Sharing Some Cards from My Recent Card Marathon

I thought I'd share some cards from my recent Card Marathon workshop.  For this class, we make 20 cards in one night--four each of five different designs.  I design the cards and pre-cut the pieces.  Attendees stamp their pieces and assemble.  I try to offer a variety of sentiments so that they can change up their cards to suit their needs.  If you live in the Springfield, MO, area, be sure you come join us the next time I do one of these classes!  

The papers featured on all of these cards are part of our March BOGO special, so it's a great time to stock up on these fun prints!

This card uses the ice cream cone from the Workshops Your Way One Scoop at a Time Cardmaking Kit.  The polka dot paper is from the Something Fierce paper pack.

I think this was the favorite card I offered.  It features the Butterfly Friendship stamp set (and die cuts) and the Feels Like Home paper pack.  What you can't see well in this photo is the Sugarplum Shimmer Brush that I used on the butterflies to give them just a touch of sparkle.  

This is the A Birthday In Watercolor stamp set, and the paper is from the Mix-Ins paper pack.  I used Glacier, Lagoon and Sapphire inks.

This paper from the So Much Happy paper pack just makes me happy!!  I used the Berry Best stamp set and added some Liquid Glass to the strawberries to make them shiny and more dimensional.  NOTE:  Liquid Glass makes red ink turn ORANGE.  Use a more maroon red (like Ruby) and the Liquid Glass will turn it into a more strawberry-like red.  I suggest testing this on scratch paper first. . .let the Liquid Glass dry fully so you'll know what color you'll get.

These cards feature the I Heart Us paper (can't get enough of this rainbow paper) and the words from our Love Blossoms stamp set (only available for a limited time).  I let my gals choose whether they wanted to add the flower, the dog or the cat.  Love these animal sets!!
