Wedding or Mothers Day Card

We made this card in class this month.  This first card I folded a little piece of lace ribbon & added it with a small flower.  It makes a nice wedding card.

This card was just colored for mothers day.

To make the dress I used a post it note over the bottom of the stamp.  With the paper covering the lower part of the stamp I inked it-took the paper off & stamped it.  Then just draw the lines for the long dress with a black marker.

This is a tissue holder.  This is what the stamp actually looks like.

Remember that the new catalog starts on June 1'st.  If there is anything you want from the old catalog be sure to get it quick!  You only have a couple days!

I you would like a copy of the new catalog mailed to you just let me know!

Dragonfly Card

We made this card in class last month.

The card base is 5 1/2 x 8 1/2 Elegant Eggplant--score in half (4 1/4)

Gold Foil is 5 1/4 x 4--I cut the solid dragonfly out of the middle of this piece.

2 1/2 x 1 1/4 Gold Foil for the greeting.

Perfect Plum 5 x 3 3/4--This piece is scored on the diagonal every inch.  Fold all the lines & sponge with the Elegant Eggplant ink.

The lacy dragonfly is cut out of Gold Glitter paper.  Mount onto the solid gold  with 2 glue dots.  One on the head & one on the body.  

Glue gold & scored layers onto the card front.  Now you can put the dragonfly on the card front with 2 dimensionals.  One under each wing.

The words were embossed using Versa Mark ink & Gold embossing powder.  I used the Paper Piercing Tool in each corner.  This just gives the card a little more "pop".

Mount unto the card front with 4 dimensionals.

The last step is to put a little dot of the Gold Dazzling Details where the lines crossed.

This card I made the same way except I scored it every 1 1/4.  Of course this one is not on the diagonal.  I just wanted to do it a different way & use different colors.   I did not put the gold foil layer on this card.  It was a lot easier & faster to make.   I like them both!

The stamp set is DRAGONFLY DREAMS & it has matching framelits!

Mount the DSP onto the Peekaboo Peach cs

Mount 1 unto the extra piece of Sky Blue cs (this is the bottom of the card front)

Mount the other onto the folded top of card.

Use the largest Stitched Shapes square framelit & a piece of Soft Sky cs.

Cut the grass out of glimmer paper.  I had the mint that was a free Sale-a-Bration item.  You could use any green card stock.

The basket is Crumb Cake cs & the ink is Peekaboo Peach.  Stamp & cut out the Easter eggs & bunny.  I colored the bunny ears & bow.  I used the Clear Wink of Stella on the ears, bow & tail.

Attach the grass to the square.

Attach the handle to the back of the basket

Use a glue dot on the lower front of the eggs & attach to the back of the basket

Use glue dots or tear & tape on the bottom of the basket & attach to the square.

Put tear & tape on the top & bottom of the back of the square.

Close the top flap of the card & attach the square to it.

Now carefully line up the bottom piece on the card front & attach the square to it.

The square is what holds the bottom of the card on.

With the card closed stamp the Happy Easter (from teeny tiny wishes) in the opening 

Open the card & stamp the "You're egg-stra special" The words were stamped using Flirty Flamingo ink.

Stamp the eggs along the bottom-Soft Sky & Flirty Flamingo ink.

Now close the card & attach the bunny to the front.

We had fun making this card in class.  Each card was a little different.  It was fun to see how everyone used their colors.
