MAY'S MEDLEY-MEN AND MINI NOTE CARDS





This month we will be making two men's cards and two mini note cards.  We also will be learning how to make our own envelopes using the Envelope Punch Board.



I am so excited that Close to my Heart came out with a stamp set with tools.  This set is called "You're the Best" (C1571), found on page 87 of our Spring/Summer 2014 catalog.


We will be making this Father's Day card using the "You're the Best" stamp set.  I used our White, Kraft and Pacifica card stock for this card.  I also used the background paper from the Balloon Ride paper packet (X7180C).  I embellished the card with our Black & Grey Epoxy Bubbles and Silver Shimmer Trim.





The Gone Fishing card is designed from our "Catch You Later" (D1580) stamp set, found on page 51 of the Spring/Summer 2014 catalog.  


I used the Colonial White card stock for the base of this card.  I also used the background paper from the Timberline paper packet (X7182B).  Both of these cards could be used for Father's Day or Birthday depending on your need.


Who can't use a note card?  These next two cards were made from our Mini stamps found on page 119 of our Spring/Summer 2014 catalog.  The first card was designed by Gail Gross, using the "Parasol" (M1040) mini stamp.  I used  the "Perfect Polka-Dot Day" (M1036) stamp for the second mini card.  






Both these note cards are 4 x 4 in size.  I used both our Silver Shimmer trim and Glitter paper on them.  We will be making envelopes for the two mini cards.   The flowers on the Perfect Day card were cut from the Cricut using our Art Philosophy Collection.

APRIL STAMP CLUB




IVY LANE Workshop on the Go Cardmaking Kit




This month will be using one of Close to my Hearts cardmaking kits.  These kits come with all the materials, exclusive accessories, and instructions to create 15 beautiful cards (5 each of 3 designs) inspired by Jeanette Lynton!

 The beauty of  these cards is that we can use them for several occasions, Mother's Day,  Birthday, or as a Friendship card.  The choice will be yours!
We will be making one of each of these designs in our April class.








There is a change in class dates for the month of April.  I will only have one class on Saturday, April 12th, but will be offering two times:

                    9:30 am  FULL

Cost of class is $10 and includes all the supplies to make the three cards above.  Please email me at lavenderose.2@gmail to reserve your spot.  Please indicate which time you would like to attend.
