Valentine card class

The last card class was mostly Valentines however we did do a Christmas card. The goal is to try and do a Christmas card each month so we have a nice collection at Christmas time.

Here is the front of the card. Fairly simple. Love the embossing folder. The stamp is from Stampin Up. I punched it out with a Stampin Up punch. 

The inside was a pop up. I did it with a pop-n-cut die. 

Here is a side view. 

 This is a card in the box card. It folds flat in the envelope. Kind of amazing. Here is a link to a tutorial. Not the one a I used but one like it. http://monicas-passions.blogspot.com/2013/10/card-in-box-video-tutorial.html   This is one of the original ones. Mine is smaller to fit in a smaller envelope.

Most of the punches and stamps are Stampin up. Last year, I got a set of heart stamps with a matching die from Archivers. The set is by Hero Arts called Stamp & Cut.

The card in a box took a long time to put together so I did a simple Christmas card. The stamp and die are from Stampin Up. The paper came from Tuesday Morning.

Valentine's Card from class

Here is another card we did for class. This was just last week. We did 2 cards and a little die cut basket. This was one of the cards.

The base card stock was metallic. It was kind of like foil covered. The white paper was my favorite Georgia-Pacific white cardstock from Walmart. The dies were from Spellbinders. The stamps were Stampin Up. The shading was done with Stampin Up ink as well.

Valentines to my Husband

This is the card I did for my husaband for Valentines Day. The tree is done with my new cricut. The hearts were done with a hole punch. Inside it says" Grow old with me-The best is yet to be.

Quick Valentine

I did this for my husband last week. I was busy doing things for my new job so I didn't get it made until Valentine's Day morning but I thought it was important that the husband of a cardmaker get a valentine.

The stamp contains all the hearts. It is made by Inkadinkado and designed by Dawn Houser. I stamped it twice on white paper. Them I cut several of the hearts out and attached them back on with dimensional adhesives to give it more depth.  Then I attached it to a red piece followed but a sheet of paper that was dry embossed that I received in a swap, The base card is red. I always have a white sheet of paper attached inside the card when the base card stock is dark and I used a need border punch on that.

Have fun card making!!

Valentine's

While in Illinois, I made this Valentine for a JustCard's swap. The heart was from an image swap and the hÄnglar and stÄnglar stamp was a gift from Annika.  I colored with colored pencils and bended with OMS. The skin and hair was done with copics.

I also did Valentine's with my neice. She colored the image and I made the card for her. This is for her teacher. We also did cards for her class but I don't have a picture.
