Kids Christmas Card Class

I don't many kids classes anymore but as favour for a friend I did a class on Friday night with 8 kids - aged 8 to 14.

Here are the cards we made:

Originally we had allocated 2 hours to make these cards but my schedule changed and I only had 90 minutes.  I was a bit worried but after the kids arrived and tore open their packages they only looked at the sample cards once and they were off.

The older kids got all 4 cards done - their way - in 30 minutes and the youngest - 8 years old - got hers done in 40 minutes!  They were cardmaking machines and all the cards turned out so nice!

I also included a bunch of die cuts and tags - just in case - for the kids who finished early to work on until we were done.

Until Next Time!

Small Business Christmas Cards

For the last few years I have been doing small business Christmas cards as a favour to a few friends.

No big mail outs - just 20 - 25 cards at most.  I use their preprinted company cards as my base and then embellish with stamps, ink and sometimes glitter.


Here is this year's card for Susan at shift strategy + design.

July Birthday Card

Here is a card I made for a friend - Happy Birthday Shelley!

Since it's a July Birthday I used Flourishes Year in Flowers 2

- Tiger Lily -

and I added a Ruby gemstone for July.

Copics used: YR01, YR04, YR07, YR09, YG13, YG15, B91

Tip: I didn't like the way the stem just ended so I used my Copic fine liner to extend the stem to the end of the die cut.

Until Next Time!

Card of my dreams - Take 2!

Since I had my Copic markers all over my desk I decided to add some YR07 Chinese Orange to this flower image I used in my Card of My Dreams post.  FYI - I stamped the ruffled flower with Memento Ink on Stampin' Up! Calypso Coral cardstock.

I really like how it turned out!

 I know it looks kind of weird in this photo but IRL (in real life) it looks really cool! 

I also added some W3 to the middle of the flower.

I was on a roll so I used this bird cage stamp to make the same card in another version.

Yep - I used my Copics again to colour it in!

Until Next Time!
