Chalk Board or Black Magic

Tips and  Technique club made this.  

First you will ink the image in White Craft Ink (This is a pigment ink) it is slow to dry.  You will stamp this on black or another Dark colored Card stock.  While it is still damp you will apply the pastels by daubing them on the damp image It’s ok for it to look a little messy.  Once you have it the way you want it, take the swifter cloth and wipe off any excess chalk.  

Triple Layer punch

 Have you ordered your Triple Layer Punch!  You will love it.  There are two different styles.  This one is the Blossom Bouquet Triple layer punch.  They call it that because you get THREE layers in one punch!  You can see these in the Summer Mini catalog on page 6.  This flower is layered on two additional punches and attached to the #2 Box that I cut out with my big shot.  It's easy to add a tag when you use the tiny tag punch and the Tiny Tags set.  

This one is empty but I know some yummy Chocolate that would fill this right up!

Matchbook Scrapbook

 The last two workshops that I have had there have scrapbookers attending.  I was ask to do something that they would like.  My Stampin Success Magazine ( a monthly magazine that all Demo receive) came in the mail and there was a "Matchbook" Mini scrapbook in there that was so cute!  I wanted to use the "Travel Log" set   The match book measures 4x5 when folded.  I cut the word "FUN" out with the Alphabet Simple Letters Die using my Big Shot.

 Inside there are three pages that are not attached.  They just nest in side the fold of the matchbook pocket.  Every piece of the set was used along with several punches.  The girls were pleased with the project and very proud of what they made.  Thanks SU for suppling me with ideas.

Hostess Gift

 Had a workshop last night at "Amy's"  So this is the gift I made and gave to her.  It's a note pad.  Cut with Big Shot, Used Chip board and covered with Rich Razzleberry card stock.  Also cut the Letter "A" with the Serif Essentials Alphabet # 113464 on page 207 of your catalog   The Scallop is the Scallop Circle #113468

 Close up of the "A"  I have it wrapped in our large Cello Bag and tied with a ribbon.  The inside is paper you use in your printer.  Just Cut it with the same scallop and you have a not pad.  I punched a hole with my crop-a-dile.. Which is the best tool ever! It is attached with a Notebook ring.  I think it turned out really cute.  Amy liked it!  Book a workshop with me and you will get a hand made gift from me for hosting.

 This was given to me as a gift from my friend Patsy Waggoner!  I was so excited!  Thanks again Patsy!  

Z Fold

The fold on the card is the “Z” fold.  Cut 8-½ x11 piece of cardstock long side at 4 ¼.  Score long ways at 2 ¾ and 5 ½.   This is one of the cards we did at the Strength and hope class.  Again a shout out to Deb Valder for helping me with the designs.  I love how they turned out!  Thanks Deb
