Demonstrators get a magazine each month with great ideas.  Here are some cards inspired by the lastest issue.  I was happy to see some ideas for the Frames with a Flourish set which I earned for FREE.  The first card uses the 1 1/4 inch punch to punch out the inside of the frame so it can pop out with dimensionals.  The heart is chipboard (May special coming up!).  The middle card uses a frame for a background with some satin ribbon and pretties.  The last card uses the One of a Kind stamp set and the Boho Blossoms punch.  I used the Afternoon Tea DSP, but the original sample was with Berry Bliss.  This layout is very versatile!

On Tuesday, we will be making this beautiful mini-album.  Please RSVP soon, there are  a few spots left.  I have been asked to do a second class for those who can’t attend on Tuesday, so let me know if you are interested in a different time or in a class by mail.

The original design is by our creative JanTink.   I have made 3 of these now, and every one is a bit different.  This design is so much fun to play with! 

Usually I write about the stampin’ world.  But I had to share this great special with everyone!

It’s the 2^nd Anniversary of the fastest growing company in direct sales history!

The Wild Wasabi Textured Cardstock special offer is almost sold out.  Contact me soon if you want this special.  See details on the specials page on my website (link to right).  Here are 2 cards that I made today with the prescored cardstock.  I trimmed down both sides so the card was 5 1/2 by 4 1/4 (standard invitation size) when folded.  This card layout was CASED from SCS.  Note how easily I changed out the stamp sets (Dream your Life, Garden Whimsey) and designer paper (Afternoon Tea, Summer Picnic)!  The top panel was folded over and secured with brads.  The stamped image is tilted and the mat is paper pierced.  Designer paper panels are 1 by 4 1/4 and 3 1/2 by 4 1/4.

I adapted this mini-album from instructions on the website from SU.  It has 14 pages and uses the Wild Wasabi Cardstock offer, Enjoy Every Moment stamp set and Daisy Dash wheel.  Don’t forget that you can get FREE WHEELS this month!  Contact me soon with your order, as the Wasabi CS offer is almost depleted!    I am making some extra albums to sell - $10 includes postage!  Contact me to order.

Here’s a sneak peak at the SU May specials for those who like to plan ahead.  I’m excited about stocking up on the art journals!  They are such high quality and made great albums, idea books and journals.

Cutting Mat Combo - Purchase the cutting mat and get the craft knife FREE!  These items are a must have for any crafter.  They would make a great Mother’s Day gift too!

Get On Board with CHIPBOARD - 25% off all chipboard with a $35 purchase of any SU product.  Alter an art journal using our Simply Scrappin’ kits or Designer Series papers for a great gift idea. 

Contact me soon to book your free home workshop in May - my house or yours.   Check out my website for upcoming events.   My calendar is filling up quickly!  It’s also a great time to become a Stampin’ Up! demonstrator and take advantage of these great specials at an even greater discount.

• There is no limit to the number of discounted chipboard products a customer may purchase once the qualifying order of $35 has been reached. 

Yesterday was my day to decide which cards to include in this week’s class.  While looking at 2 of the cards that had a similar layout, I had a brilliant thought.  Why not use the same layout and materials for 2 different cards.  That will make prepping for the class so much easier, plus give more options to the participants!

Here are some of the cards we will be making.  I will be taking RSVP’s until Friday - I hope you can come!  Details are on my demo website (link on the right).

This is a new fold - very easy and gives you a little pocket for a note or gift card.  I shouldn’t tell you this, but I had mounted the congratulations stamp upside down and stamped it that way.  But it was an easy mistake to mask -  after fixing the stamp, I restamped it above the upside down on.

View my website link (to the right) to see upcoming classes on my calendar.  For this Saturday’s Stamp-A-Stack, we will be making cards for lots of different occasions.  Here is a sample using the Tart & Tangy stamp set, Summer Picnic paper and olive twill ribbon, all from the Occasions mini-catalog - (link to right).
