March Class Projects & Product Inspiration

This month in class we made three cards including a simple fancy fold which featured the Elephant Parade stamps from the big catalogue- p.48. 

We made a gatefold card, added some Like an Animal DSP, (p. 45 of the mini catalogue - see the sampler for this fabulous foiled paper).  

The next card uses the Share a Milkshake bundle from Stampin’ Up! (P. 12 mini catalogue).  We did laugh as it was actually snowing on the Wednesday class - so not exactly seasonal, but I wanted to use it before the catalogue retires! 

We made the embossing on the cone pop by adding Crumb Cake ink with a Blending Brush and finished the ice cream with Wink of Stella for extra sparkle. 

The panels down the side are made using the Fine Shimmer paper from the mini catalogue p.15 - it is just gorgeous in real life and comes in 12X12 sheets. 

The final project was made using the Amazing Year stamps from the big Stampin’ Up! Catalogue (p. 28) along with the Jar of Flowers stamps (p.95) and matching Jar punch p. 154. 

We stamped the jar and then separately punched the jar in Vellum and overlaid it on the image to create the glass effect. 

Watch the video below to see some tips for all these cards as well as how to adhere the vellum without it showing.
