Tea Bag Folding Stamps

I love the tea bag stamps from Impression Obsession. One of the cubes comes with four different butterflies. This easel card displays all four stamps and a medallion from one of them. I'm teaching a class similar to this card Sunday at Stamp Salado. I'd love to see you there.

The Promise of Bluebonnets

A little cold weather and sunny afternoons brings thoughts of Texas bluebonnets soon to follow. Texana Designs has a wonderful bluebonnet stamp in miniature. I took the stamp and created 8 square tiles for tea bag folding. I love how it turned out!!

I also love the easel cards featured on Splitcoast Stampers a few weeks ago. What a wonderful way to display cards.

Enjoy!

Three Hearts @ Salado

Here are the cards I made last week at Stamp Salado. The instructor was Sally and she started the class with the ABCs of card making.

A - always measure twice and cut once
B - back, always sign the back of your card/artwork
C - copy - photograph or scan your creations, print and put them in an album for reference

I've been collecting the stuff for this embossing templates for a long time. We did the dry embossing on vellum. We did the embossing paste. The third card was double embossed with part of the embossing heat embossed.

Thanks for a great class!!!

Scrappin' Good Time class

I'm going to be one of three instructors at Corsicana's Scrappin Good Time on February 27th. I can't wait. I will be showing how to create three totally different designs using only one tea bag fold. I'm really looking forward to it.

Happy 2010!!!

Holly Berry House Class

These are the two medallions I made at a class last weekend at my lls. My partner "in crafting" was sick, so I had to go alone. It was lots of fun and the projects turned out super!

Holly Berry House Nutcracker

Wow... I've been having fun playing with scissors, glue & glitter!!! I made this card for my boss this year. Plenty of room for the staff to sign. Too much fun!
