Something Special

Hi everyone,
It is great to be back with another post for the next class.
This time we will be making a Wedding Card and a Money Pocket.

Now days with weddings many people suggest that you give them money as they have everything in their houses already.
I came up with this cute little pocket with the pullout card that you can write a message on then it pop in the pocket with the money.
We will also be making the Beautiful Butterfly card, you can put any sentiment on the inside of the card.

We have been having such hot weather here in Western Australia at the moment so it has been a good opertunity the play with all the beautiful stamps and punches, that I have stashed away in my play room. I love the way all the StampinUp! products cordinate so beautifuly together from the paper to the stamp pads etc.
Till next time happy stamping,
Cheers Gail.

Hi everyone I'm back and ready to go, a little late as things have been quite busy around here.

The first class for the year is a "Valentines Card & Treat" as well as a "Recover Rapidly Card"  using the stamp from Patterned Occasions set out of the Sale-A-Bration mini.

The New 25 Years Seasonal Catalogue is out and it is wonderful so many great new things.
The spend $100 and get a product for free from the Sale-A Bration Mini is on again, what fun.
Take a look and enjoy all the new goodies.

As you can see my Valentines card this year is just a little different to the usual red & white, I thought it would be fun to add more colour. If you don't want to make a Valentine card all you have to do is change the wording.
