Stamp Joy Catch-Up

 

First--I want to wish you a very Happy Easter.  He is Risen Indeed!

Today is the last day of March and I am posting a set of cards for our challenge-The Catch-up Club!  A few of my stamping friends, Darlene, Jeanette and Terry along with myself, have signed up for a number of virtual stamping events in the past 3+ years.  One of the benefits of these events are that they are available to rewatch or even watch for the first time at a later date as they are all recorded. The 4 of us "try" to watch live and chat by texting during the event.  But, life steps in and there are times when one or more of us are not participating during the live.  Then, the kits from sponsors sits in our stamping area until we are ready to watch the video and create.  During one of the events, we decided we needed to push ourselves (and each other) to get some of these events done!   So--we all decided to devote one day a month, the last day of the month for the somewhat procrastinators that we are, to post cards we missed making.  So--here we are in our 15th month of The Catch Up Club!

Reminder--these are not my own designs!  The cards are the designs of the other instructors from these classes.  I am just recreating the cards from the class. This month the creations are from Stamp Joy, a virtual event by Taylored Expressions.  This was a two day event that was held earlier this month when we were in Colorado.  

The first two pictures below are from Friday's class, which was an add on. The top one was called Stretch your Scraps.  We made the cards using strips of cardstock to form many different patterns.  The second picture was the afternoon class called Thrilling 3D.  We used two new embossing folders in unique ways!

 

The next photo shows the cards I made from Saturdays class.  I did skip one class in which 4 cards were made with a floral background we stamped.  I did not like my background, so I will use the pieces for another set of cards.   The toffee slimline on the top left was designed to be a calendar, but I made a card instead.

Taylored Expressions really knows how to do events--virtual and in person.  Love the classes and the teachers too!  And, my friend Jeanette also won an awesome door prize during the event.  Next time I hope it is me!  

I still have more events waiting in their zippered pouches for me! I am still behind, so more Catch Up to Come!

I hope you enjoyed my cards!  Here are the links to the other of the Catch Up Club.  Please be sure to check out Jeanette's, Terry's, and Darlene's blogs.  They may post today or tomorrow, but we have all promised to post cards that we have missed the making along the way!
