August 16, 17/2014, A Buffet of Christmas Cards

 

Some spent the day and some just spent a couple of hours, but all had fun stamping a few (or sometimes a lot) of Christmas Cards.  A Buffet is just that – different selections to choose from and then fill up your ‘plate’ with just one or two (or more) of each or just one of each of your favourites.  Just like a real Buffet!!

The next one is September 20 (Devon) and 21 (Edmonton).  Don’t miss it!!  Contact me right away so I can send you photos of the card designs you can choose from.

Here are the cards we did…

August 11/2014, Three Quick Cards

 

We used

• the SImply Scored diagonal plate to get those score lines on the Happy Birthday card
• one of the new In Colours – Mossy Meadow – was the base for the Thinking of You Card
• the Work of Art stamp set and last year’s In Colour – Coastal Cabana – to create a clean and simple one layer card.

August 8/2014, Stamp Camp at the Pioneer 73 Club

A leisurely morning of stamping with even time for a coffee break!!
Cards included the paper pierced window, some different ‘greenery’, a little fussy cutting and a fancy fold. 

July 14/2014, Three Quick Cards

 

A little die cutting, some fancy scissor work (easy with the use of the Fancy Scissors!), some plain ordinary 2-step stamping and 3 cards were made so quickly!

June 9/2014 Three Quick Cards

 

Three Quick All Occasion Cards. 

June 2/2014 Seniors Week in the Devon Library

What better than a bookmark card for a project in the libary!

We used the perforating blade and the rotary handle on the Stampin Trimmer to create the bookmark that is attached to the card and decorated ready for gift giving.

May 24/2014, Spring Fling–a Stamping Extravaganza!

This was one of those FULL DAY of stamping events. 

These cards used the Watercolor Mini Cards in the Occasions Mini Catalogue.  Made some quick and easy cards.

And the rest of the day was spent with these cards.  New techniques, new products, new tools and a couple of out-of-the-ordinary card formats.
