Cards for All Occasions - Part 2

I'm here again to share the final three cards from the recent 'Cards for All Occasions' class.

First of all (above), a card using the brand new 'Dinkies Robin Birdhouse' stamp which is here on the website.  I used one of the mini kraft scallop cards which can be found here

Next a card made with another of my favourite LC Designs stamps, the fabulous 'Star of Wonder' stamp which you can find here on the website.  The base card can be found here and I dry embossed the card with a snowflake pattern.

And finally a card made using the 'Made for Men' stamp set which is here.  This one is a gatefold card with a little band which fits over the card.

Our classes are held in Irby on the Wirral - you can either come for the day or just the morning or afternoon.  If you're staying all day, you will need to bring some lunch but all other refreshments are provided.  We supply everything you need for the class - pre-cut materials, crafting tools, pens, ink, stamps etc.

We have classes coming up on:

Saturday 24 September - 'Christmas is Coming' and 'Christmas and More'

and

Saturday 19 November - 'Anything But Christmas Part 1' and 'Anything But Christmas Part 2' (two completely different classes)

More details can be found here on the website.

Cards for All Occasions - Part 1

I'm back to share some of the cards I designed for the recent 'Cards for All Occasions' class - a mixture of designs including Christmas and birthday.

First of all (above) a card which I designed to look like a snow globe using the 'We Three Cats' stamp which is here on the website.  The sentiment is part of one of the Dinkies text sets here.

Next a card using one of my favourite LC Designs stamps 'Dinkies Footballing Hedgehogs'.  The image panel is attached to the base card with a little concertina panel and I decoupaged the two footballs to make them 'pop'.  The main stamp is available here and the sentiment stamp is available here.

And finally a card made using the brand new 'Dinkies Row Robins Birdhouses' stamp available here on the website.  This was stamped once and then half of it was stamped again to give three bird houses and three robins.  I paper pieced each robin using kraft paper and then red gingham.

Our classes are held in Irby on the Wirral - you can either come for the day or just the morning or afternoon.  If you're staying all day, you will need to bring some lunch but all other refreshments are provided.  We supply everything you need for the class - pre-cut materials, crafting tools, pens, ink, stamps etc.

We have classes coming up on:

Saturday 24 September - 'Christmas is Coming' and 'Christmas and More'

and

Saturday 19 November - 'Anything But Christmas Part 1' and 'Anything But Christmas Part 2' (two completely different classes
