We made some gorgeous cards at Stamp Club this month (on Monday night).
I like to let my hostesses choose what projects we make on their night of Hosting.
This month, with Father's Day just around the corner & Christmas quickly sneaking up on us, our hostess decided to choose a Father's Day Card & a Christmas Card.
So this is what we made:
For the Christmas Card, I chose to copy the Winter Post Card from page 33. My hostess has all the goodies for embossing so we heat embossed the postmark stamp for a wee refresher on how to use that technique.
I LOVE that my stamp clubs allow the hostess to choose her projects because it means that I'm teaching people to use what they've got - I get a huge sense of satisfaction from that - just another reason why I LOVE being a demonstrator :o)
My tea bag is a little larger than the one in the catalogue, but "work with what you've got" is one of my many mantras ;o)
I really do love this stamp set - makes me kind of wish our Christmas was in winter - but not really because I don't like the cold LOL
Well , it was windy & chilly enough today to make the tea not seem completely preposterous.
A hot chocolate sachet would work just as well.
