3 of the 4 cards are fun folds as well.  The little leprechaun (gnome) is on a wobble, so he dances a jig!

In my classes, you make a total of 7 cards:  2 each of 3 designs and 1 bonus card.  All have envelopes and you receive a free handout with the recipe and supplies for each card.  All for $25.  

Times and Places:

Sunday, February 26th - 1:30 pm - 5pm - my home - limit of 4

Please register by Tuesday, February 21st, so I have time to make up the kits.  Contact me if you have any questions.  

Thanks, and I hope to see you at class!

Blessings,  Sheryl

Valentines for the Grans

 Hi all!

Sorry about being so late about posting the valentines I made for my grand children.  I made 3 designs, 2 each since I have 6 grandchildren.  Here they are:

The first one was inspired by Linda Heller where she designed a waterfall card with circles.  I used the Love Cats Stamp set.  My oldest grandson and the 10 year old grandson have a love of cats, so they got this card.

My 10 year old granddaughter and my 8 year old grand son got this cute little valentine gnome.  This card was inspired by Angie Juda.  My only edit was that I put the gnome up on a wobble, so he does a little dance!

The last card is called a wiper card and I got this inspiration from Julie Davison.  When you pull open the card, the little owl pops up wishing you a happy valentines day!  My 6 year old granddaughter loved this, so I sent it to her and to my 5 year old grandson.  

I had a lot of fun making these cards.  

For my friends, I mad this card which was inspired by Lynn Dunn - 

Simple but really beautiful.  

That's it for today.  

Blessings,  Sheryl

Valentines for my Grandchildren - Part I

 Hi all!

One of the greatest delights that I have as a grandmother is designing and sending cards and treats to my grandchildren on holidays.  Valentines Day is a particularly fun holiday.  

This is what I created for Alice, my 6 year old granddaughter who is in kindergarden.  I made her some basic cards and she got to decorate them with self-adhesive sparkle hearts that I got from Michael's.  

I made some treats for my other 10 year old granddaughter, Maelyn, who is in 5th grade.  Cute little lady bugs with a heart shaped Dove chocolate.

It's so much fun, not only designing these projects, but then helping them put it together.  Great family bonding time.  

Tomorrow, I will show you the Valentines cards that I am sending to my kiddos.

Until then, have a blessed day!

February Stray Duckling Blog Waddle - The Spring Mini Catalog!

Hi All!

Welcome to the monthly Stampin' Stray Duckling Blog Waddle!  This months theme is featuring products in the January - April Mini Catalog.  Come on in and see what I have created for you!

It's going to be Valentines day soon so I thought what better, than to feature some valentines that I have been working on.  This card is made with the Love Cats stamp set and is a fun waterfall card.  I CASE'd this card from Linda Heller, Stampin'Up Demonstrator.  It's pretty easy to make and will delight anyone who receives it.  

I used the Stamparatus  to get good solid images of the black cat.  The Designer Series paper is one of my favorites:  Country Gingham 6 x 6.  Here is a link to Linda's video where she explains how to put this together:  Click here.

Another fun card that I made using Share A Milk Shake stamp set.  I didn't order this right away, but then I really liked the cute little ice cream cone that you could die cut and fold to make it look 3-D.  I love the fonts used in the sentiments as well.  Here is the card:  

This too is a fun fold card, using Dandy Designs 12x12 Designer Series Paper (free with a $100 purchase during Sale-A-Bration).  The sentiment is Inspired Thoughts (155536) in the annual catalog.  I CASE'd this from Lynn Dunn, Stampin'Up Demonstrator.  It's a great way to use up all that DSP that you have been collecting for years (I sure hope other people do this besides me!)

The next duckling that you will visit is: Kim Baker
