Happy Watercolor and Watercolor Wonder DSP

I had the honor of attending SU's Red Carpet Premier in Raleigh, NC and I am now the proud owner of SU's 2014-15 catalog.  Just wait until you see their new In-Colors, papers and stamp sets.   Everything is gorgeous, and when you see the catalog, I know you'll say the same.

Two of my favorites from the Spring Mini catalog is the Happy Watercolor stamp set and the Watercolor Wonder dsp.  I am going to be sad to see them go on June 1, 2014. Though I used this very versatile set and paper for my April classes, I just couldn't pass up the opportunity to use them again for my May 2014 classes.

Recipe:  Stamps:  Happy Watercolor, Petite Pairs;  Paper:  Whisper White, Calypso Coral card stock, and Watercolor Wonder DSP;  Ink:  Baked Brown Sugar and Crisp Cantaloupe; Accessories:  Big Shot, Deco Framelits, Square Lattice embossing folder, Banner Punch, Gold Foil, dimensionals.

I hold adult classes each month, and a bi-monthly Kids Camp.  If you live near my home at 555 Williamsdale Road, Graham, NC 27253 and would like to attend any of my classes, please let me know.  Check out my May 2014 class schedule right here on my blog, or on my SU website found Here

If you would like to purchase any of the supplies to make this card, please feel free to contact me directly, or order from my Stampin Up! website found Here


You, Lord are forgiving and good, abounding in love to all who call to you. Psalm 86:5

Hexagon Hive Thinlit and Sponged Background


I wanted to use the Watercolor Wonder Designer Series Paper (DSP) from Stampin' Up! with the Hexagon Hive Thinlit to make this card, because, I have become a DSP addict.  Well, I have four packs of this beautiful paper, and even so, could not decide which design to use, so I decided to make my own background.  Yep, made my own background using Daffodil Delight, Crushed Curry and Tangerine Tango classic ink pads, sponges and sponge daubers.  So easy, just start with your lightest color ink and sponge the color in circular motions until you have the effect you want.  I can't wait to share this design with my ladies who are attending my May 3rd, 6th, 8th and 14th classes.  

The two cards are the same, except for the placement of the Floral Fusion flowers.  By-the-way, the Floral Fusion and Little Leaves Sizzlits are a bargain at just $5.50 each.  Both of these sizzlits are retiring, and you can get them with FREE shipping from April 21-25, 2014, by visiting my SU store Here, and search Floral Fusion Sizzlit or Little Leaves Sizzlit.

Recipe:  Stamps:  Express Yourself, Teeny Tiny Wishes;  Paper: Whisper White, Gumball Green, Tangerine Tango card stock;  Ink: Daffodil Delight, Crushed Curry and Tangerine Tango classic;  Accessories: Big Shot, Hexagon Hive Thinlit, Floral Fusion Sizzlit, Little Leaves Sizzlit, Basic Pearls, Dimensionals

Papillon Potpourri and Hexagon Hive Thinlit


I just received my new Hexagon Hive Thinlit, and it is awesome.  So unusual, and I like unusual, so this thinlit suits me just fine.  I am planning to offer a card similar to this one for my May 3rd, 6th, 8th, and 14th classes using this thinlit.   I will post the new version very soon.  Stay tuned.

Recipe:  Stamps:  Papillon Potpourri, Label Love;  Paper:  Coastal Cabana, Saraha Sand, Crisp Cantaloupe, Night of Navy, Whisper White card stock and Fresh Prints DSP;  Ink:  Night of Navy, Island Indigo, Crushed Curry, ;  Accessories:  Big Shot, Hexagon Hive Thinlit, Crisp Cantaloupe Stretch Ruffled Ribbon, Artisan Label Punch, dimensionals

Hint:  I found it is best to use wax paper between your card stock and the Hexagon Hive Thinlit when cutting.  Be sure to save the little hexagon pieces that are left over, there is a use for them somewhere and sometime.  If you go to YouTube and search Stampin' Up! Hexagon Hive Thinlit, there are videos that showcase this new gem.

In addition to Kids Camp classes, I hold adult classes each month.  If you live near my home at 555 Williamsdale Road, Graham, NC 27253 and would like to attend any of my classes, please let me know.  Check out my April 2014 class schedule right here on my blog, or on my SU website found Here

Everything Eleanor for Mother's Day


I wanted to offer just the right card for my April classes for Mother's Day next month. (I try hard to keep a month ahead of holidays and celebrations).  I thought it might be appropriate to offer not only a card for Mother's, but a universal card that could be used for most any occasion, and these are what I came up with.  I hope you like them as much as I do.  

Recipe:  Stamps:  My Mother, En Francais, Feel Goods;   Paper:  Whisper White, Basic Gray, Rose Red card stock;  Ink:  Basic Gray, Rose Red classic, and Versa Mark; Accessories:  Heat Tool, Dimensionals, Silver embossing powder, Embossing Buddy, Basic Pearls.

Never Ending Joy


Stampin' Up! introduced a new Scalloped Tag Topper punch in the Spring 2014 mini, and when I saw Tanya Bell's video tutorial on how to make a card using the punch, I knew I had to have it.  It does so much more too.  Bookmarks, boxes, bags, tags, just to name a few.  
I am offering this card at my April 8th, 10th, 12th, and 16th classes.  To save time in class, I will have the card base already cut, and if you would like to learn how to make this adorable, unique style card, visit Tanya's blog found HERE.

When I was deciding what stamps to use for this card, a retired set from 2008 jumped right off my shelf and said "use me, I'm perfect".  So of course, that is what I did, even though there are a gazillion other stamp sets in the current catalog appropriate for this card.  

Recipe:  Stamps:  Never Ending Joy;  Paper:  Whisper White, Wild Wasabi, Tangerine Tango;  Ink: Wild Wasabi, Tangerine Tango and Daffodil Delight classic;  Accessories: Scalloped Tag Topper Punch, Watercolor Wonder dsp, Pumpkin Pie 1/8" ribbon.

I hold adult classes each month, and a bi-monthly Kids Camp.  If you live near my home at 555 Williamsdale Road, Graham, NC 27253 and would like to attend any of my classes, please let me know.  Check out my April 2014 class schedule right here on my blog, or on my SU website found Here
