Mirricard & Alcohol Inks

 

Today is the last day of June 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 4+ 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 37th month of The Catch Up Club!  Starting on year #4 this month!

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 again from Sarah and The Paper Cut in Appleton, WIS!

These 10 Thanksgiving cards from a Mirricard & Alcohol Inks parts & pieces kit that I recently bought at one of their Comment Sold Sales.  There were enough pieces for 10 cards and I changed the sentiment to Thanksgiving.  I made about 30 cards for our church as we send grocery gift cards to congregants at our sister church in Milwaukee.  The background was already embossed with leaves and I blotted 3 colors of alcohol inks over the gold metallic cardstock.  The leaves were also precut as was the strip of vellum.  The sentiments I used were from 2 Taylored Expressions stamp sets. 

 

Sarah offers many different kinds of classes through the year and kits can be ordered from their website.  I have a few other virtual classes from The Paper Cut that need to be completed.   And, I also have parts of other virtual events and classes from many previous classes!

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 tomorrow or in the next few days but we have all promised to post cards that we have missed the making along the way!  Come back in July to see what else I am behind on!
