Postal Collage Coastal

 


These cards are from a very recent virtual event sponsored by Firefly Farm called S'Mores Edition of the Creative Crates. These 2 cards are from the Waffle Flower class taught by Lea Lawson.  

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 class used a newer Postage Collage stamp set from Waffle Flower and it was so fun to use!   The stencil set we used is called Coastal and we also received some printed words.  We also got the Just a Note die and backer.  We also received all components to make 3 cards. But, somehow I got some water on the first card I made and I had to toss it.  So, here are the two remaining.  We did some a lot of ink blending with the fun postage stencil. 

 




That was my last class from the event. On to another!

Summer Fun

 


These cards are from a very recent virtual event sponsored by Firefly Farm called S'Mores Edition of the Creative Crates. These 3 cards are from the Pretty Pink Posh class taught by Mindy Eggen.  

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 class used a newer bundle from Pretty Pink Posh and it screamed SUMMER!  The stamp set and matching dies we used is Seashells and the stencil is called Summer Words!   We also received all components to make these 3 cards.  We did some ink blending and Copic Coloring. We also made a shaker card with sand--so fun!

 


I have one more classes to go--hoping to do it today.

Keepsakes From the Heart

 


Today is the day of June and I am posting a card 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 17th 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 the recent Firefly Farms Creative Crate S'Mores Edition!

This card were created by Melissa Miller and Pinkfresh Studio.  The bundle is called Keepsakes of the Heart and includes a stamp set, coordinating dies, a stencil and I also bought the set of matching press plates.  Melissa shared some ink blending tips and we made this sweet card.  I added a sentiment from my stash instead of using the one from the kit.






I have two more classes from this event and hope to finish them this week!

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, but we have all promised to post cards that we have missed the making along the way!
