Make & Take (Mojo194)


I have a workshop tonight for a lovely group of women.  This is one of the cards they will be making tonight (they requested 2 cards - this isn't their first time at the rodeo).  I used this week's mojo monday sketch and tweaked it just a little - I love how fun this card turned out and may have to use it again at another workshop!

Card Recipe:
Paper - Play Date DSP, Crumb Cake, Chocolate Chip, So Saffron & Whisper White Card Stock
Ink - Chocolate Chip
Stamps - Birthday Bliss
Embellishments - Basic Rhinestones, 1/8" Taffeta Ribbon (Early Espresso), Itty Bitty Shapes Punch, 1" circle punch
Big Shot - Square Lattice Embossing Folder

June Card Class Cont.

Here are 3 of the 5 cards we made on Sunday - the basic theme is having a backgroung stamp.  They are fun and simple - which is just the way I like my stamping. (One card is in post below and the other didn't make it cleanly out of class - it happens)

You'll find a very similar version of this card in the Summer Mini Catalog - perfect when the creative juices aren't working at full capacity.
The basic layout for this card is in this month's Stampin' Success - Stampin' Up really does make being a Demonstrator easy!

June Card Class

Sneak peek at one of the cards we'll be making next Sunday at my monthly stamp class.
This card has a super cute inside but that's "secret" - ok not really I just couldn't get a picture of it without the card falling over (a little windy here today).  All of the class cards will have this color scheme - pear pizzaz, pumpkin pie, pacific point, daffodil delight, melon mambo.  I'll post all the cards next Sunday.

April Page of the Month



Here is April's page of the month scrapbook design.  I needed a little color this month and have been on a flower kick with all my paper crafting.  Hopefully this is just enough to spring to get you through this gray weather we've been having.  Have fun picking out the pictures you'd like to highlight with the simple yet fun design.

Color Throwdown #138

This week's Color Throwdown is navy, white and a color of your choice.  I love navy as a neutral - in cards and clothing - it's a great alternative to black!  So this challege was right up my alley.  One of my favorite DSPs from the Occasions Mini is the Springtime Vintage DSP and I couldn't resist using it in this challenge.  I added the accents of baja breeze and so saffron to bring it all together.  I used this card in my monthly stamp class yesterday and it was a huge hit!
