I didn't have a particular theme for this month's class, but as usual I wanted to showcase different stamps, accessories and techniques.
This card features the pretty Birthday Basic papers, and the Cupcake Builder Punch and Create a Cupcake stamp set. This stamp set is retiring at the end of June!
The crumb cake card is based on a design I found by a German demonstrator on her on her blog Stampin Club. It uses one of the Gorgeous Grunge stamps to create a spritzed effect background, then we used washi tape and itty bitty punched flowers to decorate. The sentiment is from Label Love.
A very simple but effective card and a favourite among the ladies at the class! The bow is made using the envelope punch board. There's loads of YouTube videos and tutorials out there for different ways to make bows if you want to google it, but I used this easy to follow tutorial for my bow.
Our fourth card was another simple but effective card using only 2 colours - Island Indigo and Soft Sky. The stamp is Flowering Flourishes - one of my favourites!
I host these regular classes on the second Thursday of every month at my house and they are becoming more and more popular. I have ladies who come every month and hate to miss one, and also I have new faces come along. Everyone is welcome and it's a really relaxed, friendly evening! See my classes and events page for details of upcoming classes.
