April Club Project - Reverse Masking

I wanted to share our April Club projects with you

This first technique, Reverse Masking, was shared recently by Dawn Griffith

I loved her projects!!  

Aren't those colors just absolutely stunning?  Coastal Cabana and Highland Heather

I have a little tutorial for this, plus you can view my video of all the April Club Projects below

 

Cut two pieces of Whisper White Card Stock 5" x 3 3/4"

Using the Layering Ovals dies (largest die) cut out oval from one Whisper White piece

Layer the oval over the full card - use some removable adhesive to adhere them together

Sponge Coastal Cabana ink over one side

Sponge Highland Heather ink on the other side

Remove the "mask" (can be saved for another time) 

Stamp images in Tuxedo Black Memento Ink

Using the 3rd from largest oval cut out another oval

Adhere the card piece to the front of card base with Stampin' Dimensionals

Slip the center into the oval and adhere directly to the card base

Isn't that neat!!

Beautifully Braided Stamp Set

The Beautifully Braided Stamp Set is SO gorgeous 

I received this card in a swap recently shared by Deb McCahan

Truly a stunning card combined with the now retired Golden Honey Specialty Designer Series Paper

Deb stamped the Ginkgo Leaves and embossed them with gold embossing powder.  She then fussy cut them and added them over the gold/black designer series paper

And, of course, the braided border at the bottom is a perfect backdrop for the gold embossed sentiment

May Stamp of the Month - Grace's Garden

Wonder what the Stamp of the Month Kit is?  If you have ever purchased stamps and accessories and then didn’t know what to do with them when you received them, I have the solution.  You purchase the kit, and I will send you the products and three projects to do up immediately.  The kit includes the stamp set and whatever else I choose in making the card kits.  I don’t include adhesives, ink and stamped images (per Stampin' Up rules), and you can substitute what you have.  These projects are fun and easy to do.  I will send you a pdf file by email with the instructions and pictures for each project and the actual product to make three projects will be included in your kit!

Plus I will include additional samples that you can use to create even more cards and projects!!

For this month I'm choosing the Grace's Garden Bundle

Garden Gateway Dies

These products sell for $47.50 plus you would pay $6.95 shipping for a total of $54.45

I'm offering it to you for $48

 

What you receive 

1.  Grace's Garden Photopolymer Stamp Set

2.  Garden Gateway Dies

3.  Three projects ready to put together including the cut card stock, any dry embossing I use and all the embellishments

4.   A pdf file emailed to you when I mail out the kits with pictures, step-by-step instructions AND additional ideas so you will be able to use your stamp set immediately!   I always include at least 10 samples so you will have tons of inspiration!

If you already have these products, you may substitute any products in any current catalog for the same price (to total $47.50).  If you sign up for six months, the shipping is free.  Otherwise I will include $7.55 for priority mail shipping of the kit to you in your total.   

I take Visa, M/C, Discover, American Express and paypal (I will send an invoice when I place the order.)

I will be placing the order on Wednesday, May 6th and will send out the kits around May 15th (give or take depending on the shipping to me!!)

Here's one card we will be doing

I copies this from Amy K as I just LOVE it and haven't time to make it up

New Beginnings

Here is a sweet card 

I received it in a swap and I must have lost the tag, so not sure who to give credit to!!

But the card is precious

Quick card to make

The Basic Pearls are colored with Blends - not too sure what color, but they are stunning!  Maybe Balmy Blue!

The sentiment comes from the Power of Hope Stamp Set (Sale-A-Bration Item this is retired!)
