Card Clubs - March 6 and 13, 2012

These are the cards that we will be doing at my cards clubs on March 6 and March 13:

This card was made with the Everybunny set and was inspired by Wanda @ www.starlightstamper.com.  The base card uses elegant eggplant topped with whisper white which has been embossed with the little dots embossing folder.  I used the pinking hearts border on the middle elegant eggplant piece.  I also used the Stampin' Up! corner punch which I do not see in the current catalog - whoops!  The stamp set was colored in with markers, and I used chalk around the stamped image.

 


These cards were made with the All in the Family and Happiest Birthday Wishes stamp sets.  They were inspired by some cards that I saw on www.splitcoatstampers, and I apologize that I was not able to find them again so that I could give the proper person credit.  The base cards are whisper white (guess I should have put them on a darker paper when I took the picture so it would show up better).  The boy card uses bashful blue and chocolate chip, and the girl card uses pretty in pink and chocolate chip.  The following punches were used to make this card:  scallop circle 2-3/8 and 1-3/4, dotted scallop ribbon border, square 1-1/4 and 1-3/8.

 


I learned how to make this cute little tea bag holder from Linda at www.stampingschool.com, and it uses the Tea Shoppe stamp set out of the Occasions mini catalog.  The base card uses night of navy card stock that is cut 10-1/2" X 3-1/2", and then scored at 3-1/2" and 7".  The square on the front and the scallop circle on the inside are made with lucky limeade card stock.  The little flowers and ribbon are calypso coral, and I stamped on whisper white paper using night of navy, lucky limeaid, and calypso coral.  The little flowers also have pearls in the center.  This project uses a neat technique with sticky notes to create the stacked tea cup effect.  I am a tea drinker and look forward to giving a few of my tea-drinking friends one as a gift.


This is my beloved dog Molly who will celebrate her 10th birthday this month.  She is a border collie/husky mix, and a permanet fixture in my craft room whenever I am in there.  I do have to watch her though as she doesn't mind chewing on paper and wooden stamps if she finds them on the floor.

  1. All of your cards are wonderful. Definite CASE material. Love you puppy. Miss Daisy (our mini doxie) always sits on the couch while I am stamping and sometimes gets rather vocal for attention. When I'm through - she is off to check out the floor - JUST IN CASE! :) Thanks for blessing my day. :)
