"Create With Kathe" For Thursday 23rd April 2015

At this weeks “Create With Kathe” Craft Class we made a “Thank You” card, using the gorgeous and versatile “Painted Petals” stamp set, and featuring the Baby Wipe Technique, and also a Baby card featuring the cute and gorgeous “Zoo Babies” stamp, along with “Something Lacy” and “B.Y.O.P.” stamp sets…

Project 1 “Painted Petals” Baby Wipe Style “Thank You” Card

For the Baby Wipe Technique, I used Island Indigo, Elegant Eggplant and Rose Red Classic Stampin’ Ink Refills ...

 

I would highly recommend you use a glass cutting board under the baby wipe, and I know from past experience that the ink stains the counter top!

This card is inspired by one created by Jacque Williams 

The cardbase is Garden Green, layered with Rose Red and Whisper White cardstock.

What with the “Petite Purse” die being on the Retired List, we just had to make a wee purse to match.

The cardstock for the purse is Whisper White, which has been stamped with the “Petite Petals” stamp set and using the Baby Wipe Technique.

Love how this card turned out!

Of course Jen changed hers up a tad and added Pearls …

Project 2 “Zoo Babies” Baby Card

The cardbase for this card is Soft Suede layered with my new favourite colour Rose Red, and Blushing Bride.

Love all the layers and textures on this card!

Of course Jen changed hers up a tad ...

“Create With Kathe” For Thursday 16th April 2015

At this weeks Class, we made a masculine card featuring the "Moon Lake" and "Guy Greetings" stamps sets and featured the “Reflections” Technique, + a cute feminine lacy card featuring the "Petal Potpourri" stamp set and gorgeous Sahara Sand Lace Trim ...

Project 1 “Masculine Reflections” Card

This gorgeous card is based on the “Reflections” card that I made in August last year, to view this post, please click here. 

This technique is based on a Tutorial by France Martin. 

I love that my ladies add their own touches, Kay and Bev added birds, and Pam did a woopsie and rolled her stamp, which we were able to fix by layering the sentiment with the Modern Label Punch … 

By Bev

By Kay

By Pam

My daughter JorjaRose, who is 11 years old, made her card all by herself, I only assisted with the “Reflection”. Otherwise it was all hers … so impressed with her talent!
