Yesterday's Tart and Tangy class - instructions now available by email

Well I had great fun with my ladies yesterday at this class. The bottle hanger went fine, the lollipop card we just had one or two little mishaps but the jackpot card was very challenging (this was definitely advanced class material). We then completed the box for the card but ran out of time and over time and so everyone took away the strawberry card materials to complete at home.

If you couldn't attend my class in person but would like to purchase the class tutorial it's now available using the Buy Now button on the right.

Please note all instructions are in metric and designed for UK standard size card.

March thinking outside the box challenge

The March Anything Goes challenge at In Love With Stamping is to think outside the box and turn our stamps into something else eg. stamp a flower using hearts, a bug using petals.

I've used my fruit stamps to create a flower spray:

Recipe

Stamp sets: Tart & Tangy, Sincere Salutations

Cardstock: Cameo Coral, Barely Banana, Old Olive, Whisper White

DSP: Kaleidoscope

Ink: SU Markers (Old Olive, Cameo Coral)

Punches: Scallop Oval, Large Oval, 1/4" Circle

Large Grosgrain Ribbon: Old Olive

Striped Grosgrain Ribbon: Old Olive

Using my markers direct to stamp, I inked just the cherry stem and turned it upside down. I then inked just the inside of the lemon slice stamp and stamped it for the flower heads, using my stamp-a-ma-jig to place them. The ribbon edging uses just a few scraps of ribbon - a great way of using them up.

What can you turn your stamps into?
