October Group Meeting FUN ! ! ! !


Every month the stamps group I belong to… called Whipperstampers meets… and this month we made a fun card… and also flowers…some out of tissue paper and some with a punch and button…

I had fun teaching… and didn’t really get to make or do anything else…but as always being with the group and sharing is the most fun anyway…

So here I am again sharing and being with you…
Here is the card style that we made… I think if you scroll down you will see a FEW more using this same style… it has been an all time favorite since Marie and I made it last Friday…

The Pumpkins and Colander are from PRETTIES BY BONNIE…. and I used my markers to color them… The back panel is of course a Spellbinder that I stamped with an Inkadinkadoo round stamp… and then used my Ranger inks to color it…

I used a few Martha Punches on the side and lower panel….To make this card, you start out with a 6x 12 piece of paper and when finished you have a card that is almost 7 inches tall and 6 inches wide.. a big card... but so wonderful to stand somewhere to show off how much you love the person you sent it too... so make one and send it to someone SPECIAL... 

A side note… I used this card style (scroll down) to create a card for the Just Rite challenge… I used the Spellbinder apples and also the GREAT Apple Stamp that Just Rite has… and I placed second in the challenge with this card…

This is the so much fun… I can hardly wait to start to get some of the prizes I have won with Just Rite… Stamps, Spellbinders, and now Flower Soft… wow…  so many great gifts…

Okay… FLOWERS…  I taught two different types of flowers… one was the tissue paper flower… you have seen plenty of my cards with them on them… and then I found some where on the web this adorable flower made with a 14 scalloped punch and then a button in the center…

Here are a few of the cards I made as examples, using this flower… 

 On these cards I have used all kinds of things... Martha Stewart punches, Spellbinders, other punches and papers by assorted companies...



I used all kinds of fun embossing folders by Cuttlebug... and then cut out my own things like leaves and stems...



Adding some ribbon here and there... and pearls for accents is all part of the fun...

I can add and add to cards... I have to stop myself at times...  




Hope you enjoy these…  I loved making them... and adding all the fun details... 

Hope you have a fun day....

  2. We sure had fun. Thanks for teaching the card since I was so tired. I think everyone really liked it. The flowers were great, too. I really like the one with the tissue paper. Need to make a few more of these real soon. Time to search for the tissue paper. It must be in a box somewhere downstairs (:
