It's that time again......the brand new 2010/2011 Stampin' Up! Idea Book & Catalog is coming! I was able to place my preorder today for boxes of the new catalog and I should be receiving them before the end of June. Do you want one of the brand new catalogs?

May Technique Class

Today I wanted to share with you the cards that we did at my May Technique Class. First we made this Flower Pot Pocket Card.



Next we did this card using the new Sweet Scoop stamp set and the Kissing technique.


This next card uses two technquies. First we created the vintage looking background paper using the new Smooch Spritz and Prest Pattersn designer paper from the Summer Mini catalog. Then we made the flower using the Tissue Flower technique.


And to wrap it up, in celebration of National Scrapbooking Month we made this 8 1/2" x 11" scrapbook page. Perfect for those upcoming summer vacations!
