Stampin' Saturday March21

 

STAMPIN’ SAT IS MARCH 21!! We begin at 11 and finish up around 1:30-2:00. We will be crafting 2 awesome cards and enjoying a snack in between! As usual, all I ask is $5 *or* an order. If you are on my team, of course you will order from yourself!! Please let me know by Friday, March 20 that you will be joining the fun so I can have your materials ready! You can reach me through my 24/7 store 

Our first card is an absolute knockout of a fun fold – a Floating Accordion Fold! The stamp set we will be using is DELICATE WHISPERS, but this is a fold that looks great regardless of the set and papers! Waaay easier than it looks, and I do the hard parts (cutting) for you! (and you can do your embossing in silver vs white if you'd prefer)                The front is a beautiful, delicate confection...                                                                                                                                     

 and the inside POPS!!

Our second card is a nature themed one using NATURE’S SYMPHONY.  We don't usually do 2 fun folds, but it is just so much fun!! We will be using an inking technique on this one that you may have forgotten about (isn't it great to reconnect with old friends?!) This is another one of those folds that looks great regardless of papers, colors or occasion!

 Can’t come the 21 but *have* to know how to make these cards?? STAMP BY MAIL!!   You will receive all images stamped, colored and cut, die cuts, all *papers cut to the correct measurements, embossing done when required, embellishments and ribbon if needed, **dimensionals if needed, and detailed directions to complete your card - and recreate as often as you like!                                             *Designers Series Papers may vary    **No other adhesives are included

For $15 for 1 card (incl shipping) or $20 for both, on the Monday following class I will mail you the card kit(s) you want and text you the tracking number! Payment is accepted through PayPal  at  teachph@aol.com  (must send using Friends and Family ONLY with no comments, or ppal charges me) – or Zelle. I can invoice you via Paypal or Square for an additional $4.00 (invoice fees are high) Local pickup from my home is available to save you $5!
