10-CARD WORKSHOP IN MAY

 

May is National Scrapbooking Month!
Close to My Heart has a beautiful
paper pack to celebrate.

I will be offering a 10-card workshop using the lovely "Postcard Perfect" papers for you in May.  Everything you need to create the ten cards is included and pre-cut for you!  You only need to bring your adhesives and you are ready.

These cards all include a bit of patterned vellum that is featured in the paper pack.  The colors of the papers are beautiful, and fellow consultant Jacquie Paech has designed these lovely cards making the most of the patterns in the paper.  The sentiments are versatile for whatever your needs are.

The tropical flowers are beautiful on these three cards. There will be several options of sentiments you can choose from for these.

The soft colors on these three cards is so peaceful.  The sentiments on these cards are pretty versatile, but let me know if there is some other greeting you would like to use before you come to class!

 If it's tropical, there has to be a flamingo!  You will notice that there are several options for the sentiment for this card - a decision that will be made at the workshop.

 The final grouping features colors that are a bit more bold.  These colors add to the wonderful variety that this workshop offers!

IT'S A GUY THING! -- MAY STAMP CLASS

With Father's Day just around the corner, we will focus on the men in our lives for our May class.  All of the cards can be used for Father's Day, birthday, or just a thinking of you type greeting.  You will choose on class day.  Let's take a closer look at each of the projects.

May is National Scrapbooking Month, and Close to My Heart is offering a wonderful tropical-themed paper pack with a stamp and a scrapbook layout.  I wanted to incorporate this lovely paper in our class, and fellow consultant Jeanie Burch shared this wonderful Hawaiian shirt card.  The sunglasses hanging on the pocket, complete with plastic lenses, just make this card.  You can use any type of sentiment on the inside.  My brother-in-law will be receiving this for his retirement!  

The new Seasonal Expressions 2 catalog from Close to My Heart will be available to order from by the time you come to the May class, so I thought we should make use of one of the new paper packs - Fresh Air.  I love the rustic look of this paper, but all you have to do is flip the paper to the other side, and you have a much softer feel.  You will decide in class which version of this card you will make. 

Outdoors - whether at the beach or in the wild - is perfect for our guy cards.  This card is clean and simple, but very special.  The gold foil paper is a real highlight.  The space on the right top is not empty.  Though it doesn't show up well in this picture, there are embossed lines.  These are made with your scoreboard!  A simple trick to add a special touch to the card. 

I saved the "special" card for last!  This full card front die is really fun to work with.  But what a surprise when you open it up and find a 3-D box of balloons!  The technique is not at all difficult, but really adds a lot to this card.
