Jo Brooks February 2024 Shoebox Event
The shoebox event fell on Valentine’s Day this month and we had a wonderful time making valentines and then eating at the Carriage Shops Tea House- and our husbands were invited! The men went and had coffee while we made our cards and then they joined us for lunch.
Jo’s first card uses Stampin’ Up!’s Dry Brushed Metallic Paper and Brushed Shapes Dies:
The middle of the big heart is the inside cut out of the heart and is popped up. The corner rounding on the inside adds a nice touch! To catch the glimmer of the paper I somehow lost the bright white cardstock.
I left the inside blank and then when I needed an anniversary card I pulled out the Memorable Moments stamp set and the gold embossing powder and a turquoise embossing powder. I tilted the card to see if I could get the gold and turquoise glossy look but couldn’t. It was a perfect match for the DSP colors! Treasures Of The Heart was used for the little greeting at the bottom.
Jo’s second card is so fun:
I will love sending this to my mom as she spent many years on a ranch!
Thank you, Jo, for a fun shoebox event with beautiful cards!

Christine Dillon January 2024 Shoebox Event
What a great way to start the 2024 year of stamping with Christine Dillon as our hostess for the shoebox event. We take turns each month designing two cards and making card kits for each person to construct at the event.

Christine used the Delicate Edge Dies to create the black borders on either side of the foiled Designer Series Paper- the foil isn’t showing in the picture but it is beautiful. The Deco Labels Framelits made a perfect greeting with a second cut to be a frame of the greeting. The little gold metallic butterfly was an ideal embellishment.
Her second card was a valentine card:
The Sunshine Wishes Die was used for the heart and love word. What a great combination of red and black to match the red and black in the Designer Series Paper. I love the layers of white on red and then layered on the Designer Series Paper. I left the inside blank so I could add a greeting later.
You need to follow her example of using a button since you have so many buttons in your stash.
I do have a lot of buttons, Sal, and need to remember to use them. Thank you, Christine, for a great shoebox event.
