Hero Arts Stamp-Along

 


Today is the last day of July 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 Hero Arts Stamp-Along, held earlier this month.  These cards are from class from Laura Bassen and Channin Pelletier's classes. 

The three rainbow Celebrate cards were Laura's creations.  The front one with a pink background was the one I made in her class. I did add an extra layer of silver behind the stenciled panel.  The other two cards, along with one I already gave away, were my take on the cards, using a different stencil, background colors and silver paste. 

The floral card was from Channin's class and there are some fun layers on the background.  I really liked the colors she picked for the background and coordinating with the cardstock strips.  I added some glittery enamel dots in the middle of the floral centers.


 



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!  And, there are more pouches of virtual events stacked in my stamp room and another event coming in August.  So--I will be sure to have more Catch-up-Club cards to come!!!!
