Jean's cards for March 8th.

I am finally back to post Jean's card from this week class.  We just had 7 in the class this week.  Lots of people heading home.  Our class 3/22/2016 will be the last we hold this spring.  I believe Jean will be leaving shortly thereafter.  As usual her cards are nice and crisp looking and usually she makes bigger cards.  I love these!

Another Class

It's time again to send you another post.  Has time been going fast for you too?   The weather has been beautiful here.  I wonder  if the saying ''If March comes in like a lamb, it will go out like lion.'' applies to Florida too!  How did your March come in?

I am sending pictures from my 2 cards.  One was inspired by Linda Schuffert.  She sent me a very similar birthday card.  I loved it.  I used blue card stock instead of white.  I used an embossing folder, colored the raised areas with colored chalks using Q-tips.  My second card was inspired by a card I saw on Pinterest.  Using a stamp and cutting die from the SU set  called Rose Wonder and a Die from Rose Garden Thinlets Dies.  First I made 2 similar cards which I liked but decided to it differently,  I used the fern die and cut it out times 2, then backed it with the green card stock.  I had cut several ferns out for my other cards. I used them as a inset to the cut out ferns space.  The background was made using a stencil and sponging green over the stencil.  If you like it, we will try it Hobby Lobby.

Better late than never post.

Here I am again, finally getting to post the cards we did here Feb 22nd.  I didn't get to see Jeans cards till the day of the class.  Poor Jean came down with bad cough and cold.  She felt she had bronchitis.  She called me in the morning and said she wasn't up to getting to class that day.  There were 12 at the class and I did it without her.  Boy I am out practice holding a class all by myself.  I was so tired when we finally finished.  I am not certain if I want to do classes when we get home if I have to hold them by myself.  Maybe I can create the cards and maybe have them ready but doing it by myself?  I will have to think about that.
Anyway on a better note, I will see if I can get these posted.  My 2 cards will be the first 2 and Jeans the second 2.  

Valentine cards I made today

I made 2 cards today and one for my friend Jean and one for Tom.  I wanted to share them.

 The top one is for Tom's

Finally getting to posting cards!

Hi my friends!  Just finding time to get last weeks cards posted.  We had gotten them done a few days early but I couldn't get them posted.  We had 11 students, four of which never stamped before.  We were busy but we did manage to get them done in 2 1/2 hours.  The first cards being posted are mine.  The airplane card is made with a set you can get free!  If interested email me and I will tell you how.  My second card is made from scraps.  This one took the longest  They had to many decisions to make.  I couldn't post one of samples cause my 2 cards disappeared. I had to make another one.

 Jeans cards were special.  I loved the die she had for the poppy.  I called her headhog card a happy card.  He is so darn cute!  I don't remember who made that set.

  They were lighter in color and I thought they were nicer.  I will find them someday buried somewhere. This from the first part of the post.  I don;t know how it got down here.  ????

January 26, 2016 ORO class

Its a raining day in Florida!  I hope the snow they are predicting stays from you  Jean and I have cards to post for you to see.  I got a lot of cutting yet to do on mine.  I am not certain how far Jean has gotten on hers. Well here goes on the trying to post.  Cross your fingers!

 These bottom two are mine this time  I hope this finds you all well,.  God Bless You!

Hi My Friends!  This coming Tuesday I will have a partner working with me this year.  I haven't got to see her cards yet.  I am planning to get with her tomorrow.  I did want to post my two cards for you to see.  

 This is the inside of the card above.  It's a pop out card and I couldn't post it to do it justice.  I used a Sizzix Pop 'n Cuts base and insert.  I just notice the insert is interchangeable.  I will have to see what is available to use in it. Could be interesting!
