Club Night Class....

Good Morning everyone, Just thought you all might like to see what we did on Club night this past week.

Everyone had their own ideas for what they wanted to use the card for, so every card turned out different. This is absolutely fantastic as it shows the "Artistic License" that each individual has when stamping. This is exactly what I want to see when you stamp with me.






Don't get me wrong, I don't mind direct copying if you don't have any ideas right at the moment, the idea of my classes is to "SPARK" your creativity so even if you copy and take it home and then use the idea for another project, I have reached my objective :)







Here then are my samples that everyone used for their own creativity. (I even copied one of the gal's for the Christmas Tree one... ;) Thanks Debbie!)






This is one of the new sets this year and I think I am in love with it. I ordered it for the Stampin' Up! pre-view prior to the new catalog coming out, but have only used it a couple of times for a quick card as I headed out to a birthday or shower...
All the samples on this page also feature the New "In Colors" from Stampin' Up! Notice the double stitched ribbon? it is gorgeous!

Thinking Pink for a few minutes

A friend had a baby girl so I had an excuse to work with the pink colours for this card. Again it features the retired "Bundle of Joy" and I also used my cuttlebut for the textured hearts. The base of the card is Regal Rose and the accent is Pretty in Pink. Someone asked how I am getting my "watermark" on my photos. I am creating it each time I edit my photos so I am not really using a "watermark" as such. Difficult to explain because I don't really know what I am doing. I use Photoshop CS2...

Class Preparations

Every year I am asked to do a "Christmas Craft" with the ESL students at our local college. Usually there are around 20 students but this year there is 40! Wow... a little nervous about this but it should work out. My plan is to have them create a "votive holder" and a Christmas card that they can either give to their host family or take/send home to their own families. Usually they want to keep it themselves though as they are very excited to have created something so cool with their own hands. This post shows this years votive holder which features the Hostess Set: Perfect Presentation. The cardstock is Wild Wasabi and Purely Pomegranate. Enjoy!
