Technique Club - Thursday March 25th

Good Morning, just a little update. I moved Technique Thursday to next Thursday, the 25th at 6:30. I have to go for surgery on my wrist this morning and I am sure I won't feel like stamping tonight :). Here is what is on schedule for next week -
Sponged Landscape - featuring Season of Friendship
Bleach Stamping - featuring Greenhouse Garden
Baby Wipe - featuring Petal Pizazz
Stamping on Candles - featuring Inspired by Nature

Depending on how I feel, I will try to post the samples this weekend. Have a great day and enjoy the beautiful weather!!

To Do List - Done!




I cased this from the current Stampin' Up Catalog, but made some changes. I used a large magnetic dry erase board, then took a roll of bulletin board and cut a 6" wide piece to fit across the center of the board and attached with magnets. The DSP is just sitting on the lower half of the board being held in place with the bulletin board - then it can be easily changed. The letters are from Loads of Letters chipboard and covered with Sweet Pea Designer Paper and I used "It's a Plan" to make my To Do lists. The words To Do were cut out using the Big Shot and Simple Serif alphabet set with Chocolate Chip Decor Element Sheets. Magnets were also attached to the back of the Sweet Pea Stitched Felt so I can add additional notes if necessary.


Thanks for Looking! I am working on a smaller version to turn into a class project - once I have that done I will post pictures along with instructions.

PPA 32 - Part 2

We made this card at my club meeting last night. Everyone loved the look and simplicity of it, so I thought it definitely fits the Spring Theme for this week.



Colors are Certainly Celery, Crushed Curry & Whisper White.
I used Fifth Avenue Floral with the making technique for the flowers and lightly outline the petals with a pink watercolor pencil and blended with a blender pen. Easter Wishes is from the Well Scripted set in the Occasions Mini.

Thanks for looking!!
