This week’s PDF file is a list of coordinating cardstock colors for each Designer Series Paper set in both of the current catalogs. I have made two separate files: One contains a list of the coordinating cardstock for the Annual Catalog (2020/2021) and the other file will list the Aug-Dec 2020 Mini Catalog DSP. I hope you find them a useful addition to your crafting bullet journal.

Alicia is hosting this class which means all orders using her hostess code will earn her free Stampin’ rewards. Let me know if you would like to host a future class. Right now all classes are online and your main job as hostess will be to invite your friends. We will be making 4 fancy fold cards in this class which are pictured below and I even added a video because a picture could not do them justice. Please RSVP by August 23 if you can but if I have the materials on hand I may be able to take reservations up until August 30, 2020. The class is $25 plus $3 shipping and handling to mail the materials if you are not local to me. Remember stamped images are not included in the card kits, but everything else you see will be in your kit including the Very Vanilla oval. You can choose to use stamps you already own or purchase the Gather Together stamp set before class. Don’t forget to use Alicia’s hostess code: C4ZGH4JH

I have posted the video above to show you what the cards look like, but just in case it doesn’t show up, please follow this link to see a video tour of the cards that we will make in the Twist and Pop class. Click Here

 

Sail at Sunset Card

This weeks file features the second card made during my July Fancy Fold class. I copied the card from a fellow demonstrator that was in a swap with me last year. I made a version using the Ornate Garden DSP, but the card I designed for class used the Smooth Sailing Dies and World of Good DSP.
