French Foliage 3 Card Class & Box




Here is my French Foliage 3 Card Class! I just love this stamp set and I love these colors together, it makes me so ready for Fall!

If you want to have a card class and don't want to come up with cards this is a great way to do it! You can also just use this tutorial to make cards for yourself!
This tutorial uses only 5 colors of paper, one main image stamp set and one word stamp set! This is a great class to show people the versatility of just one image stamp set to make three completely different cards!

There are THREE ways that you can get this class:

1. You can join my team and get it for FREE!
You can get this Three Card Class and box tutorial and materials for FREE and others just like it every month by joining my team of Stampin' Up Demonstrators!

3. Purchase the Tutorial and all of the materials to make this project. You will get all the punched pieces and cut and scored paper that you will need. All you will need to provide yourself is the stamps and ink. If you don't have this stamp set you can easily switch it out with something of a similar size.

Every Little Bit

Changing pace just a little bit, here is a really simple card. I saw a card with this layout on Diane Zechman's blog and really liked it. I thought adding the sponged color in the background would highlight the image a little bit more. I love this little dog from the Every Little Bit stamp set, he is so cute! I punched him out with the Curly Label punch and used the 1/8" Marina Mist ribbon and pearls to highlight him. The saying is from the Friends Fur-Ever stamp set.
Sometimes you just need something simple!

My Sheriff Cowboy Owl Card





Here is my Sheriff Cowboy Owl Card! I love this owl punch! Here is how I made this card:

I used the Decorative Label punch to make the door in Soft Suede card stock. First I scored and inked it with a sponge. I then cut it in half and put in on another piece of paper and cut out around it with a scissors.


For the hat I used the large oval punch. I cut the little bumps into the top of one oval and cut the center section out of the other. Now the top looks like a hat when you overlap them.


I inked with a sponge and then taped the first oval to the back of my owl. The second oval I put on top with Dimensionals and two-way glue so it tips up at the brim.


The gun and star I cut freehand out of paper and the boots are just the middle sized eye circle cut in half. The background of the card is done with the Decor roller in Soft Suede ink on River Rock card stock.


Hope you like him! I wish I had a stamp that said, "Don't mess with the law!"
