April Card Buffet RSVP required

Would you like to create hand stamped greeting cards the easy way? The April Card Buffet is next week and features fabulous designs. You just stamp and assemble from the kits provided.

Card Buffet is by RSVP only so there is a seat saved for you.

Please preorder designs using the names above the photo. Please note that the event is 2 hours so if you order all the designs, you will have time to stamp them all during the session but may not have time to assemble them based on how fast you apply adhesives:)

Supplies are limited so RSVP and preorder early for best selection. Thanks!

order as silver gable box, black ice (new and exciting technique!) and balloons

Sessions are Wednesday, April 18th, 1-3pm and Thursday, April 19th, 9-11am. Let me know if an evening or alternate time works better for your group. I can bring a mini buffet to your group too.

If you are providing your own adhesives, pack a tape runner, glue dots, dimensionals, tear-n-tape and green glue. All kinds of new adhesives will be available for purchase too.

Hold on to Hope How To

I shared this card in a Spring and Easter blog hop yesterday. Today, I am sharing assembly tips and supplies used.

Rich Razzleberry cardstock cut to 3 1/8 x 5 1/2 inches forms a mat for the 3 x 5 inch Painted with Love dsp. Gold foil sheets cut to 1 x 3 inches and 1 1/2 x 3 inches form mats under the sentiment and cross respectively. A whisper white 1 3/8 inch circle accents the center of the cross.

The butterfly on the banner did now show up well in the above photo. Here is a close up showing that our mini-dimensionals are the perfect size to flutter this butterfly on the banner.

Make one pass through the Big Shot as shown in the photo below. Nest 2 of the crosses towards the bottom of a 3 x 5 1/2 inch Painted with Love Specialty designer series paper. Both crosses will be cut. I opted to assemble them nested as well. The piece of Painted with Love dsp that has the crosses cut from it is used as a layer on the card.

After passing through the Big Shot…3 2018inkbloghop8-001

Use the regular sized dimensionals to secure the nested crosses. Use glue dots to secure the powder pink shimmer ribbon and linen thread.

The inside is stamped with the same flower image that was stamped three times on the outside of the card too. A piece of 3 x 5.5 inch whisper white provides space for a personal message.

Ink and Share Blog Hop Hold on to Hope

Welcome to our Ink and Share Blog Hop featuring projects made with Stampin’ Up! products designed by fellow Stampin’ Up! Independent Demonstrators. If you are hopping around, you have arrived from Kirsten’s blog. My hop design is below.

I am featuring the Hold on to Hope stamp set and framelits to create a hand stamped greeting card. The Painted with Love specialty designer series paper has gold accents so pairs well with blocks of gold foil sheets. I’ll be making several of these so they are ready for mailing as needed.

The dsp also has painted looking stripes of rich razzleberry and powder pink. So the mat is rich razzleberry attached to powder pink cardstock. Linen thread and powder pink shimmer ribbon encase the crosses.

The inside carries over the stamping on the right border with a whisper white liner to write a personal message.
