Happy Stamping and Shopping!

March Coffee and Cards class

My February Coffee and Card class was fun, but I know many couldn’t attend due to the day and time. So for March, I was able to reserve the space for a Saturday afternoon. I hope this day and time works better for more people. I realize no date or time will work for everyone.

Here are the cards we will be making this month.

Graduation season will be here soon! Make this SV gift card holder to give to your favorite graduate 🙂

We all need sympathy cards, unfortunately. Have this one ready to send whenever needed.

We all need birthday cards! Make this fun card for anyone in your life, especially the men.

Adorable Rooster from the Home to Roost SAB stamp set

You might have overlooked this set, like I did, when you first saw the Sale-a-bration catalog, right? It didn’t do much for me. But then once I got it and started inking it, I discovered that I LOVE it! Check out this video where I make a super cute card with it.

Links to the products used in this video are in the video description. Hope you enjoyed the video 🙂

I’m trying something new . . .

It is hard to get people to want to host a workshop in their home. I get it, I truly do. So I am trying something new. I have found a cute little local coffee place that has a lovely large table perfect for a card class! So I hope my local friends can join me for some coffee, chatting and crafting 🙂

The most intricate card we will be making was CASEd from the amazingly talented Mary Fish. I love this very non-traditional Valentine’s Day card, don’t you!?! It uses the Meant to Be bundle.

I just HAD to use the adorable Home to Roost stamp set from our Sale-a-bration brochure! We’ll do some easy coloring with our Blends on this cute card.

And finally, we’ll make this super cute and quick birthday card that uses our whisper white note cards and envelopes as well as the Piece of Cake bundle.

I hope my local friends can join me for some stamping fun! See you there!

Stamping with large background stamps

Many people struggle when stamping with large background stamps as they can be a bit cumbersome. If you don’t have our large acrylic block F or our Stamparatus®, not to worry! Watch this short video for a tip when stamping with large background stamps.

I hope you found that helpful, especially if you are new to stamping and don’t have a ton of tools yet in your arsenal. Here is the card I made after filming this video:
