August Technique Class

Hi everyone. Today I wanted to share with you the cards we did at my August Technique Class. First we did this card using the Postage Stamp punch. Notice how there are two different sizes of postage punches here? Well that was our technique for this card. To create the smaller postage stamp, we simply reinserted the punched piece of card stock and snipped off a piece from 2 of the sides. Also, notice the flag style tail on the piece of Baja Breeze Designer Paper? That was made with the postage stamp punch as well? We just used it to snip our the triangle shape!

Next we did this card. Notice the fancy corners on this one? We did this by using the Decorative Label punch and inserting the corner of the card stock through the underside of the punch and only punching out the decorative shape.

Next we did this Telescoping card. I CASEd this from another demonstrator. This card was a big hit this month! To make this one we simply cut / punched out various sized of circles, stamped them, then attached them together with brads!

And last but not least, we did this card. This card is a CASE from my Up-Upline Julie (she always has the best ideas!). Notice the yellow pearls on the buttons? Well that was the technique for this card. We simply colored the white pearls with a yellow Sharpie! This is a super simple technique! All you need is any permanent marker and you can make your pearls any color you want! (Unfortunately Stampin' Write Markers don't work for this technique since they are water based and the color will just wipe off the pearls.)
