Feeling Sentimental Masculine Card

Happy Monday!

It's a bit blustery out there today!  A good day to stay inside stamping.

That brings me to the the subject of todays post.  Today's card is a masculine card that we will be making as part of my all day stamping class on February 23.  There are four different classes that I'm offering on that day.  You can take just one, or you can take all four.  

Each class is $30 and includes at least $18 in products that you will use and then take the rest home with you.  If you register for at least three of the classes, you get to choose a free sale-a-bration product and if you register for all four, you save $20 and pay only $100 for the entire day (plus you'll be getting all those fabulous stamping goodies!)

This is one of the cards we will make in the masculine card class:

It features the Feeling Sentimental stamp set and the Parker's Patterns Designer Series Paper.  Feeling Sentimental is a Sale-a-bration set and you can get it free when you spend $50 by March 22.  I think this is becoming the most popular of the Sale-a-bration offerings.

I'm so very excited about this all day stamping class.  It is going to be so much fun, and a wonderful way to spend a winter Saturday!  You can download the information and registration form by clicking here  Prepaid registrations must be received by February 11.  You can mail me a check or if you call, I can also accept a credit card.  Don't wait!

Happy Stamping!

Father's Day card

I know Father's Day was last weekend, but I thought I would share the card that I made for my father-in-law.  It is a fairly generic looking card that could be used for multiple occasions:

Materials: Everything Eleanor and Delightful Dozen    

Card stock: Very Vanilla, Cherry Cobbler, Always Artichoke, and Night of Navy

Ink: Night of Navy classic pad and Versamark pad

Accessories: Big Shot with Apothecary Accents Framelits and Adorning Accents Edgelits, Clear Embossing powder, Paper Piercing Tool and Essentials Paper Piercing pack, Regals brads, Denim ribbon, Stampin' Dimensionals

I worked this card up Saturday evening in about ten minutes.  It really just came together very nicely and I was quite pleased with it.  I'm having a lot of fun with the new framelits that just came out.  For this one, I cut the words out with the shape and then I cut two more out of Night of Navy card stock.  Then I overlapped them behind the words to create the layering effect.

The other part of this card I like is the effect of clear embossing on dark card stock.  Every time I do this technique, I always wonder why I don't use it more often!

Happy Stamping!
