Hello Stamping Friends,<\/p>\n

March’s hostess code is:\u00a0 A3VBV4QZ<\/p>\n

Check out these beautiful swap cards made by the club members and come back tomorrow to see the Mystery Card #10 that is a fun part of being in club.\u00a0 Each month I make cards and deliver kits to the club members; then we gather on the second Tuesday of the month at 9:30 via Facebook Live to construct the kits.\u00a0 On the last Tuesday of the month we meet via Zoom to share our swap cards, chat a bit, and do a Mystery card challenge.\u00a0 I send the instructions for the card and then each person gathers the supplies and we put the cards together on the Zoom meeting.\u00a0 Each person chooses their own color of cardstock and designer series paper and it is so fun to see all the different cards made with the same set of measurements.<\/p>\n

\"\"Before you show and tell February, shouldn’t you tell them about March?<\/a><\/p>\n

I almost forgot!\u00a0 We are ready to celebrate and get together again.\u00a0 Since March is a non-club month I am having my first in-house stamping event to stamp two cards with the Hey Birthday Chick bundle and two cards with the Butterfly Brilliance Bundle – (available to purchase March 2).\u00a0 Space is limited to four people but there are four sessions. Stampers will each be seated on one side of a large table so we are still distanced from each other.\u00a0 Cost is $15.\u00a0 Text me at 303-815-0838 if you are interested.\u00a0 I can take Paypal, Venmo, Cash or Check.<\/p>\n

    \"\"How many of the members swapped?\u00a0<\/a><\/p>\n

    We had six members swap and myself.\u00a0 Let’s start with Lori’s ‘Everything Is Rosy’ Gatefold Card.\u00a0 There was a ‘Rosy Suite’ that you could purchase last year and after it retired, the whole suite was in the clearance rack.\u00a0 I hope some of you were able to get this amazing set of products.\u00a0 The outside sentiment, flowers and Everything Is Rosy DSP are all from the suite. The inside sentiment is from the current ‘So Sentimental’ stamp set.\u00a0 Night of Navy is the base cardstock.<\/p>\n

    \"\"<\/a>\u00a0 \"\"<\/a><\/p>\n

    Next we have Jo’s card using the Flight of Fancy and Heartfelt stamp sets with gray for the base and a sponged white Layering Oval as well as Stitched Shapes and Be Mine Stitched Framelits.\u00a0 Inside has “so lucky to have a friend like you” in pink.<\/p>\n

    \"\"<\/a><\/p>\n

    Suzi used the current JJ Mini Flowering Cactus Product Medley for her swap card on a layer of white card stock embossed with the Dainty Diamonds embossing folder.\u00a0 This medley has dies, twine, DSP-designer series paper, a lovely cactus stamp set and die-cut felt sheets.\u00a0 See page 9 of the JJ mini.\u00a0 There is also a refill kit!<\/p>\n

    \"\"<\/a><\/p>\n

    Joy used the oh so beautiful heart from the Stitched Be Mine Dies which carried over to the Annual Catalog!\u00a0 If you were in club a couple years ago you will remember this beautiful DSP.\u00a0 Hopefully you have some in your stash.<\/p>\n

    \"\"\u00a0\u00a0<\/a><\/p>\n

    Lucille’s card uses paper that is quite similar to our Forever Greenery DSP.\u00a0 The sentiment is from Stampin’ Up’s Quite Curvy Stamp set and the hearts are from her Framelits Heart Collection.<\/p>\n

    \"\".\u00a0 \u00a0<\/a><\/p>\n

    Sharon has outdone herself once again with the Wreath Builder Dies and the Arrange A Wreath stamp set.\u00a0 I didn’t notice that little heart with the love cut out until I saw her card.\u00a0 I had to go see those dies (pg. 173).<\/p>\n

    \"\". \u00a0<\/a><\/p>\n

    My card uses the ‘Floral Heart Dies’ In the JJ MIni page 12 and is a case of Kylie Bertucci with a bit different pink. The sentiment is from the ‘Always In My Hear’t coordinating stamp set.\u00a0 I die cut the floral heart in basic black and then cut another in Flirty Flamingo, popped the pink heart up with dimensionals over top of the black heart and then ‘paper pieced’ the little flowers with the Flirty Flamingo sections.\u00a0 The key is to use the double back adhesive on the card stock and a dryer sheet to keep the pieces together.\u00a0 Stay tuned for a future video on paper piecing.<\/p>\n
