November Card Class

Hello! Today I have a card to share from the November card class.  I loved the simplicity of the Spruced Up Bundle! This bundle is perfect for using non-traditional colours as well!  This was based on the original design by another demonstrator, but unfortunately, I can't find the original artists name now (I am so sorry!!!).  Check out the supply list below.

Desiree Spenst-Brewed For You

Hello! I hope your week is off to a good start. Today, I have my friend and fellow demonstrator Desiree Spenst’s card to share! This is a fun masculine card and will surely impress anyone, whether they like beer or not.   This card has some fun visual interest with the patterned cardstock tag and textured background. This adds some extra details without taking away from the main focus of the card, the beer and birthday wishes.  Blue and red are always a great mature colour match for more masculine cards, and this one is no different. I love how...

Jolly Friends Cards

Hello everyone! I apologize for the delay.  I started off on track with this new site, and then a certain tiny human got croup!  He thankfully is getting better, and I will slowly get back on track.  So sorry! I wanted to share some cards that I did for my Jolly Friends Class: I love using white embossing powder on black for the oh-so-trendy chalkboard effect!  For this particular one, I used the following supplies: tams# 10560 Product List Real Red 8-1/2" X 11" Card Stock [102482] $10.00 Emerald Envy 8-1/2" X 11" Cardstock [141415] $10.00 Basic Black 8-1/2" X...
