Can you believe it! I forgot to get pics of my Stampin' Girls! UGH, I could kick myself! However, I do have a little elf who has promised to help me remember in the future. Thank you little elf.
Anywho, here are the cards we made:
I used the new Sweater Weather Designer Series Paper in the Holiday Catalog, let me just say I love it! When I received it and was able to touch and see the true colors, I LOVED it. My pictures do not do the Designer Series Paper justice. I love all the papers in this pack, and see me ordering several more before the fall season is out.
Oh my, can you see we used the deep and luscious Burlap Ribbon? Someone asked me, what are you going to do with that? I said are you kidding me? LOTS, and here is just one way I used it so far. So Imagine you have gathered from these two pics so far we made at least one masculine card, right?
Well, I had two dear friends, one her daddy, and the other her hubby having surgery within a week of each other, and decided the Horse Frontier Stamp Set would fit the bill. And since I like how it turned out, I decided to use it for my stamp club this week as well, and I do believe all the ladies enjoyed making this card.
And being as you can't see my lovelies creatin' their "fab" cards, I will just share more detailed pics of the second card we made, and the recipe will be the last thing on this post.
I just "had" to use the new "Circle Thinlits",(pictures and ordering information below). I think it makes an absolutely fun, fun, card, no matter the occassion!
If you want to make a smaller 5 1/2 X 6" card you can just cut it out like it indicates in the instructions. "However" if you want to make a full A2 size card, you "can" do it if you cut your cardstock like a regular 4 1/2 X 5 1/2" cardstock, and slide the cardstock on the right side of the die "OVER" the top of the piece which would normally "cut", you will end up with a beautiful, and pre-scored marks right where you need them. Do you see where you have a lot more room to stamp a sentiment, and even right a note, add a small picture, etc. Genius! Wish I had that of that, but alas no, all credit goes to my fabulous Upline Patty Bennett……did I mention she is DA BOMB?!!
O.K., isn't this just perfect for a friends birthday card? I know for my gals it is! Who doesn't love the Yippee-Skippee! Stamp Set? Adorable words, and I love this one the most……lol
I love the flap is double-Sided so you can add an adorable Cupcake like this one, and a sentiment, or anthing else you want on the other side. Truly lots, and lots of possibilities with this bad boy!
Before I post all the goodies we used, be sure and remember to come back tomorrow, I haven't finished posting pics from my last card class AND the free tutorial I put together for YOU!
