Vintage Minnie Card

Love this vintage look of this Disney card.  I CASED it from Stampin' Connections a long time ago and I don't remember who did this card.  It will be part of my upcoming Disney class.

Goofy for Disney Cards

Here's another card for the upcoming Disney class April 29th or May 7th.  Contact me today if you want to take this class.

April Club Kite Card

This card was CASED from Kellie.  To see Kellie Gettelfinger's You Tube tutorial of this kite card Click here. 

Here is the card we made at club. It's better to use baker's twine for the kite string and add satin ribbon tails. With the first card the satin tails kept coming untied.


This is my first attempt at this card.

April 25 Canal Street Class Cards

This first card I made the ice cream cone with petite pennant builder and cupcake  builder punch.  I used iredescent ice embossing powder to create the ice cream on the front of the card.  I sprinkled the inside ice cream using the Create a Cupcake stamp set.
 
This card was CASED from Paper players challege by Julie Wadlinger(Julie Stamps).  See here card by clicking here.  I changed only a few things.  This is the first time I have watercolored on whisper white card stock.  The trick is not to use too much water.  Give it a try.  The flowers were stamped in Baja Breeze first then Wisteria Wonder was watercolored on the edges. 

 
Love the Springy look of this card with the 3/8" organdy Melon Mambo ribbon.  I am going to miss the Bashful Blue Color used on the base of this card.  Go to my online store now to purchase retiring paper before it's gone. Click here.

April 11th Canal Street Class Cards

This is the card I made for class on April 11th.  It was CASED from a Convention 2012 display board.  It uses the Lattice Bigz die.  There are so many ways to use this die.  The flower is the blossom punch with the negative pieces from the lattice die adhered in the center of the petal. The small center flower is the itty bitty punch pack flower with a rhinestone center.  The inked edges really make it pop!  See inside of card to the right and below.  I stamped a Secret Garden flower inside.
 

The second card I used the hostess set A Cherry on Top.  I did see the idea of a movable vellum top on Stampin' Connections way back last Summer.  So I do not remember who the demo was.  What a clever idea.  I used Pool Party ink and iridescent ice embossing powder to give it some extra sparkle.  The cup cake inside is from the same stamp set.

Every month during 2013, Stampin' Up is combining some of their all-time-favorite stamps with a new, never-before-seen stamp to create a monthly “Best of” stamp set. Best of Butterflies is their April offering, but don’t forget to check out the sets from previous months as well. They’re available all year!

The second butterfly matches the new elegant butterfly punch.

April Club Card

I cased this card from Heidi Baks.  Since she posted this card in December, I started following her blog.  I was in a swap with her at Leadership and told her how much I loved it.  I didn't change a thing.  It was perfect!  The lobster is stamped in Cherry Cobbler ink and then the body is filled in by drawing the ink in with a blender pen.

Whale of a Treat

This is a treat bag that was one of the door prizes at the Canal Street class.  It is filled with yummy gold fish crackers.  Wouldn't you be the favorite Grandma to offer your grandchildren this treat filled with love.  You'd probably be like me fishing for praise about how cute it is!

Nancy's March 28th Canal Street Class Cards

This beautiful card was CASed from Mary Fish.  It took some assembly with 12 squares, 3 brads, a large rhinestone, 3 small rhinestones, a popped up 2 layer butterfly, and a popped up flower and happy day greeting.
We are always suprised about which cards we get the most comments on.  This is the card Nancy received the most compliments on.  We expected the top one to be the favorite.  Which is your favorite?
