Here are the cards we're making in class this month. We're using Spotlight on Nature, Adventurous Sky and Lovely and Sweet. The new catalogs are here and you will be able to order from them beginning September 4th. Next month we will be making Christmas projects. I have a few items from the holiday catalog that came in my pre-order. I'll bring them to class for everyone to look at.

The Nature's Sweetness Suite in the Spring Catalog is really quite something. On this card, I stamped right on the DSP for some collage type background. I took a piece of the DSP, tore it on one side, flipped it around and glued to the back for a nice contrast.

This die cuts out holes with a perferation down the middle. I used it on the card base and then threaded the faux leather/gold trim in the holes. What a cool thing!
These two sets are not the typical florals and the different looks you can achieve with them are great! On the first one, I used my Paper Snips Scissors to cut a small slit in the end then pulled so that it unraveled. I then used the ribbon and raveling piece to make a bow for a rustic look. One of the cool things about these two bundles is that the dies cut out images from the DSP. I just love that!
