Label Me Pretty and Stylized Birthday

Another non-Christmas card I am offering in the line-up for my December 5, December 7, and December 9, 2017 Creative Therapy card classes.  This card is so easy, you won't believe it, and I made my own background paper using the Stylized Birthday stamp.  So much fun.

Recipe:

• The base is a 8 1/2 x 5 1/2  piece of Tranquil Tide, scored at 4 1/4. 
• The Calypso Coral layer is 5 1/4 x 4.
• The Whisper White layer is 5 x 3 3/4.
• The piece of Delightful Daisy dsp is 4 7/8 x 1, and the Calypso Coral layer under it is 5 x 1 1/8.
• I used one of the circles from the Layering Circle Framelits Dies and Tranquil Tide cardstock for under the doily.
• The oval is cut from the Stitched Shaped Framelits Dies and Calypso Coral cardstock.  
• The focal point is stamped with Tuxedo Memento ink on Whisper White cardstock, colored with Watercolor Pencils and a Blender Pen, and punched with a Pretty Label punch.
• A little bling was added to give it some character.
• Don't forget to decorate your envelope.
• All done!!!

Tuscan Vineyard for my December 2017 classes

Today I thought I would showcase a non-Christmas card I am offering at my next set of Creative Therapy card classes on  December 5, December 7, and December 9, 2017.  

I offer six cards from which to choose at each class, and of the six, those in attendance can make one each of one of the cards for free, (I like free, don't you?), and this is the card I have chosen. 

I used Thoughts & Prayers for my words, and what if you don't want it to be a "Thinking of You" card?  Easy, just change the words.  It's that easy. 
     

Recipe:

• The base is a 8 1/2 x 5 1/2  piece of Sahara Sand, scored at 4 1/4. 
• The Elegant Eggplant layer is 5 1/4 x 4.
• The Very Vanilla layer is 5 x 3 3/4.
• The strip of Sahara Sand on the Vanilla piece is 1 3/4 x 5.
• The ovals are made with the Layering Oval Framelits dies.
• Easy, peasy, for sure.
• Don't forget to decorate your envelope.
• All done!!!

Seasonal Bells

I've always liked the stamp set, Seasonal Bells, and realized I haven't used it this season😢.  This card is so easy, and I put it together in minutes.  

Recipe:

• The base is a 8 1/2 x 5 1/2  piece of Cherry Cobbler, scored at 4 1/4. 
• The Garden Green layer is 5 1/4 x 4 1/4.
• The piece of Be Merry DSP is 5 x 3 3/4.
• The piece of Cherry Cobbler is 1 5/8 x 4 7/8, and the piece of Be Merry dsp is 1 1/2 x 4 5/8.  I punched the tales with the Triple Banner Punch.
• The Gold Glimmer, Garden Green, and Whisper White circles are cut from the Layering Circle Framelits dies.  I stamped the words in Cherry Cobbler from the stamp set, Star of Light.  Because Star of Light is photopolymer I was able to curve it on the acrylic block.  
• The bells are punched from Cherry Cobbler and Garden Green cardstock.  The star on the Cherry Cobbler bell is cut from the Starlight Framelits Dies.  The little Gold Glimmer stars are punched from a retired SU punch, and I put them on the card with the new Mini Stampin' Dimensionals.  They are awesome, and your get 720 of them for just $4.00.
• I stamped the inside with two bells, as well as my envelope and that's it.  
• Don't forget to decorate your envelope.
• All done!!!
