Soooo how many chocolate biscuits does it take to create
a Class?
I munched through half a pack during the night, and
finished the Class prep at 4am!!
At this weeks “Create With Kathe” Class, we had an
xtra special guest Margaret, so Class numbers on Thursday swelled to 7 for the
afternoon Class!
This week we made a cute FlowerPot Card, + a card
featuring the new “Little Letters” Thinlits that spelt out the word “BIRTHDAY” …
Project 1
FlowerPot Card
The card Base Is Crumb Cake, and the Pot is embossed
with the “Decorative Dots” and “Fancy Fan” Embossing Folders.
The Cardstock and Silky Taffeta Ribbon is in an accent
colour of Lost Lagoon, which is a nice contrast against the Crumb Cake.
The words “thankful for you” are from the “Good Greetings”
stamp set, and are embossed in White. The
sentiment banner is cut using the “Project Life Cards and Labels” Framelits,
with 2 rows of Pearls added, which frames the sentiment nicely.
The Card Insert slides out of the Pot, and is Whisper
White, backed on to Crumb Cake.
The flowers are from the “Flower Shop” stamp set,
and are stamped with Versamark on to Pool Party, and then embossed in White,
they are then hand coloured using the Aqua Painters with Coastal Cabana and Tempting
Turquoise Inks. Finally they are punched
using the Pansy Punch, and then 4 small Pearls added to the centre of each
flower.
Leaves in Garden Green are cut using the Flower
Frenzy Bigz die, and adhered to the back of the card insert, with the flowers
arranged to overlap on to the Pot.
On the card Insert, the background stamp from the “For
All Things” stamp set, is in a wash of colour with Coastal Cabana. The
sentiment “for someone who makes others so happy!” is from the “Petite Pairs”
stamp set and stamped in Tempting Turquoise.
A Crystal Effect Dot coloured in Coastal Cabana in
the final touch, and anchors the project.
Wah-lah … FlowerPot Card done!
Project 2
“BIRTHDAY” Card
I have been wanting to try this technique out since
I saw it on {photos from} the display boards from the Stampin’ Up! Convention.
The card base for this card is Soft Suede, and the
word “BIRTHDAY” {from the “Little Letters” Thinlits} is lined up and Washi Tape
used to adhere it to the card base. The Big Shot is used to cut the letters,
but not all the way to the base, the words then pop up … such fun!
The word “DAY” is cut from scraps of Blushing Bride
cardstock, and adhered to the card, to make the word “BIRTHDAY” really pop!
The card base is then embossed with the “Large
Polka Dot” Embossing Folder.
Venetian Crochet Trim is then added to the centre
of the card, and wrapped around the front panel of the card, and adhered under
the Labels.
The “Labels Collection” Framelits are used to cut
labels in graduating sizes, in Crumb Cake, Blushing Bride and Naturals White.
The word ”Celebrate You!” is from the “Cupcake
Party” stamp set, and is stamped in Early Espresso.
A Cupcake from the same stamp set, is stamped in Early
Espresso and Strawberry Slush, on Blushing Bride cardstock, and then punched with
the ”Cupcake Builder” Punch.
The top of the Cupcake has been adhered with a
Dimensional.
Stampin’ Glitter in Dazzling Diamonds is added to
the top of the Cupcake.
A Crystal Effects Dot in Strawberry Slush is
adhered with a Glue Dot, and is on the bottom right-hand corner, and anchors
the project.
For the Card Insert, Naturals White cardstock has had
the corners rounded with the “Project Life Corner” Punch.
The sentiment “Today calls for something pink with sprinkles
on top!” is from the “Remembering Your Birthday” stamp set, and is coloured with
the Early Espresso and Strawberry Slush Stampin’ Markers.
Another Cupcake from the “Cupcake Party” stamp set
is stamped on Blushing Bride cardstock, with Early Espresso and Strawberry Slush
Inks.
The final touch being the Stampin’ Glitter in Dazzling
Diamonds, on the top of the Cupcake.
