Be Very Merry at the Very Merry Card Class!




So I am in total Holiday mode already! I've been working on Halloween treats (already consumed quite a lot), Thanksgiving cards and Christmas/Holiday cards & gift ideas. Somebody get me a candy cane ;-)  I am kicking off with a Very Merry Card Class on Monday in the morning or evening - I hope you can come along! Don't you think it would just feel amazing to be able to send some personal handmade cards this year? I think a card in the mail has increased in value exponentially in recent years with the growing trend to send electronic cards and messages. Don't get me wrong: I love to hear from family and friends in whatever form they choose, but I really treasure those envelopes that arrive in the mail with a stamp on them...  So here is a peek at the cards we'll be making on Monday, 4 each of 4 designs. There will be 2 more classes like this but with different designs so try to come this week if you'd like to make these!
I hope you are having a great week and I look forward to seeing you soon :-)

More cards to give you ideas!

I don't own this stamp set either, but I've borrowed it twice now, once from Penney and once from Stacy so I guess I should break down and buy it ;-) It's called Sparkly & Bright and I love it! Here I made two cards using the little reindeer, really I wanted an excuse to use the little stick on diamonds I was referring too yesterday, LOVE THEM! They don't show up very well on the photograph but in person they are super cute. I used one on his nose and one to dot the "i" of Bright. Remember that if you like any of these ideas you can always substitute color palletes, stamp sets, designer series paper or punch shapes.
Have a great week! Brenda
