My Valentine's Day Cards

I found one of my extra Valentine's Day cards that I sent this year. I did a clear acetate card. I really like the look but acetate is not easy to stamp on. The stamps are from Artistic Outpost's Cutie Pie set. Thanks for looking! :)

Here it is! Card number four for Dianne's party. The technique is triple fold and it fits in a business size envelope. The picture does not show the background colors done with chalks. It looks better IRL. :)

I was playing with a new technique today called mono-masking from the latest Technique Junkies Newsletter. Here are some samples using all Stampin' Up materials. The "Sew Glad We Are Friends" card is the 3rd sample for Dianne's card party. It is an easy, fun technique that can be done with just a few basic supplies.

I'm on winter break! YEAH!!!!! I created two of the four cards for Dianne's Stampin" Up party next Sunday. One uses the paper tole technique to give the flower dimension and the other is a gift card holder with a belly band.

Last Sunday, the Tart and Tangy class was a success! Look for new classes soon!

Hi, Stampin' Up Friends,

If you purchase the set, "Just Buzzin' By," from the newly released catalog, you will receive a free set of detailed instructions for making two great cards and a coordinating scrapbook page with the stamps from the set. The designer of these items is Andrea Walford. This offer is only good through me. Take a look at the sneak peek pictures!
