Little Leaves

The picture doesn't do justice to the colors.  The lighting is a little off.  But here is the supply list:
Cardstock - Rose Red, Sage Shadow
Ink - Rose Red, Chocolate Chip
Stamp sets:  With All my heart and Simple Friendship
Die Cut - Little Leaves

Free-hand cut around the butterfly and pop up with dimensionals.  Cut two Little Leaves and over-lap slightly.  A very quick and easy card to do.

Sweet Pea Paper

I used so saffron for the base and this great retro looking circle paper from the Sweet Pea Designer Series paper pack.  I also used the stitched felt flowers and the scallop edge trim punch.  Very quick and easy card to do.

Tote-ally Tess

LOVE LOVE LOVE this new set.  I really hope Stampin' Up decides to keep her in the new July 2010 catalog and bring out new accessories.

Here are a couple of projects that I did with her.
 
The first is the Big Shot fancy Favor box and I paper pieced using the sweet pea designer series paper and made her blonde.  I added some tissue paper and a stamp and it made a really cute hostess gift for a workshop.  The second is the square scallop die that I offset one scallop down to create a straight folded edge for a card.  I just colored this one with marker.  The paper piecing on the first was a lot more fun though.

Valentines Treat Class

This was a Valentines Treat class with 10 9-year old girls and we had such a fun time.  The girls were giggling and really enjoyed it.  I used the small cello bags and pre-cut the toppers.  The girls could then decorate them anyway they wanted.  We used a variety of stamps, a small heart punch and just plain markers. They are already talking about doing it again next year!
