AECP class - Clean & Simple Boutique Cards

 Altenew Educator Certification Program

Clean & Simple Boutique Class


I have enjoyed this class taught by Jennifer Rasa.  I am sharing with you the card I made from Lesson 2, creating stamped backgrounds, using the Hello Winter stamp set from Technique Tuesday. 
 The background was randomly stamped using London Fog Memento Ink.  



 I stamped the sentiment using Catherine Pooler Rockin' Red Ink onto a tag die cut using a Close To My Heart die.  I inked the edges  to help it stand out a little.

 Inside my card I stamped the snow border from the stamp set and added the Sweater Weather stamp, also from Technique Tuesday.


I enjoyed the class and I must admit that I have enjoyed creating my own backgrounds using random stamping rather than patterned paper!  If you haven't tried it, go ahead and give it a try.  You might find you enjoy it too!  
Thanks for stopping by and take time to enjoy life's Moments.

Let It Snow!

Well I really don't want the snow just yet but I am making a stack of these for a card making workshop this week.  It is way too early for snow and cold weather.  I am sure a lot of you agree.  Mother Nature will do what she wants so dig out those winter coats...LOL.

I have been missing in action lately, waiting for my new craft room to be finished.  It has been a slow process as it is over a three bay "carriage house"!


  

  I will have the second floor!!!!

I am getting closer to being able to pick out what I want in it.  Pinterest is helping thank heavens 😀!  I hope that by December I will be able to set it up!

In the meantime I have been able to make a few cards.

  

  






I hope that soon I can post on a more regular basis.  Until later, try to stay warm!
