Birthday Card Class

I only have one design left to due for my upcoming Birthday Card Class and unfortunately I am going to have to wait until Monday to complete it because the stamp set has not arrived. :( I can tell you that the card will feature the Countryside Stamp Set if that helps. I have decided to show you a picture of the other cards together then over the weekend I will show the individual cards that I haven't showcased yet. The Rose Red and Wild Wasabi Cards in the second row are the same design just different colors to show you the two options. This makes the card great for boys or girls. If you are attending the classes next weekend please let me know whether you would like Rose Red or Wild Wasabi or multiples of each. Remember this class is set up in such a way that you can make as many cards as you want. The first 6 cards are $12 and ever card after that is just a $1. So get your list out for the year and get your Birthday cards done early. I am off to deliver orders and run errands. Lots to do today before the weekend but be sure and stop back by for more cards. Have a great day and thank you for stopping by, Tonya

Circle Circus Birthday

Time for another birthday card. I must admit that I have had this set for a while (like more than half a year) and had not inked it until I made this card. :( This card contains the colors Night of Navy, Cherry Cobbler, and Pumpkin Pie and the combo comes straight from the Color Coach. The stamp sets I used are Circle Circus and Teeny Tiny Wishes. The Square Lattice Embossing Folder was used on the bottom and the accessories that were added are Night of Navy Grosgrain Ribbon and Silver Brads. If you would like to make this card it will be one of the ones that we are making at my upcoming Birthday Card Stamp A Stack. I will be posting another card using the Filled with Love Bundle later this evening so be sure and stop back by then. Hope you are enjoying all the wonderful white snow. The kids and I got to go out sledding today and they had so much fun. Thanks for stopping by, Tonya

Blue Christmas

Good morning, it's Friday again and the week has flown by. Today the boys are home from school and K has a short day so life is a little crazier than usual and we have shopping planned for this afternoon, but before I headed off to do that I wanted to share with you another card from this past weekend's Stamp a Stack. I really like how this card turned out and may make some for our family Christmas Card but who knows I may change my mind again before next month. ;) This card uses a three stamp sets but you could just use two. I used Tags Til Christmas (which is in one of the Holiday Bundles currently available), Delightful Decorations and Four the Holidays. The card is a standard 4 1/4 x 11 but after folding it in half you fold the front in half again then use the Big Shot and the Movers and Shapers Dies to cut out half of the Ornament. Then you can layer an Ornament that has been punched out with the Ornament Punch in the cut out area like I did with the Bashful Blue Ornament. The front panel has also had some texture added with the Big Shot and the Perfect Details Texture Plate. The ink colors that I used are Bashful Blue and Night of Navy Classic Ink. The only card stock you need is Whisper White and Night Of Navy. There are Pearl Jewels and Whisper White Taffeta Ribbon also on the card. To add a little extra detail the Whisper White Panel inside the card was punched along the outside edge with the Scallop Trim Border. If you would like to make this card for your Christmas card just give me a call and I will help you place your order. There are so many color combos this card could be done in like Cherry Cobbler and Crumb Cake or Old Olive and Real Red. Hmm, maybe I will give one of those and try and see which I like best. Well, I am off to prepare for tomorrow night's workshop. If you would like to get some friends together for a fun evening of stamping give me a call. I will provide all the supplies if you provide the friends and a light snack.
Have a great weekend and thank you for stopping by, Tonya

Paisley Print Stamp A Stack

Hello! I am back again today with another Card from my Christmas Stamp-a-Stack. This card was done by the girls with my daughter but I think I will add it to my class in November. Still deciding though so it could change. Today's card once again uses the Paisley Prints Stamp Set that is in the Holiday Mini. The base of the card is my new favorite Christmas color, Cherry Cobbler. The designer series paper is Jolly Holiday. I also used the Teeny Tiny Wishes Stamp Set for the sentiment which was punched out with the Word Window Punch. Love that punch! There is a little Very Vanilla Taffeta Ribbon on the tag which also has Very Vanilla Card Stock and Old Olive Card Stock. The only stamp pad used was the Old Olive Classic Pad which makes this a easy card to duplicate. I of course had to use the Big Shot so I pulled out my new Tasteful Trim Bigz XL Die and created the center scallop trim with Very Vanilla Card Stock. It reminds me of snow on a roof top which may just lead to another project. :) Well, that is all for today's card. If you have any questions please let me know.
Also Stampin'Up! has reduced the price of printing your MDS projects. If you are interested in seeing the new prices let me know. Well, I am off for today. Hope you have a great day! Tonya

Noel Christmas Card

Good morning. Well it is Monday again and time for another Christmas Card. This weekend I had a wonderful time stamping with a group of ladies while my daughter stamped with their daughters. This is one of the cards that the girls made. I cased the layout from last year's catalog and used a little nontraditional colors. The girls tend to like the brighter colors so I used Poppy Parade, Early Espresso, Garden Green and Baja Breeze. They also used Whisper White. The Poppy Parade base was ran through the Big Shot with the Perfect Polka Dots Textured Impressions Embossing Folder to great all those wonderful polka dots. There were three punches used: the Snowflake punch, the Scallop Edge Border and the 3/16" Corner Punch. The stamp set is Big on Christmas. I have used this stamp set so many time over the last few year. It is a great set to have. Blender Pens were used to color in the image with the Classic Ink Pads and to finish off the card a little Clear Tinsel Trim that can be found in the Holiday Mini. Would you like to make this card to your Christmas Card? All the supplies can be ordered through me and I will provide you with dimensions so that all you have to do is stamp, color and assemble. Well, I am off to run errands and prepare for the busy night of running ahead. Thanks for stopping by and have a great day, Tonya
