Cool Treats Class-Technique Tuesday

  Doesn't this ice cream cone look good enough to eat?  This card looks like a simple open the card up and look inside fold, but it is actually a triple fold card.  What do I love about this stamp set and matching framelit?

1. Every image has its own thinlit to help you cut it out easily.

2. There are thinlits that place scoring lines on the cone so that it ends up with a 3 dimensional look.

3. There are an amazing 36 stamps in the set and 17 matching thinlits.  Quite a bargain.

  Come back tomorrow to see a WOW card made with this set.

Cool Treats-Miscellaneous Monday

   
 What a two weeks I have had!  Travel to Tennessee to see my granddaughter in a play, classes every day when I returned.  I am glad to be back posting on my blog and to my regular schedule.

   This week I will be posting cards for my product based class to be held on Monday, March 6th at 12:30 or 6:30.  I will  be using the set called Cool Treats, the matching framelits and the designer paper called Tasty Treats. 

    Today's card shows off the designer paper and one of the sayings in the stamp set.  Simple and I love it.

   Check back tomorrow to see a card from the class that shows the tri-fold technique.

Scrapbook Week-Festive Birthday designer paper

 What pictures would you put on these pages? Cammie put some pictures from a family dinner at a Mexican restaurant.  Fun way to use these pages.

I have a class once a month that I call Scrapbook Your Life.  In the class each person makes 2 two-page spreads.  I provide all the supplies including 2 plastic sleeves each month.  

Then, if they bring the pages back the next month with pictures on the pages they receive a surprise gift they can use in scrapbooking.  It might be a piece of designer paper, or some embellishments as a way of saying Hurrah you did it.


Supplies used in these pages:

Festive Birthday designer paper
Birthday Fiesta stamp set
Fiesta Time Framelit

These items are stamped onto the designer paper for added texture.

 Scrapbooking with stamps is a great way to get some really good layouts.  Come back next week to see samples of projects I will feature at my Occasions catalog Open House to be held on Friday February 17th and Saturday, February 18th.

Scrapbook Week-Candy Cane Lane designer paper

This paper just made me smile when I saw it in the Holiday catalog.  So, I made cards and finally scrapbook pages out of the images. Here are the items I used from the Holiday catalog to make these 2 pages.

1. Real Red 3/4" stitched ribbon
2. Candy Cane Lane designer paper
3. Real Red 12 by 12" card stock

The tiny images were easy to cut out and the peppermints were punched out with my 1/2" punch.

Come back tomorrow to see a layout I made with the Festive Birthday designer paper.

Scrapbook Week-Forever Evergreen kit

How did I make this tree?

1. I took one of the pre-cut trees from the Forever Evergreen kit in the Holiday Catalog and cut it in half along the score line.

2. I used the items in the kit that were intended to be used to decorate the tree and decorated by scrapbook pages.

3. I cut the pom pom trim so that when the pages were laid next to each other the trim matched.

This was a fun way to use the items for the 3-d tree in a different way.

Come back tomorrow to see how I used the Candy Cane Lane designer paper to make a really cute layout.
