The third project from my recent Card Making Class is this leafy design.
It uses the Simply Leaves Bundle and the Textured Tree Ring 3D Embossing Folder, both from the Online Exclusives range.
For this project, my colour combination is Golden Glow, Old Olive, Pumpkin Pie and Pecan Pie, with Basic White. Crumb Cake is used to make the tree rings.
First the two larger leaves are stamped and punched using the Simply Leaves Bundle.
Next the smaller leaf is stamped and cut out by hand.
Using a square of Crumb Cake, this is embossed and cut out to create a slice. It is then given some more depth using a Crumb Cake Stampin’ Pad and a Blending Brush.
A sentiment is then stamped. This is from the Framed & Fabulous Stamp Set from the Hot Foil range.
Skeleton leaves are then stamped behind where the slice will sit.
To assemble, the slice is stuck down first using Tear & Tape, followed by the two larger leaves.
A length of Linen Thread is then added to create a swoosh.
The smaller leaf and sentiment are then stuck together, with the leaf covering the edge of the sentiment.
This piece is then raised up using Dimensionals.

Last week’s Card & Cuppa project saw the return of the Safari Smiles Stamp Set.
You may recall I designed this project for my Card & Cuppa for Children Class, and my adult session decided they wanted to make one too!
For this version, I’ve used the lion family trio, instead of the elephants.
I also made this one into a congratulations card to welcome a newborn.
The greenery on this project uses the new Wrapped Greenery Stamp Set from the brand new September-December Catalogue. It is stamped in Garden Green and coloured using Stampin’ Blends.
Using Early Espresso, the lions are stamped, then again coloured using Stampin’ Blends in Golden Glow, Pecan Pie and Lemon Lolly, with Timid Tiger for the noses!
These are then layered and added to the background using Dimensionals.
Finally, a sentiment is stamped and also raised up on Dimensionals.

Today I’m sharing the second project from my recent monthly Card Making Class.
The theme for September’s class was ‘Mostly Men’, so the projects all have a slightly more masculine feel to them.
This design uses the Gears & Textures Stamp Set and coordinating Dies.
My colour combination is Gray Granite, Cajun Craze and Crushed Curry, with Basic White.
First, the splats and spatters are stamped on the background to give a workshop feel. A bit of extra shading is created using a Blending Brush.
Next, the gears and chain are cut out in Gray Granite using the Dies. They are then coloured in Cajun Craze and Crushed Curry, using Sponge Daubers.
A shape is then punched using the Triple Banner Punch and a sentiment from the coordinating Banner Sayings Stamp Set is added. This discounted Bundle can be found in the new Catalogue.
To assemble, the chain section is cut and stuck to the project, leaving a space in the middle for the sentiment to sit on.
All of the gears, apart from the largest one are then stuck to the project.
Finally, the sentiment and large gear are added using Dimensionals.

At the weekend, I held my monthly Card Making Class.
September’s theme was ‘Mostly Men’, where the projects had a more masculine feel to them.
The first project of the four made during the class is this stripes project. If you’ve been with me for a while, you will recognise this as a regular design I create. I have made many of them over the years.
For this project, I used the Wood Grain Wonders DSP from the Online Exclusives range.
I also chose Early Espresso and Basic Beige for my layers to coordinate with the colours in the DSP.
First, a sentiment from the new Framed & Fabulous Stamp Set from the Hot Foil range is stamped in the bottom corner.
Hot Foil Stamp Sets are found at the Hot Foil range in my online store. Don’t forget to check out that section as they are still to use in your ‘regular’ projects.
Then, each stripe was arranged and stuck down in the pattern, with the overhang cut away.
Finally, three Antique Pearls are added.
I love the simplicity of these striped projects, plus, they are a great way to use up your DSP or scraps.

One of my Card & Cuppa attendees had asked me for a sympathy card, so last week’s class project used that idea to create this design.
It uses the new Tile Garden Stamp Set from the new September-December Catalogue, and the very versatile Framed & Fabulous Stamp Set from the new Hot Foil Range.
My colour combination for this design uses the In Colors of Crisp Cantaloupe, Peaceful Pine and Darling Duckling, plus Basic White.
First, the sentiment was stamped in the top corner. My sentiment is ‘just because’ for an any occasion card, but the attendees had a choice of sentiments they could use.
Next, the stems were stamped. Each one was at a different height and angle to create a more natural look.
Then, the large and small flower heads were added. Each flower head was then coloured using a Stampin’ Blend and given a touch of Wink of Stella Sparkle too.
Finally, some coordinating In Color Butterflies were added across the card.
This project is a quick and easy design, but I love the overall effect.
