Today's Class

A big thank you to all the ladies who participated in today's class!

Let me tell you that I am completely stuffed from all the nibblies!
Well, each of us made this card....
...using the Petal Pizzaz stamp set (one of my current favourite sets) and the Best yet hostess set, together with the colour combination of Whisper White, Night of Navy, Brocade Blue and Old Olive, and the Scallop Circle punch, Large Oval punch and the new Scallop Oval punch.

The second project was one of these cute little handbags...


The red bag is the example I had prepared using the now obsolete (but still gorgeous) Ginger Blossom scrapbooking paper, and the grey & blue bag is an example of the gift bags the participants made using the equally lovely Urban Garden papers, together with Basic Grey cardstock & ink. The Scallop Circle punch, 1 3/8" Circle punch and the 1 1/4" punch were used for the tag, as was a little chain from a bargain shop.
I think the ladies were pretty pleased with their projects and it's great to see them becoming more confident with their efforts. Can't wait for the next class. At their request, we'll be making wedding and engagement cards. Oh, the pressure of coming up with ideas!
Bye for now & enjoy the sunshine.
