Here are 2 cards we made in my last Stamp A Stack class. This is a class where participants make 10 cards, and the theme this time was "birthday cards". It’s always nice to stock up on your supply of birthday cards!
This fun card uses the "You Make Me Happy" stamp set from the Spring Mini Catalog and an interesting color combo that I came up with: Buckaroo Blue, Apricot Appeal, Ruby Red and Certainly Celery! Adding the "Important Message" tab with the Round Tab Punch and some black gingham ribbon dresses up the card a bit – don’t ya think?
This So Saffron Long Notes card and envelope also incorporates the yummy, delicious, double sided, low calorie Au Chocolat paper (both from the Spring Mini catalog), and one of my newest favorites sets Big Blossoms. The little tabs are made from the small oval punch and the dots are made using the template from the Mat Pack and a Chocolate Chip Stampin’ Write marker! Kind of looks like real holes… guess you’d call them Faux Holes! hee hee

And just so my garden doesn’t feel left out today, here is a shot of my 2nd most favorite flower, Alstromeria. It makes a great "filler" in bouquets and lasts a LONG time in a vase, like roses do.
Today I am getting together with about a dozen gals from my Luv 2 Stamp Group and we are doing a shoebox swap (we call it Stamp A Rama) and I am also rewarding my top sellers with "5 Fun Free day" (they get to make 5 projects for Free).. so I’ll have lots to share later today or tomorrow! Stay tuned…..
