Last week we had three Class, Tuesday 17th March 1pm>3pm, and also Thursday 19th March 1pm>3pm and again 7pm>pm , ... and we are doing it all over again this week!!!
This week we made a "Masculine Birthday Card", which I also re-created in pink! And also a shabby chic birthday card featuring my Tim
Holtz Sizzix Bird Cage Die, which was the first Dies I ever bought!
To check out some other great versions, head on over to Pinterest
Project 1 "Masculine Birthday Card"
The card-base is Basic Gray, with the contrasting colour of
Smokey Slate.
I featured the Sika FibaTape that I have used in the past,
this time on a diagonal.
Stamp sets featured are “Harwood”, which has been embossed in
Clear Stampin’ Emboss Powder, “Label Love” which has been embossed in White
Stampin’ Emboss Powder, “Crazy About You”, stamped in Memento Tuxedo Black,
“Measuring Tape” stamp from Urban Stamps, which is stamped in Memento Tuxedo
Black on Smokey Slate, then cut into strips.
Dies featured are the “Hello You” Thinlits on the card insert,
as well as the All Occasions Dies “Tools Set” for the cute set of tools, which
have been cut in Basic Gray cardstock.
I also made the same card up in pink, just in case!
Colours are Strawberry Slush with Blushing Bride.
Wah-lah … “Masculine Birthday Card” {and Feminine Card} done!
Project 2 "Happy Birthday Shabby Chic Bird Cage Card"
The cardbase for all three cards featured is Shara Sand.
This first card has an overlay of Naturals White, which has been embossed with the "Modern Mosaic" Textured Impression Embossing Folder, then sponged with Crumb Cake.
The bird cage is Soft Sky, with the word "happy" from the "Hello You" Thinlits, which is cut from Blushing Bride cardstock.
The little flower is layers of sponged "Irresistibly Yours” Specialty
Designer Series Paper, secured with a Cady Dot Brad Base.
Embellishments are the flower trim, Seam Binding Ribbon and fabric covered buttons.
For the card insert, I have cut the same "happy", added the word "BIRTHDAY" in Garden Green, from the “Crazy About You” stamp set, and added a bird, punched using the Bird Builder Punch.
For the second and third cards, they have an overlay of newsprint which has been faux stitched, with a little flower peeking out the top right corner.
The bird cages are in Soft Sky cardstock, the and the birds are from the "All Abloom" Designer Series Paper Stacks.
The word "happy" is in Lost Lagoon cardstock.
The ruched ribbon is Lost Lagoon, and again there is a fabric covered button.
For the card insert, the word "happy" is cut in Lost lagoon cardstock, and the word "BIRTHDAY" is in Lost Lagoon, from the “Crazy About You” stamp set, and I have added a bird, punched using the Bird Builder Punch.
Wah-lah ... "Happy Birthday Shabby Chic Bird Cage Card" done!
