Our next meeting is at Seabreeze, February 24 at 6:30 PM.

Joan will demonstrate name-tags.

You will need card stock for the tags, embellishments
and your usual supplies.

Call Geri at 751-5806 for any questions.

 

At our next meeting at Seabreeze, February 10 at 6:30 PM, Sandy will show us
how to create two easel cards.

Both of them are designed to be birthday cards for men. You will need:

CARD #1

-Double Fold Easel--Lighthouse Scene:
-Paper Trimmer (I don't think a rotary cutter will work as you need a cutter with ruler measurements);
-Scoring blade/tool/board;
-colored pencils or copic/blendabilities markers;
-brown ink pad for greetings & 2nd card;
-light blue ink pad and dauber/sponge to fill in sky for both cards;
-small corner punch--scallop is nice;
-glitter pen;
-yellow stickle (if you have it).

CARD #2

-Triple fold easel--Palm Tree Island Scene:
-1 scrap of white cardstock (at least 6 x 6);
-green ink pad to stamp palm tree island;
-aqua blue ink pad for ocean & dauber or sponge (different blue than blue for sky);
-2-- 4 3/8  x 5 3/4 envelopes if  you like to stamp on your envelopes;
-Basic supplies & tools including scissors, adhesives, pop dots, glue dots,       bone folder, ruler, pencil etc.

I will provide the 8 1/2 by 5 1/2 card stock for both cards and nautical embellishments, stamp & cut the lighthouse scene to save time, and  have colored pencils, stamps, ink pads, stickle etc. for the women to use if they don't have an item. I will have copies of the templates and directions for everyone to take with them.

From Judy Huetz:

Here is the info for the cards for January 27th at Seabreeze at 6:30 PM.

We will be making two cards with a "heart" theme - they can be used for Valentine's Day, birthday or anniversary.  The first card will be an iris fold heart and the second card will be a paper embroidery heart.

In addition to your regular supplies, please bring the following:

For iris fold card - white cardstock for the card, 3 different coordinating "thin" papers to fold, cut into 3/4 inch strips (either pinks or reds), a color cardstock for the second layer to coordinate with the "thin" papers (I used a "sparkle" paper), and scotch tape.

For paper embroidery heart just bring white cardstock for the card.
I will supply embroidery floss, needles and will have pierced pattern to save time.

See you the 27th.



Any questions please call Geri at 751-5806.

From Judy Huetz:

Tuesday January 13th, 6:30 PM at Seabreeze - We will be making 2 cards with a "heart" theme. These can be used for Valentine's Day, birthday, or anniversary.  The first card will be a "shaker" card and the second is a "patchwork" card.

Along with your regular supplies please bring the following:

For shaker card - white cardstock for the card, printed paper (hearts, floral or stripes in pinks, reds or purples) with a solid color cardstock to coordinate, colored pencils or markers to color stamped image, momento black ink, and red, pink or purple stickles.

For patchwork card - 5 different coordinating papers, combination of patterns and solids. You will be using one of the solid colors for the card and one of the printed for another layer. Also bring flower embellishment to coordinate and scotch tape.

I will have extra papers with me to use with each of the cards for anyone who needs any. I will supply the "shaker" pouches and confetti along with stickers to trim around the pouches.

Looking forward to seeing everyone.
