Stampin' Up! Class Projects: Black & White June Class

For June I decided to do something a little different for my class theme so I had a "Black & White" class.  Every card we made had the black and white theme. 











Stamping with Scraps: Strawberry Slush

Love, Love, Love the way this card turned out.  I cut out the flower using the Floral Frames Framelits and then I used scraps to make the center flower.  I used the same technique as the "Sunburst Technique".





Stampin' Up! Eastern Elegance - Coastal Cabana Card

I know Stampin' Up! has retired this paper... Eastern Elegance.  But it is just too pretty to put down.  I wanted to use up whatever DSP (Designer Series Paper) I have left and so I started playing around and came up with this lovely creation.  I hope it inspires you.

Throwback Thursdays: Father's Day Vest Cards

Today's Throwback Thursday idea is a "Father's Day Vest Card".  These are 2 different samples I made over the years.  These are really simple to make, if you look at each one, you can see its basically a folder card and the Fishing vest has slits on the sides and in the middle, which can be done with a punch and the same goes for the argyle vest card.. circle punch on the sides and a slit V down the front middle.   






Father's Day Envelope Cards

I made these Father's Day Envelope Cards for my Dad and bothers for Father's Day and put Scratch Off Tickets inside.  In a previous post, I showed these with a Hershey bar inside...  personally I prefer the chocolate... of course.  But I knew they would enjoy the scratch off tickets.

 





Technique Tuesday: Bleach Watercolor Crayons

WOW!  How gorgeous is this...  this would make a very pretty card for Mother's Day or anyone one special in your life!  As I take out these old 6x6 technique swaps... I remember why we did these swaps for so long.... each one I pull out is more prettier than the next. 





Color Combo Challenge: Flower Shop

For today's "Color Combo Challenge" I am using the Stampin' Up! Flower Shop stamp set in Crisp Cantaloupe.  The DSP paper and Ruffle Ribbon coordinate with the flowers in Crisp Cantaloupe.  Happy Birthday greeting is from the Stampin' Up! set Best Dad Ever.
