Good Sunday morning stamping friends. I hope you are all having a wonderful weekend. My niece, daughter and I had a lot of fun last night at the fund raiser. I always enjoy going out and spending time with my niece and daughter.
I have another sneak peek for you today or a card we made at OnStage. I actually finished mine at home since they didn’t give us enough time to finish them there. I can’t wait to get this new DSP, I think it’s my favorite. Here’s my card for today.
I used the New Stampin’ Up! Fern & Flora Bundle along with the Moonlit Flora Designer Series Paper for my card today. Both products will be available May 5th. At OnStage, they had all the pieces die cut for us. All we had to do was stamp on the die cut pieces.

Stamp the sentiment from the Fern & Flora stamp set in Secret Sea Ink on one of the labels on the right side.

Using the Blender Pens, add Golden Glow Ink to the flowers and Peaceful Pine Ink to the leaves. At one of the stations during our Product Experience at OnStage, we used the Brayer with Golden Glow Ink on a panel of Basic White. Stamp the butterfly image from the Fern & Flora stamp set on the panel and cut it out using the Fern & Flora Dies.
Adhere the die cut fern and leafy dies to the card front. Adhere the floral and butterfly die cuts to the card front with Stampin’ Dimensionals. Tie a multiloop bow with Linen Thread and adhere it to the card front. Add a few Dewdrops Embellishments to the card front.

If you’ve attended a previous class, you were given a discount code, there is a spot to put that code on the form and the discount only applies to the products that you check off that you wish to purchase, not the class. Since the Bundles are already discounted, the discount does not apply to them either.
The class will be held Sunday April 26th from 1 to 4 pm Eastern Time via Zoom. This allows anyone in the United States to participate live! Can’t join us live… no worries, we will record the session so it can be replayed at any time.
I will email written directions that will include directions, cardstock cuts as well as photos to help you create each card.
The bundles are not included in the price of the class. You can purchase the bundle through me at an additional 10% discount of the Online Exclusive price (see below).
Class Cost $40 + $10 (Shipping)
Additional purchased items will be included in the above shipping price. I will invoice you through PayPal and invoices must be paid by April 5th to insure I can get the products delivered, packaged up and out to you with enough time.
Deadline: Sunday April 5th
