Here is the card front for the one we will make in class!

Never-Ending Card Sample for class 
You will be able to choose your own colors from my available supply, or copy my design exactly.  My sample uses a So Saffron card base with Baja Breeze designer series paper.  You will also leave class with a sample template with all the measurements on it, so you can make many many more Never-Ending Cards! I hope to see you there!

Happy Crafting!

Introducing… the Never-Ending Card!

I recently learned how to make this really fun and suprisingly simple Never-Ending Card.

It's called this because of the way you open it… and open it…and open it… and so on.  It just never ends!  Because I enjoyed it so much, I've decided to plan a class for you. The project we make for the class may vary… I haven't decided! (Come to the class to see all 4 panels)

The class date will be Friday, June 10, 7 PM. Class fee is $15. You will leave the class with a template to take home with all the measurements and a fully completed card.  Register to attend by June 3rd, either by emailing me and making payment arrangements or using the PayPal link below.

Strength & Hope… Again!

My husband liked the Mother's Day card I made for my mom using the Strength & Hope stamp set (118100W 123660CM), that he asked me to make one for his mom.  (Hoping she isn't reading this and getting a sneak peek!)  I made some changes to the design, but it is essentially the same!

The same supplies were used as the previous card, with changes to the colors (So Saffron & Wild Wasabi here) and I changed the sentiment.  For the "happy mother's day" I used Teeny Tiny Wishes (115370) and the Word Window (119857) and Modern Label (119849) punches.

Mother's Day is coming soon, just next Sunday! I recently purchased the NEW Strength & Hope stamp set, featured in the new Stampin' Up! Summer Mini Catalog.  It's just so pretty, and part of the proceeds from the set benefit the Breast Cancer Research Foundation. With my own mother currently battling this disease I knew I had to get this stamp set.
