February 2025 Class Cards

Image
  Hi there Creators My goodness over 1/2 way through January!, so I figured seeing as I've made them I'd best share my class cards for Feb.  Classes are Friday 7th at 1pm in my classroom Laanecoorie and Saturday 8th at 10.30am at Wattle City Church Argyle Road, Maryborough.  Class cost is $24 for 4 cards I thought we'd better make the most of the Sale-a-Bration goodies, so this is Heart Shaped Bundle (stamps & dies) that you can get for free with an order of $200, it is a pretty bundle!  I've teamed it up with the new Antique Pearls this next one uses the rather cool Linked Together Decorative Masks and also the saying from With You in Mind (I rather like nice large sayings for cards and this one has a few! Moving onto a new punch: To the Point Label Punch and matching stamp set Bright Borders And last but not least one of the new Hybrid embossing folders (this means it has dies that go with the embossing folder): Beautiful Butterflies (never would have gu...

However let's show you the cards..... To make these cards I used the Beautiful Shapes Dies, in particular the largest plain circle, I cut 9 of these from the pretty paper, plus one from scrap paper The Scrap paper one I folded into quarters, then drew the straight lines to create a square (so I could work out what size template square I needed)  measured that up and cut a square from thicker card to be my template: I then folded my pretty paper circles round the square, removed the square and pressed them down properly. Once all were folded I then stuck them onto a spare square of cardstock (I made mine 8cm square as I knew the length of the pattern would be 9cm and I didn't want the card to show underneath) when you're sticking them on, start in the middle ...

I'm hoping we can gather a few more people for the Maryborough class, so do tell your friends!   We'll be making 4 cards, (with envelopes) for $20 Let's kick off the "show & tell"..... this first one uses the brand new Wisteria Wishes (oh this set is rapidly becoming one of my favourites!)  Also some a couple of the new In Colours (can you spy which ones?) Next up, I can't resist the pull of the ocean..... with Waves of Inspiration (and another new In Colour) Number 3 (if you know me you'll know I love all things gold🤣)  This uses the gilded leafing, along with the quite cool Beautiful Shapes dies, and Biggest Wish Stamps Last but not least I've dug out the Celebrate Sunflowers Sta...
