TUESDAY CARD CLASSES - Some recent Cards

I selected some of these cards from the last couple of weeks of cards which I taught.  The upper left one is a spinner card which is created with Gina K Designs stamp sets "Triple Play Frame" and "Triple Play Holiday".  I used the Liquid Applique' on the Cupcakes.  On the Tree in the next card, I used the Snow Marker to make the droplets of snow.  The center bottom card is a pocket card which is pulled out at the top.

TWO PAPER DIVAS Design Team Card - A Flower a Day in the Watering Can

I have been forgetting to add this card to my Blog since these stamps were released from TWO PAPER DIVAS.  My students made this card actually before the stamps (the can with he flowers and the sentiment) were released.

TWO PAPER DIVAS:  Stamps are Bloom Wildly and Bloom Wildly Sentiments

Background paper came from a book of 12 x 12 paper

Wink of Stella - clear on the flowers and the spout of the Watering Can

Twine:  I did not have any black twine, so I colored natural tan with a black Copic

I Embossed the Sentiment with Versamark and used clear embossing powder.  These stamps are really pretty special.  

ONLINE CARD CLASS - HOLIDAY STYLE - 11/9/15

Today I started another ONLINE CARD CLASS - Titled Holiday Style!!  I have been taking these card classes for quite some time.  They are taught by some delightful ladies who become like friends while taking these classes!!  What is nice about these classes is you use the stamps you own to create the concepts that are taught.  Julie Ebersole did a darling grouping of trees at the bottom of her card with a variation of some colors.  It is hard to see the slight color change that I did on my card.  Then using a Glue Pad I stamped "tiny" snow flakes all over my card and then sprinkled Prisma Glitter on it.  What a glistening was created.

One of the other ladies, Laurie Willison, did a special card in her video today about using the "rule of thirds" when creating a card.  I did a variation of that by stamping the trees and then the Santa riding off to the moon.

These card classes I so look forward to and if you want to learn some terrific techniques, do yourself a favor and sign up on Online Card Classes.com.  Besides this class, Holiday Style, there are many others to choose from that can be started at anytime......they are forever classes!!!  Great for going back to refer to a specific card or technique!!  Enjoy!!!

TWO PAPER DIVAS Design Team Card - PEACE SNOWMAN

Love this new snowman stamp ....... thanks to Two Paper Divas!!  This chunky glitter is awesome as a background.  I stamped on watercolor paper with Versafine black ink and then embossed with the "clear" embossing powder.  Using my Tombow watercolor pens ..... the snowman got his personality.
My clear Wink of Stella pen gave it all its final touch.  Happy Card Making!!!

OCTOBER, 2015 TUESDAY WITH CARRYN CARD CLASSES

TWO PAPER DIVAS DESIGN TEAM CARD - Just hangin around!

What a darling set of stamps from Two Paper Divas.  This one can be found on their website and under the clear stamps titled "Branching Out".  I love Birdies and so do my weekly students.  This set has 11 stamps to choose to make a very fun creation.  This is the funniest little "fat bird" - thanks Mel and Gayla!!

All the goodies in the picture kinda tells the story of product which I used, beyond the mentioned TPD stamps.  The little container of sequins came from who knows where.  BUT, I have 72 of those filled with sequins and stones and they are all held in one flat container with a secure top and that is my favorite purchase this summer!!!  I found it on Amazon.  Ask me if I need another one ..... you betcha!!!

Hope that you have fun with this cute stamp set!!!

TWO PAPER DIVAS DESIGN TEAM CARD - Mts. and Birdies all lined up

I will be back to do this write up!!!   Trying to finish up cards for 12 students on Tuesday!!  Okay ... I am back.  It is Sunday morning and it is cloudy and off and on rainy.  I cannot see our beautiful Mountains out our kitchen window (or any window on the front of the house for that matter).  So,  I at least can enjoy the Mts. which are on this card.

Being a Designer for TWO PAPER DIVAS I always like to dig in my "stash" of wonderful stamps by these two creative genius of TPD (Gayla and Melissa).  This card is no exception ..... the Mts. were created several years ago because of my students living among these gorgeous San Juans and they needed a Mt. stamp.  So as they say .... "wallah" !!  Melissa, Gayla and Rene (Melissa's trusty Manager of her paper crafting store at the time in Kansas City) along with the "Road Trip Gals" from Kansas were out here in our beautiful Pagosa Springs, CO and were doing a RETREAT for our Crafty Gals here when the idea of the Mts. became necessary.  Lots of memories and so much fun.

Okay, I am finished reminiscing ....... here are the three stamps sets which are used for this simple card:

TWO PAPER DIVAS:  Christmas Clothesline; Wanna Hang Out & Mountains

StampinUp:  The punch - have always loved this punch!

Now it is time for me to eat breakfast and get dressed and start my day of finishing up THE cards for Tuesday's classes.  Have a great rest of your weekend!!!
