October 10th Classes

I will be holding two classes on Saturday, October 10th, at the Crop at the Langford Legion Hall.
Langford Legion Hall - 761 Station Ave.

Payment for these classes must be received by September 30th so that I can get the supplies in on time for the classes.

HOME FOR CHRISTMAS DSP CARDS

These six cards are for those that love the look of layered fussy cut pieces. The class will spent mostly with fussy cutting and everything else will be prepared for you (except stamping sentiments) so that you just have to assemble the cards.

Class Cost - $33.00

What you will need to bring for this class -
scissors, double sided adhesive, & dimensionals/pop dots. If you wish to bring your own Christmas sentiment stamps you will also need to bring clear stamping blocks for them. I will provide Stamping ink pads, and a variety of Christmas sentiments for you to use in class.


SLEIGH RIDE & JINGLE ALL THE WAY CARDS

There are 5 cards for this class (I may have a 6th by the time we have this class). It is so much fun using the Jingle All the Way Edgelits for this class. We'll be working with both the positive and negative parts of the die cut pieces. All the die cutting will be done for you. Sponge inking will be a part of this class.

Class Cost - Without stamp set and dies - $33.00, With just the stamp set - $35.00, With stamp set and Edgelit Dies - $43.00

What you will need to bring for this class -
scissors, double sided adhesive, dimensionals/pop dots, a non stick mat for inking. I will provide the colour ink pads and sponges for the class.


Individual card postings to come soon.

Only five days left to register and make your payment. Looking forward to spending creative time with you at these classes.

Dove of Peace - Vellum & Glitter

This last "Dove of Peace' card is a CAS (clean and simple) card. All the glitter and sparkle gives it a big punch.

The dove is heat embossed onto vellum and had cut out. I used real thick large clear glue dots that I cut in half to raise and pop up the dove with. I've had them for a while and are no longer in the box, so I can't give you more info on them, but you can't get them from Stampin' Up.

Next, you can see the side view.

On the inside I wanted to continue with some glimmer, so I added a strip of the Silver Glimmer Paper at the top. Then I off stamped a part of the dove twice on the right side.

So that's it for the last of the "Dove of Peace" cards for the classes in October.




Monday, October 5th
1:00pm - 4:30pm

We will be creating 6 cards this time. All the heat embossing will be done for you ahead of time. We will learn how to stamp just one line of text from a multi-lined sentiment, do a little colouring, stamping a background, and a little ink resist technique. So lots of fun!

If you have the following ink stamp pads, bring them to class: Night of Navy, Cherry Cobbler, Pear Pizzazz, and Pool Party. Please bring your "To Go Kit" and either pencil crayons, or markers in colours as close to Cherry Cobbler, Mossy Meadow and Old Olive as you can.

Dove of Peace and Fanciful Colouring

For this card I decided to position the "Softly Falling" embossed piece sideways. It gives it an entirely different look, and I really like it. The lovely pattern on the dove draws you to colouring all the fanciful pattern.

Since I don't have all of my "Stampin' Write Markers" yet, I was a little limited in my colour choice. But I suppose that coloured pencils would work too.

The only things popped up are the dove and the sentiment banner.

And, for the inside I decided to just put a couple of banner strips like I did on the front.

So that's it for this card. I have another one for you tomorrow.



Happy Stamping!

Dove of Peace - Sponge Ink Blending & Dazzling Details

Second card posting for today...

I paired Pool Party with Night of Navy cardstock. One of my favorite things to do is Sponge ink blending. I did it with the dove using the same colours as the cardstock but also added a touch of Old Olive ink. I then added a very thin layer of "Dazzling Details" over top to make the dove glimmer.

You can see the "Dazzling Details" better in this next photo.

And next, you see the layering.

And the inside... (I missed the tip of the wing when inking the stamp...)

Thank you for taking a peek at today's second card posting. I just received my first set of Aqua Painters and wish I had had them when creating these cards. I may make another card with this stamp, using them, some time in the next couple of months.

Happy Stamping!

Dove of Peace & Lucky Stars Folder

The lucky Stars impressions folder is a great one to use for Christmas cards, and I paired it with the "Dove of Peace" stamp for this card. I love mostly, or all, white cards. It is set off nicely with Cherry Cobbler and gold heat embossing.

Because the spacing between the cirlcle framelits is wider than I like, I had cut the real red inner circle. This was a bit of a challenge, but paid off.

Next you can see the layering of this card.

There is no photo of the inside, because I forgot to finish it and didn't notice it until I was taking the card photos. I decided to just leave it, and maybe later, when I send the card off to someone, I might add a little something inside.

Thank you for stopping by. If you drop in again later today there will  be another Dove of Peace card for you to see.

Happy Stamping!

Dove of Peace - Vellum, Pearls & Doilies

Today's first Dove of Peace card is in a very different style compared to yesterday's. Doilies and pearls make this a more feminine Christmas card.

And once again, I used a discontinued cardstock colour in the mix- Pistachio Pudding. I wanted all soft colours. You'll note that I heat embossed only one line of the sentiment of this stamp, onto the strip of vellum.

You can see the layering of this card, next.

The inside is very simple. The entire sentiment is stamped and a white heat embossed vellum snowflake is added.

Hope you enjoyed this card. I'm posting another "Dove of Peace" card later today, so stop by again.

May you be inspired for your Christmas card creations.

Happy Stamping!

Dove of Peace - Christmas in Night of Navy, Bermuda Bay & Coastal Cabana

In my pile of scraps one day, I came across these three colours together and was struck at how striking the combination was. My next thought was, "Can I make a Christmas card using these colours?" By adding a touch of gold, I was truly pleased at the out come.

I know that "Coastal Cabana" is no longer available, but I have nearly a whole package left and decided to use it for this class. For the Bermuda Bay and Night of Navy ink with the sprig stamp from the new "Peaceful Wreath" stamp set, I was able to create a lovely background for the gold embossed Dove and the sentiment.

For the inside, I cut a strip off the background piece I stamped and added it on the left as well as stamping the Dove with Coastal Cabana.

So this non traditional colour combination for this Christmas card is a thumbs up for me. Hope you like it too. Thanks for checking in today to have a look.

Happy stamping!

All Ye Faithful #5

This is the second post for today. If you wish to see the WEEKLY DEALS, just scroll down to the next post.

Sometimes I don't know where my head is. I don't know how I forget to post this card! The last of the "All Ye Faithful" cards.

Sponge ink blending is the technique for this card, and I used Dazzling Details around the gold Itty Bitty Star as well as dots for other stars.

Next you see the layering, as I always show you.

And inside...

So this means that tomorrow I can start to show you the "Dove of Peace" cards. I'm keeping this short as there are many things for me to catch up on. Thanks for stopping by.

Lovely gold metal buttons would be a great embellishment for Christmas creations! Both the Espresso and White ribbon would as well. And just think of the cute gift cards holders the  Mini Treat Bag Thinlits could make for cards and stocking stuffers!
