Technique Class Cards

Card #1 PEEK-THRU PUNCH RIBBON CARD. Customers chose one of three In Colors, the "Merry Christmas" card was just a sample showing another possibility of what could be done with this technique.   I saw this card demonstrated at Convention and knew I just had to try it. It's perfect with this month's ribbon promotion!

cs- whisper white 8-1/2" x 5-1/2", 4" square of primrose petals, summer starfruit, or midnight muse

Convention Swaps, Border Frame

This swap I received from Brenda Blum has a fun border frame made with the dotted scallop ribbon border punch, I've been wanting to try something like this for a long time!

Convention Swaps, chocolate

This card is making me hungry! It's by Olive Barnes, a member of the Inkerbelles group I'm in.

:( I really feel like stamping today, but can't because our carpets were cleaned. Hopefully they'll dry quickly!

Convention Swaps, Stained Glass Technique

I love this swap I received at Convention from Terry Morrelli. I want to recreate it in a class since I have almost everything she used! I don't think I have ever taught the stained glass technique, either, so that would be fun.
