March Camp - First Installment

At the March camp, we made Easter cards and other spring-like cards. Please forgive the photography. I'm no photographer!

This card is actually Whisper White cardstock. Happy Birthday from the Well Scripted stamp set is stamped in Rose Red and punched with the Wide Oval punch. It's popped up on a die cut Top Note that has been textured with the Polka Dot Impressions Folder and the Big Shot. The ribbon is the Pretty in Pink satin ribbon. The Sweet Pea Felt Flowers were glued on using Tombow Multi. The ribbon is tied through a Slot Punch in the Top Note. This card was CASEd from DO Stamping with Dawn.

This card is a modified version of a card found in the Occasions Mini Catalog. The Chocolate Bunny stamp was stamped in Chocolate Chip ink on Close to Cocoa cardstock and trimmed out. The greeting is from the Well Scripted stamp set and it is stamped on a die cut using the Lots of Tags sizzlet and Big Shot. A silver brad is on a flower punched with the Boho Blossoms punch. The leaves are cut in Certainly Celery using the Little Leaves sizzlit, and the polka dot texture is created using the Polka Dot Impressions Folder in the Big Shot...lots of Big Shot on this card, but that's what makes it go together so quickly and look so WOW! The ribbon is the taffeta in Bashful Blue.

This card uses the Fifth Avenue Floral stamp set to create Easter flowers. They are stamped in Basic Gray on Shimmer White cardstock. We used blender pens to color in the stems. The greeting is from Teeny Tiny Wishes.


February Camp!

Below are 5 of the 6 cards we did at my February Stamp Camp! I've been having camera issues and been a bit strapped for time so I've posted the original photos where the cards were CASEd instead of photos of my samples. Some of the cards were modified slightly. Some were great as is and I didn't change a thing!


This card was cased from Julie Bandt on Stampin' Connection.
This Happy Moments card was cased as is from www.simpleandsincere.com.
I believe this Happy Moments card was on Stampers Showcase before the advent of Stampin' Connection. Instead of using the polka dot stamp and scalloped edge punch, I used the border
punch from the SAB brochure. I kept everything else the same. This is a great layout that can be modified to fit a variety of stamps and color combinations.
This pink card uses the new glittered designer paper, Vintage Vogue stamp set, and Well Scripted stamp set from the Occasions Mini Catalog. I cased this from Connie Staples on Stampin' Connection. Instead of the taffeta ribbon, I used the 5/8" satin ribbon.
This Fox & Friends card was cased from Heather Summers blog. We used greetings from the Teeny Tiny Wishes stamp set so it could be made as a little boy birthday or baby shower card.
