Tea Bag Folding Card Class at Lone Star Retreats

featuring Texana Designs Stamps



I will be teaching a class on tea bag folding Saturday afternoon at 2:30 on August 28th at Lone Star Retreats. This will not be your ordinary tea bag folding. You will be stamping and using a tea bag guide to create unique tea bag folding tiles. Then you will create a medallion using the square fold variation of tea bag folding. You will have your choice of a sentiment by Texana Designs for your cards. You may choose to make the star card for $10 (approx 1 hr) or both cards for $18 (approx 2 hrs). The class is open to anyone interested, but space will be limited. You will want to sign up as soon as possible. Email: janetsgems@flash.net for registration or questions.

Oh my...

where does the time go? Here it is already July and I haven't posted since May!!! Sorry about that folks. I've been busy creating new card classes. Last week I was at Stamp Salado, the week before I was at Wendaful's. Prior to that Jimmye Sue and I made a trip south to Scrapbook Haus. My next adventure will be in Georgetown at Lone Star Retreat on August 28th, then Lakeway at Scrapology on September 11th and back to New Braunfels on September 18th. Hope to see some of you along the way! Check back soon to see samples.

Tea Bag Corner Tile Guide - Step by Step

I've taken my tea bag folding to the next level. I've designed acrylic tiles so that I can use any small stamp to create unique tea bag folded medallions. The pictures below show how to use the tiles. Click on the image if you would like to view a bigger image.

Tea Bag Folded Kite


This card design was used for a class in February at Scrappin' Good Time. I took it a step further here and colored the posts and grass of the cool fence stamp available at Texana Designs. The kite was in two colors and I used stickles to give it a little sparkle. It was a get well card for Joyce, who created the stamp. It's a pleasure to be surrounded by such wonderful talent!

Stars of Texas



This is one of the cards that I taught at Stamp Salado last month. It was hard to choose which design I liked best. I enjoyed using the Texas Stamps from Deadbeat Designs. They were the perfect finishing touch.
