Three Card Class

We will be having one more class with the Heartfelt Pop up fold, Beautiful Moments, and Timeless Tulips stamp sets.  This class has been re-scheduled for Tuesday, February 18th.   



I apologize for having to reschedule this class, but I needed to make room for another class!  Thank you for understanding!

Happy Crafting,

Heartfelt

This is the third card we will be making in our Jan/Feb card classes.  I don't send many Valentine cards but I do appreciate my friends.  This card is for all of you!


I punched the heart out of the From My Heart Specialty Designer Series papers (DSP).  I stamped and punched the white heart and then popped it up on top of the stamped arrow.  

For the inside, I created a little pop up.  I love the simplicity of this fold.  (In lieu of five for the Squash ornament, we're using two!)  Using coordinating DSP, I dressed up the pop up.


Hope you enjoyed today's share and will join us soon for a card class!

Happy Crafting,

Timeless Tulips

Today's card is one I made by CASE (copy and share everything!) from a fellow demonstrator in my upline. 

I've used the new stamp set, Timeless Tulips, using Purple Posy and Highland Heather inks.  The designer series paper is retired; but if you have the Buffalo Check background stamp, you can make your own!



This is a center Gate Fold card.  Very cute and glad to share with you!  I used the Tulip punch that coordinates with the stamp set to create the vase.  

I hope you enjoy this card and will sign up to come to one of my three classes where we will be making this card!

Happy Crafting,

Beautiful Moments

Today's share is a card I made for my upline card swap.  I really love this stamp set, Beautiful Moments.  I think you will enjoy all the sayings in it as well!

I'm using Woven Heirloom designer series papers to "dress" up the dresses!  I also used the Everyday Label punch to add the sentiment. 



We will be making this card in our Jan/Feb classes.  Be sure to sign up early!

Upcoming Classes

I'm still trying to find what days work for everyone, so bare with me.  I've got the same class scheduled three times.  Once in the evenings (if we need more evening classes, let me know!) and twice during the day.  

We have these three classes scheduled throughout the months of January and February:


  • Three Card Class using Beautiful Moments, Timeless Tulips and Heartfelt Bundle
  • Two Door Banner Class - Winter and Fall
  • Sailing Home Three Card Class
Be sure to sign up and pay attention to the date/times!  

Stay warm and happy crafting!

Three Card Class

I've just scheduled my first 2020 Card class under events.  Be sure to sign up and learn how to make this cute flap card!


I'm using the Thick Whisper White cardstock as the base and added Silver foil in the background.  I then added retired single-sided specialty foil papers.  This is a great card for a wedding, anniversary, graduation, etc.  

We will be making three cards and all supplies will be provided.  We're using the Good Morning Magnolia and Magnolia Blooms stamp sets for this class.  Class is $10.00.  We start at 6 PM and try to be done by 8 PM.  

If you cannot make this class and want a daytime/weekend class, let me know!

Happy Crafting,

Timeless Tulips

Today's share is a card I CASED from my upline/sideline during one of our Iowa swaps.  First card is the swap; second card is mine.  If this is your card, THANK YOU!  



I love this new tulip punch!  I just cut the center out and snipped the bottom straight to make my vase.  I stamped the tulips and stem on the white cardstock and then popped up the "vases."  



I didn't want to make a Mother's Day card just yet, so used the other verse in this bundle, "Get Well Soon."  This bundle is now available in our new Occasions Catalog on page 43.  If you need a catalog, stop in and see me at my store or let me know and I'll mail one to you!

Dressed to Impress Bundle

I have been playing with this die for three weeks.  Please, please, PLEASE--always open your new product (stamps, dies, punches, etc.) and make sure they work correctly.  You have 30 days to request a replacement/fix if they are not correct.

I tried this adorable purse die three times with different sandwiches.  All three times, it cut through my cardstock and designer series papers.  I notified Stampin' Up! and I received my replacement dies on the 29th.  


I made another purse using retired DSP and it was perfect!  No cut throughs. 




So remember, to take your new punch and punch with it making sure it cuts clean.  Try your stamps and coordinating dies to make sure they line up correctly!

This bundle, Dressed to Impress Bundle, is available starting today!  And if you add a little something to your order, you can earn a FREE Sale-A-Bration item, like the Kerchief Card Kit I previewed yesterday!

If your order is under $150.00, please use January's Host Code:  DTM4KX4Y.
