Spring Time Saturday Class

On Saturday 8th March I held a Saturday morning class at Frampton Village Hall with projects based around the Bright Blossoms stamp set.  We made 6 cards, 2 each of 3 designs and made a box suitable for a candle holder and decorated a tea-light candle to go with it.
As Easter and Mothers Day were not far off, I made all the cards suitable for both occasions and the greeting could be changed to suit using either the Delightful Dozen or Express Yourself stamp sets.  All the cards used Daffodil Delight 1/22 Seam binding which everyone had a reel of in their goodie bag as well as a 1/2 pack of Fresh Prints DSP.
 
As you can see form this card, just by removing the punch art rabbit, this is an easy card suitable for all occasions.  The main colours used in these cards were taken from the subtles family, So Saffron, Pink Pirouette and Pear Pizzazz. The 'grass' was created by using the new Fringe Scissors.
This card makes quite a bold impression with the contrasting Basic Black, Real Red , Old Olive and Daffodil Delight colour scheme.

The above two cards were an experiment to show what different eggect you can crate by changing the colour scheme and DSP but maintaining the same design.  I made the top card as a 'make and take' one for people who wanted to drop into the class without booking to see what Stampin' Up! was all about.  The bottom card uses Real Red, Old Olive and Tempting Turquoise.
And finally a lovely gift box to house a decorated tea-light with a holder for that perfect spring-time gift! The colours used here are Real Red, Bermuda Bay Whisper White; and the main body of the box used Crumb Cake.
