February Card Class

 These are the cards we made in the last class i held.  Unfortunately, i don't have time to tell you describe how i made them because i am busy packing for the weekend, but hopefully when i get back, I will have time :).  Hope you enjoy the pictures :)  Have a great weekend everyone!

A Mix of things

I have been making all kinds of cards and these cute purses to give to some people at my work.  Unfortunately, i totally forgot to take pictures so i asked one of the ladies to take some.  So for the purses i used the top note die and the scallop die and cut a 3 3/4 in circle of dsp with the circle cutter.  For the first purse on the left i used old olive and pumpkin pie cardstock and Island Oasis dsp.  I decorated it with the Tropical Party Stamp set (clear #120081 or wood #118515) and the birthday sentiment is from Teeny Tiny Wishes #115370.  I also used the scallop oval and oval punches.  The final touch was the certainly celery ribbon for the handle.  For a full tutorial please see this blog.  The purse on the right i used so saffron cardstock and shades of Spring dsp for the purse and pixie pink cardstock for the flower.  I used the scallop oval punch and the perfect punches stamp set (clear #120516 and wood #117022).  I also used the 5-petal flower punch to make the flower and the boho blossoms punch and clear brad to finish it off.  The card was made with chocolate chip, crushed curry, garden green and very vanilla cardstock.  I used the square lattice embossing folder for the crushed curry and stamped the sentiment with Pun Fun #115054 in chocolate chip and finished the card with certainly celery ribbon.  The picture on the bottom is what my husband made to give out as thank you cards.

Thank You

I saw this card in the new summer mini and decided i had to make it.  Since i just had a baby a little over 7 weeks ago, i am in need of a few thank you cards, and I thought this would be perfect to thank my office for the lovely flower arrangement they sent me.  Now to just get it to them. :)  I used ruby red, pumpkin pie, old olive, summer sun, tempting turquoise and whisper white card stock.  I stamped the sentiment in old olive and the dotted line in ruby red.  The sentiment is from the All Holidays set (#114916).  The buttons were ones i got from a yard sale (ha ha) and the rhinestones came from walmart.  The clear brad is from SU (#113144).
