The top 2 cards Nancy taught and the bottom 2 were mine.  We used the Stamparatus to stamp the die cuts on the tea card.  Boy I love that tool!

Asian Screen Card

This is the first card I made with All Good Things stamp set.  When I saw this set in the catalog, I new I had to have it to make Asian Screen cards.  I made a triple fold to fit in a standard A 2 envelope by folding over one section.  I knew something was just not right with the card.  I think it was the small size.  Then I found the card idea below on Pinterest ,so it is cased.  I made mine with glimmer paper instead of gold foil.  I new after making it that it had to be modified for class because it took to much time to cut that border.  I had to cut apart the greeting from the large goldfish image.  I used Granite Gray ink and colored with Pumpkin Pie Blends.  The card stock colors are Granite Gray and Pumpkin Pie. 

This is the card I ended up making for class.  I hope they like it.  The class is Thursday July 26 at both 9 am and 1 pm.  If you haven't signed up yet there is room.  Contact me today to reserve your spot.  It is a four panel screen card.  It needs to be folded in 4 to fit in a A 2 envelope.  The images are heated embossed with gold embossing powder.  The card stock colors are Cherry Cobbler and Basic Black.  Other products needed are  1 1/4" circle punch or die, Decorative Ribbon punch, Everyday Label punch, Eastern Medallions framelits/dies and Lakeside framelits.  I colored the rhinstones with Cherry Cobbler Blends.

Recent Stamparatus Class Cards

Here are the 2 wreath cards my ladies made at the class using the hexagon template.  They choose one of the two to make.  Get the hexagon download to print by clicking here.  The left card uses Pennant Parade and Stitched All Around while the right card uses Happy Birthday Gorgeous.  More ladies made the card on the right.  Which one would you make?

This card we punched the lemon pieces and then stamped them in a template for quicker results.

This is what the hexagon template looks like.  Turn it 8 times to get a wreath shape.  You can use flowers and leaves, hearts or circles to make a Spirograph looking card.  It allows for multiple sizes of squares.  I laminated it and used repositional adhesive to hold the square on the template temporarily.  If you rather have a circle instead or a square, trim the square into a circle after stamping.

I also made a laminated grid with a magnet backing to fit in the Stamparatus.  I have a plastic topped mouse pad made for the MISTI.  I suggested to Stampin' Up that they make one for the Stamparatus.   I hope they do. In the mean time this is a good substitute.  I found directions from Jody Brechbill on Youtube.  It really helps the magnets hold tight as the photopolymer stamps are so sticky it sometimes lifts the paper.

Canal Street Class July 12,2018

 Carrie's card uses Abstract Impressions stamp set. This card was cased from Pinterest. The next card uses Coffee Cafe stamp set.  The bottom 2 cards Nancy taught. The bottom card she cased from Lisa Curcio.  We had to change rec centers between the morning and afternoon classes so we tried to keep the cards easier since we had a smaller window of time for the rooms.
