Sneak Peak Projects

Hi! Happy Thursday!!! I wanted to share a couple of projects that we will be creating at my stamp club on Friday night and my Day-Time Stampin' class on Tuesday morning.

A new round of Stamp Club will be starting up on July 10th. We meet on the 2nd Friday of each month. Would you like to join our fun group? I'm looking for a few stampers to join us!! If you are interested in learning more about my monthly stamp club, please contact me at stampwithkaren@aol.com. I'll post more details about my stamp club next week.
Ok, on to the cards...

I first saw this adorable Scallop Circle Dress on Patty's blog here. They are just too cute!!!

Supplies:
Stamps: none!
Ink: none!
Paper: Kraft, Almost Amethyst, Whisper White, Almost Amethyst Prints DSP (retired)
Accessories: Scallop Circle Die, Texturz Plates, Big Shot, White Tafetta Ribbon, Filigree Designer Brads, Dimensionals

Here's another one...

Supplies:
Stamps: none!
Ink: none!
Paper: Kraft, Pink Pirouette, Whisper White, Pink Pirouette Patterns DSP
Accessories: Scallop Circle Die, Texturz Plates, Big Shot, White Tafetta Ribbon, Flower Designer Brads, Dimensionals

I am having so much fun coloring these roses!! I have a couple of roses set aside waiting to complete a project! You can see a video tutorial here showing how to create these beautiful watercolor roses. (I get so much inspiration from Patty Bennett! She is amazing!) The layout for this card is similar to one created by detailmama on SCS here. I used Pink Pirouette and Regal Rose reinkers to color the rose on Shimmery White Cardstock. You will have to trust me...it really shimmers! It's so pretty in real life.

Supplies:
Stamps: Fifth Avenue Floral, All Holidays
Ink: White Craft, Regal Rose
Paper: Whisper White, Regal Rose, Pink Pirouette Patterns DSP, Shimmery White, Mellow Moss
Accessories: White Embossing Powder, Regal Rose & Pink Pirouette Re-inkers, Aquapainters, Little Leaves Die, Big Shot, Dimensionals

Again, we will be creating these cards at stamp club on Friday and my Day-Time Stampin' on Tuesday morning. Hope you can make it!

Take care,
Karen

I received mine today too! I ran out to greet the UPS man! My dog tipped me off that he was here (she always does). I have booked marked my catalogue for samples I'll CASE and made my wish list already!!

I love the new cattie too! I love being a S-U demo!!!!!

Can you give me the blog address of the lady you used for watercolouring your flower? Thanks.

Hi Donna, you can click on the link that I have in the paragraph above the photo of the rose card. It's after the words "video tutorial". It will bring you directly to the tutorial to create these watercolor roses.
