87- Sweet Shapes Criss Cross Card


Here is the second card from the sweet shapes class. I wanted to show everyone how to do a criss cross card since they are super easy to make but are very impressive. I also wanted to try the kraft paper for the first time.

Recipe:

Stamp Set: Sweet Shapes

Ink: Basic black

Paper: kraft paper, basic black, bashful blue

Accessories: kraft ribbon, corner rounder, 1 3/8" square punch, slot punch

86- Iridescent Ice Card


This was the first of the cards we did at the Sweet Shapes stamp class. I wanted everyone to do some two-step stamping and use the iridescent ice embossing powder. This is also the first chance I've had to use the textured wild wasabi paper- I definitely need more textured paper because I love the final effect.

Recipe:

Stamp set: Sweet Shapes

Ink: Wild Wasabi, basic black, cameo coral, barely banana, apricot appeal

Paper: textured Wild Wasabi, cameo coral, basic black, whisper white

Accessories: Iridescent ice embossing powder, versamark, black gingham ribbon

85- Magic Card




I learned how to do this magic card when I was at the conference in London. I made this for Becca's birthday because I wanted to make her a different type of card. It's actually pretty easy- you just have to have the scorer on your paper cutter

Recipe:

Stamp Set: Eat cake

Ink: Yo-yo yellow, pink passion

Paper: Tempting turquoise, whisper white, yo-yo yellow, pink passion

Accessories: wheel, versamark, corner rounder

84- Baroque Glossy Card


This was my first time using the glossy white paper. While I liked it and will probably use it again it is important to note that it takes a long time for the ink to dry- I learned that the hard way!

Recipe:

Ink: elegant eggplant, certainly celery

Stamp set: baroque motifs

Paper: glossy white, certainly celery, elegant eggplant

Accessories: certainly celery ribbon, scallop punch, circle punch, double rectangle punch

83- Wonderful You Chocolate Card


This is a nice gender neutral card that I did at the demonstrator night.

Recipe:

Paper: Very vanilla, close to cocoa, chocolate chip

Ink: Close to cocoa, chocolate chip

Stamp set: Wonderful you

Accessories: wheel, ticket corner punch, chocolate chip grosgrain ribbon

82- Baby Shaker Card


I absolutely love this card- I've also made it in pink. It's just the perfect baby card.

Recipe:

Ink: Basic black, bashful blue, yo-yo yellow, only orange

Paper: Barely banana, bashful blue, whisper white

Accessories: Whimsy wheel, so saffron brad, duckie wheel, bashful blue ribbon, acetate, 1 3/4" square punch, corner rounder punch, blue glitter, sticky strip

81- Adorable Fruit Card


Here is my adorable fruit card- I love the tart and tangy set so much. I also bought the white gel pen specifically to do this card. I also used the sponge to put the yellow on the oranges.
