Stamp Class

I had a stamp class earlier this week and these are the three projects they did. They each made two of each design! A couple of them are sketch challenge cards from various places, I'll link it lower down! This class focused on new product in the now-current Spring/Summer catalogue (link in my sidebar). Have you seen the new catalogue? It's absolutely fantastic! There are tons of new embellies ... my order is going to be huge and my hubby not so happy ... LOL, just kidding, I've been saving up! If you're interested in having your own catty, I ask $10 for them and I can mail it to you (shipping extra) or you can stop by to pick it up (perhaps come for a class or host a workshop!).

Anyways ... the cards: (can you spy a theme running through all three?)

Happiness

I'm still not too sure about this card ... for me it seems like a little something is missing. I think it needs texture, but I don't have any of the SU Texturz plates yet (my first order will have them in it!) and because it's a class card, I had to stay with in the SUO guide. Still, it's simple but pretty. What do you think?

Stamps: Sweet Stems, Warm Words
Paper: Pink Pirouette, Rose Red, Raspberry Tart DSP, Whisper White
Ink: Stazon™, various for colouring
Accessories: Dimensionals®, Curly Label Punch, Vanilla HPH, Regal Rose wide Grosgrain, Top Note Die

Friend to Friend

This card is a sketch challenge, from 2Sketches4U, by Kazan. I loved the sketch as it felt so different for me. Normally, I may have added a row of brads, but I only had so many and too many class attendees to share them all! The piercing worked and actually I really liked how it turned out. I combined this sketch with a theme challenge by Shellie Gardner, to have a "loving" theme. I think this fits the bill, don't you? I think this is my favourite card of the three!

This one uses everything included in the current "Love You Much" bundle (available until January 31st). You can order this pretty Love You Much Bundle (new stamps, coordinating punch and designer paper, #115405) at a 20% savings!

This card turned out GREAT! I love the colours. I have no idea off the top of my head if this paper is current or retired ... guess I should figure that out, eh? Either way, the colours suit the bee perfectly. I don't think I often use these colours for cards ... need to try it more often! The sketch is from Mojo Monday (#70).

eta: it's not current but I think Pink Flamingo or Good Morning Sunshine would make great substitutes!
