Great news...Today I have a Quickie Tutorial to 

share with you for this card.

 I was looking back through some of Stampin' Up's previous year's Fall DSP's and came across Autumn Meadows from several years back. I love the color combination of this DSP with Taken with Teal, Early Espresso, Cajun Craze and Very Vanilla (don't quote me, but I think these are the colors). I used a similar color combo to create my husband's birthday card. 

I had seen a card out in cyberworld that had a woodgrain embossed Island Indigo panel which I loved, so used that idea for this card, dragging Soft Suede ink over the raised embossed surface to give it a distressed look and added a few sequins for a bit of pizzazz.

Yesterday I held my annual New Catalog Workshop for my stamping gals. I was going to take pictures of the day, but in all the hustle and bustle I completely forgot! I emailed one of the ladies that the Catalog Workshop is a little crazy (how could it not be with 23 of us stamping at the same time!), but always a lot of fun. The ladies that stamp with me are the part that make up the fun. Thank you to everyone who came! Sure was a fun day :-)

I'm sharing the two cards that we made along with a FREE illustrated tutorial for the card that I designed. If you'd like to access the PDF tutorial for the butterfly card above CLICK HERE, or through my Free Tutorial page.

I found and CASE'd the second card from Vicki at stampsmiles.com. How can you improve on her card design? It's perfect for showcasing the new in-colors and Mosaic Madness stamp set.

Have a great day!

 

Gift of Friendship Online Class

Today I'm excited about being able to post my newest online class tutorial, 

the Gift of Friendship class. 

My local stamping friends will be creating the Gift of Friendship card, shown above, from this class in a few weeks (March 19 and March 23 to be exact), using the addicting Faux Chalkboard technique. I love this technique, especially when used with the From the Heart stamp set. The two go together perfectly. 

The online class tutorial includes four projects for you to create: A scalloped country basket which holds a set of 3x3 decorative blank cards with envelopes and a sweet scalloped tea bag holder. This matching friendship card completes the set.

If you'd like more information on the online class tutorial, you can Click Here or click on my Tutorials for Sale button on the right of my blog.

If you're local and would like to join in my on-site class, I still have a few spots open for March 19, 7-9 PM and March 23, 2-4 PM classes. Contact me for more information.
