March Techniques Class

Last night was Techniques Class!! I love Techniques Class because I get to teach something that is most likely new to the ladies.

I'm not sure this technique has a name because it goes right back to the basics of Heat Embossing, but what makes it new is to show the ladies how you can take this stamp set...


(Because I Care, Hostess level one set that you can earn FREE just for holding a workshop with a minimum of $150 purchase.)

and turn it into this pretty gold embossed heart

To make this lovely card...


I guess the ribbon is a technique too as I showed the ladies how to run a simple stitch down the center, gather it up and attach it with Red Line Sticky Tape.

MENU:
SS: Bliss, Because I Care
CS: Marina Mist, Elegant Eggplant, Shimmer White
INK: Versa Mark, Marina Mist, Elegant Eggplant
Punches: Full Heart, Heart to Heart
Accessories: Gold Embossing Powder, Heat Tool, Scalloped Heart of Hearts Embosslit, Big Shot, Marina Mist Satin Ribbon, Chantilly Crochet Trim, Thread and Needle, Dimensionals, Red Line Sticky Tape, Aqua painter

Stamp A Stack part 2

Can’t say I get too many requests for Halloween cards, but I like to send them to my daycare kids and then there are friends and, and, and,… well, you get the idea. Why make cards and not send them, right?! Don’t you think this little spider made from punches is cute???

Just a Note

While Dale was working on our kitchen make-over I tried to help him out, but ended up landing a board on the top of my foot. OUCH! The first couple days I didn’t do much of anything, and thankfully my friend pitched in to watch the kids. She even brought down a fun little chair with wheels so I could scoot around. Normally I’m up and around all day, but since I had to stay put and ice this crazy foot, I was able to accomplish quite a bit.

(At least I had my toe nails done so they looked pretty for the XRay!)

My stash of things I have been storing up for Craft Sale projects was starting to over flow so I thought it was about time to start working on some of these ideas.

Two different designs, but the same style of note pads are a great sell at the craft sales. I combined our Perfect Dots Embossing Folder with the new Hostess Level 1 stamp set Because I Care and another new set called Elements of Style to decorate the cover of the note pads.

MENU:
SS: Because I Care, Elements of Style, Elegant Cheer
CS: WW, Cherry Cobbler
INK: Old Olive, Cherry Cobbler, Marina Mist, Pacific Point, Regal Rose, Concord Crush, Early Espresso
Accessories: Butterfly Punch, Perfect Dots EF, Big Shot

So For Now…

Happy Stamping!!
