I had planned on posting this card yesterday, but I've been frantically working on our taxes since Saturday and couldn't get it posted. Note to self...keep up on the accounting throughout the year so tax time isn't so bad! LoL I'm happy to report they're done & filed, and I can get back to crafting stuff again!
Today's card is the second one for my current Free Card Class @ Home. This class features the Growth Takes Time from Stampin' Up!'s Online Exclusives.
I start my weekly Card Class @ Home every Thursday, and they end on the following Wednesday. The Free class video is my weekly Thursday Live on my Facebook Page and YouTube Channel @ 7:30 pm (ET). You can see the video for this class below. I have added chapters to the video, so you can skip to the part you want to watch, too.
How would you like to get the card kits (includes the cardstock (cut, embossed, & die-cut), Designer Series Paper (DSP), & ribbon to make two each of the three cards in the class FREE?

10 of My Handmade Cards
*The pearls were on the Last Chance List, and they have sold out already. I have a limited supply to giveaway…first come, first served. If I run out, I'll give you another full embellishment pack I have leftover from past Card Class @ Homes.
I wanted to give the beautiful tree a different look, so I decided to give it yellow leaves. I REALLY like how it turned out. Yellow leaves usually makes you think of Fall, but I think this shade of yellow works great for Spring, too.
I used the retiring So Saffron color, and I'm really going to miss this color. I had been neglecting this color lately, and I totally forgot how much I love it until I made this card. As I'm writing this, the So Saffron ink pad, cardstock, and Stampin' Blends are still available, so you still have a chance to get this beautiful yellow!
There are three more retiring items I used in this class. Besides the So Saffron, I used the White Frayed Ribbon. I used this ribbon on this card and my FIRST CARD. This ribbon is so soft and easy to work with. Thankfully, it's still available AND @ 50% off!
I also used the retiring Happy Forest Friends Designer Series Paper on all three cards. As of today, this DSP is also still available. You can see all of the designs in this cute paper by CLICKING HERE.
For each of my Card Class @ Homes, I pick out one embellishment for all three cards. This time, I chose the retired Pearl Basic Jewels. Yes, I said retired. Sadly, they're sold out! I'm glad I got them before they were gone. There are three different sizes of the pearls in the pack, and I used the large ones on today's card. The Pearl Basic Jewels are NOT included in the card kits, but you can get them added free...
If You Place a $55 Order (before shipping & tax), Using Host Code R6DWFG4N, You'll Get a Full Pack of the Pearl Basic Jewels Added to Your Card Kits for FREE!
Bump It Up to a $75 Order on April 19th, and Get Free Shipping!
Note: I Have a Limited Supply of These Pearls. First Come, First Served
If I Run Out, I'll Substitute With Another Embellishment Pack I Have On Hand...
I'll Make Sure They Look Good With These Cards
I wanted to stamp the tree on the inside of the card, but I also wanted to leave plenty of room to write a message inside, too. Solution: only stamp about half of the tree! Works out perfect!
I have a list of supplies you'll need to make the cards in the class (ink pads, adhesive, etc), and you can see it by CLICKING HERE. You can substitute with products you have on hand, too. You can see what comes in the class's card kits in the video above.
Come Back Tomorrow for the Last Card of the Class!
