New Year - New Mini Catalog and Sale-A-Bration.

So exciting the start the New Year with a New January-April Mini Catalog and Sale-A-Bration.

On the left, click on the picture from the Mini Catalog and/or Sale-A-Bration, you can see the whole catalog and brochure.

Here is one of the cards for the January Card Class.
Hope you like it too, it has a Pop-Up on the inside. 





























Maybe it still exists, but back in the day we had Strike Matchbooks in a little to go package. Well, that idea was used to create this card.

Materials used to create this card:
162755 Hot Air Balloon Bundle
162747 Lighter Than Air 6x6 DSP
141416 Flirty Flamingo Card Stock
147086 Flirty Flamingo Ink Pad
162759 Baker's Twine Three Color Pack
162758 Rainbow Adhesive-Backed Dots
162889 Heartfelt Hexagon Bundle
104430 Dimensionals

Cut the base Flirty Flamingo Card Stock at 10 x 4 1/4".
Score at 4 1/2".
Cut Flirty Flamingo CS at 2 1/2 x 4 1/4". 
Score at 1 1/4".
Cut Flirty Flamingo at 3 1/4 x 3".

Cut the inside Basic White Card Stock at 9 3/4 x 4".
Score at 4 3/8".
Fold the Basic White CS and cut 3/4" from the fold at 1 1/5 & 2 1/5", this makes the Pop-Up, score between the 2 cuts and fold.





Before glueing the inside into the card base, make sure the Pop-Up piece is folded the opposite of the card. Glue first the longer piece from the card close to the score line. Then fold the Basic White CS and glue the short part of the card and fold the Flirty Flamingo on top. Again make sure the Pop-Up piece is folded to the inside of the card. 

Cut Basic White at 
- 4 3/8 x 4 1/8" 
- 4 1/8 x 1 1/8"

Cut Lighter Than Air 6x6 DSP at:
- 4 1/4 x 4"
- 4 x 1"  
- 3 x 2 3/4"

Glue now the top piece, Flirty Flamingo 2 1/2 x 4 1/4", scored at 1 1/4" and fold in half. Add glue on one side and adhere to the back of the longer piece from the card, at the top. Add the two small layers of CS (Basic White & DSP).

Glue the Basic White 4 3/8 x 4 1/8" and DSP 4 1/4 x 4" together and glue them to the front of the card.

Now glue the Flirty Flamingo 3 1/4 x 3" and the DSP 3 x 2 3/4" together.

Stamp the two sayings, using the ink and punch it out.
Add Dimensionals to both and adhere them. One to the front of the card and the other to the piece for the inside.

Add adhesive to the front of the Pop-Up piece and glue it together to the fold from the Pop-Up.

Last thing to do is the Baker's Twine and look how awesome this card turned out.

Thank you so much for taking time out of your busy day!
I so appreciate your business.

Try these techniques and have fun creating.
Happy Stamping.

May Card Class

Oepsss... I have been so busy, I totally forgot to post the cards from the card classes lately.
Here you will find cards from the May card class.

With these 3 cards we used Versamark Ink and used different techniques.

The first card Versamark was used as a watermark. "Happy Birthday" was stamped with the Stamparatus (retired).

The second card has the medallion what was stamped with Versamark straight to the paper and dipped in the gold embossing powder and melted with the heat embossing tool. This was repeated 3 times, the stamp was stamped in the Versamark and while the gold was still hot the image was stamped into the melted gold. After this process, it was cut with a die.

The third card was stamped on Basic White card stock with Versamark and clear embossing powder was used. After using the heat tool a Blending Brush with ink was used to give color on the card. As you can see the stamped image is resisting the color. When the color is to your likes, use a tissue afterwards and massage gentle over the image to take off the excess ink.
