November Card Class...

I am finally getting to post the cards we made at class. (I know - what a slacker!) One of these cards you have seen because I did it for the Blog Hop last month. A few card class members liked it so why re-create the wheel? I hope you enjoy! Next class is December 11 @ 7pm.


This is a simple card but still has some 'wow'! It looks much better in person because you can see the shimmer!

I love this card. The photo doesn't do it justice and it's so glamorous! I have to admit - I cased this one. I loved it so much, I couldn't help myself!

Sentiment inside but they varied

I am SO buying this!

Have you considered purchasing a Big Shot but didn't want to spend the money? Well, it's on sale Monday Nov 19th only for 20%. (whoo hoo!) But ..... there is an alternative! If you love the textured embossing folders like I do - this item will be so helpful!


This is called the Texture Boutique by Sizzix. Because of our special partnership with Sizzix, we are offering this to our demonstrators and customers for a limited time. This item embosses only. Personally I bought one to reduce the line for my Big Shot at card classes. It's a handy and portable item that will gop on the crafting table and can be passed around. It's pretty light and looks like a little purse!

We have 4,000 available to be sold only while supplies last. If this product test goes well, we may offer the Texture Boutique again in the future.

The Texture Boutique works with Textured Impressions Embossing Folders to transform ordinary cardstock, paper, metallic foil, or vellum into an embossed, textured masterpiece. Great holiday gift idea at a great price point!

Texture Boutique ......... $29.95, item code 132657
Comes with the machine, 2 embossing pads and Mylar Shim
 
Texture Boutique Bundle .....$39.95, item code 132700
Comes with the machine, 2 embossing pads and Mylar Shim. Also ... 2 SU exclusive embossing folders: Flower Garden & Stripes

LOTS! Going on at Stampin' Up!

These guys at Stampin' Up are keeping me busy. As some of you know, not only do I sell Stammpin' Up! as a demonstrator, but I also work in Demo Support at the corporate office. Contrary to popular belief - I don't know about things in advance - maybe a day or so if we need training, but not much! They are worried we will get too excited about things and blab... (who me?)

Anyway ........ guess what is coming your way?

Welcome to the November Stamp to the Max Blog Hop!

Thank you for continuing the hop. You just left the creative work of Elizabeth Harris.

Some of you may be wondering - why "Stamp to the Max" Blog Hop? Well Maxine is my Stampin' Up! upline. Since I am part of her group, I am part of the hop!

Anyway .... I really like the Christmas card. It's fun, festive and modern looking. I hope you like it too!


I really strive for clean and simple cards - but I don't quite make it work. I always feel like adding more! While this card was not hard - it has lots of texture!

Supplies are all Stampin' Up!
