Have a Heart...Our January Card Class Projects

The first thing I wanted our class stampers to make for our January stamp class was a quick and easy thank you card. This required so little effort that bunches of these beauties could have been pumped out in now time. What I loved...the large vintage button in the center. To DIE for, don't you think?



Our next project was this sweet little mini card. I think it is important as a crafter and creator to mix it up a bit for ourselves. This card was tiny, but packed a punch with all its glitz and glimmer...red glimmer paper that is. For anyone who knows me, they know I dispise glitter. I love the way it looks, but I hate how it gets all over EVERYTHING! This glimmer paper rocked my world. Now I had the best of both worlds. Shimmer power and no mess! YES please. Even better, it'll be in the 2011-2012 Catalog. Yippee!



This last project screams Valentines Day. It was subtle and sweet, but full of love. We tried a distressing technique for the eyelet border to give it more of the appearance of riboon without the cost.

It's Beginning to Look a Lot Like Christmas...Just kidding!

As I said before, I have been a bad blogger and I haven't updated all the cool and wonderful projects our stampin' group has been rockin'. So here were the cards we made in our November card class.

I freakin' love the wide, striped ribbon so I just couldn't wait to use it on this card.



This next card was one of my favorites. Had I not already created my cards for the holidays, I think this sweet dasher card would have been in all my friend's mailboxes.



I always like to demo a gift card holder around this time because we all know it nice to have some handy. I thought this particular gift card holder was interesting because you slide your gift card right into a coin envelope (found at a large office supply store.) Genius!

Long Time No See

WOW, blog how I've neglected you. I know it is easy to say we get busy with life, but it makes me think of how I have put life on hold in order to do other things. I have honestly not stamped for any other reason, but to hold classes. How sad! Well it's time to get my groove back.

Well start way back and come forward... so that puts us at about Christmas. First let me share the cards that I made as my Christmas cards for friends and family. I absolutely adore Seasons of Joy so I tend to go right back where I feel comfortable. I honestly think these were some of my best cards yet. What do you think?
