August Hostess Club Project

I am in looove with this month's hostess club project. I got the inspiration from Patty Bennett at Patty's Stamping Spot.

I was going to write a whole blog post about the tips and tricks to making stamps with Fun Foam and Stampin' Up!'s Thinlits and Framelits but as I was planning it I realized there was too much stuff to put in a single post. So I whipped out the camera a recorded a video.

The video is 20 minutes long, but believe me it's worth it! It is jam packed with information. I will give you the measurements and supplies here though.

July Ladies Classes

Oh my goodness! I love this month's projects! I have been wanting to use the Just Kidding stamp set for a while, but other projects pushed it out of the way. I love that set so much that I ended up purchasing 2 sets, on accident! I've never done that before.

And let me tell you the Butterfly card, this picture does not do it justice. At. All! I keep walking by it and my heart melts every time I see it. I may have to make a dozen more of this one.

Butterfly Card - this card uses a sponging technique that is fun and relaxing.

March Ladies Class Projects

Today's classes were all about the Painted Petals stamp set from the 2015 Occasions Catalog. 

The card on the left was made using Stampin' Up!s Notecards and Envelopes (131527 $5.95). The ink colors used were Garden Green (126973 $5.95), Marina Mist (126962 $5.95), Cherry Cobbler (126966 $5.95), & Memento Tuxedo Black (142708 $5.95). 

The Easter Basket was made using the Berry Basket Big Dhot Die and can be found in the 2015 Occasions Catalog. 

The card on the right was made using the Butterfly framelit which cannot be ordered at this time. They are waiting to be unloaded from one of the many ships waiting to get into the docks on the west coast. No telling how long that will take. 

The ink colors used were Crushed Curry, Pacific Point, Pear Pizzaz.
