednesday, 3/29.

So are you ready for another fun class?  See you soon!

Gift Bag with cards

DATE:  SUNDAY, March 19th

TIME:  12:30 - 2:30

COST:  $20

This is the one you've been so excited about learning.  We all have an occasion where a small gift is needed.  And what better way than to use your creative juices and basically no cost!  We're creating this lovely gift bag with six cards and envelopes.  The wonder of it all is it's made with one sheet of 12x12 designer paper!  Well, to be honest, you'll have to bring some coordinating color card stock to enhance your designer paper (DP) choice.  At our last class I had you bring the DP so that I could coordinate ribbon colors for you.  Wow!  You brought some incredibly lovely papers with you and I can't wait to see your projects completed with them

The following are merely examples of the bag and cards.  These were my choices of 12x12 and I simply coordinated embellishments to complete the cards.

On the above sample, I used a single sided 12x12 DP and chose to use die cut white flowers to mimic the design in the paper.

And on this one I used a double-sided DP and simply pulled the colors from it and added a die cut embellishment.

Oh the places you'll go when you start looking at your 12x12 DP in a totally different light!  It makes me want to create so many of this project.  I chose "Thank You" as my theme in both of these samples.  Who can't use a thank you card!  The recipient will be delighted with your gift.

You can always change the theme by including various occasion cards - it's your world!  

I look forward to seeing you all on the 19th.  Be sure an check the newsletter for supplies needed (extremely minimal!).
