April Class is now in Session!

 Hi all,

Here are the cards that we will be making in April - 2 are sympathy cards (unfortunately, I have needed lots of these lately) and 2 birthday cards.  I used a lot of soon to be retiring product, I used some product that is exclusive to the online store and some product that will be carried forward to the new 2023-2024 catalog.  There is one fun fold and 1 faker shaker card.  So you've got quite a mix this month!

April 2023 Blog Waddle - Fond Farewell to January-April 2023 Catalog

 Welcome to our monthly blog hop (waddle).  This month we are bidding a fond farewell to the January - April 2023 Mini catalog by featuring our favorite stamp sets and papers.  

Two of my favorite stamp sets luckily carried over to the 2023-2024 annual catalog:  Two Tone Flora and Petal Park.  Here is my Two Tone Flora card;  the layout was inspired from Julie Davison.


I thought this card was really stunning.  The Card Stock that I used was Evening Evergreen and Soft Succulent.  (so sad that these two colors are retiring!)  For the Designer Series paper, I used Fancy Flora 6x6 paper.  This paper is so beautiful also.  The sentiment is from Go to Greetings - a great stamp set with several sentiments in 3 different sizes. This is carrying forward to the 2023-2024 annual catalog - Yeah!

The second card I wanted to show you, and another favorite for me, was Petal Park and using the coordinating punch.  Right now, until the end of April, this is a bundle (save 10%).  It did carry forward to the new annual catalog, but not as a bundle.  Here is the card:


Again, I used the coordinating paper with the suite, called Regency Park 6x6 Designer Series paper.  I also used the retiring dies from Painted Labels and the Stitched Greenery.  The scallop circle is from All That dies (carried forward) and the center circle was punch out using the 1-3/4 circle punch (on-line store only)

I hope you enjoyed today's card samples.  There is more to come...just follow the links below.

Have a blessed day!

Sheryl
