FIRST OFF...HAPPY LABOR DAY!
I Hope You're All Enjoying Your Extra Day Off!
Now back to crafting! 😉 Here's the second card for my current Free Card Class @ Home. This class features the Enchanted Butterfly Stamp Set from the Stampin' Up! 2023-2024 Annual Catalog. It's hard to believe, but I didn't use any dies or embossing folders on any of these cards! That's definitely a first for me!
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?

Wednesday, September 6, 2023...
That's the Day the September-December 2023 Mini Catalog Begins!
As I stated in the FIRST CARD'S POST, the Enchanted Butterfly set is a Reversibles™ stamp set. These stamps are special because you can stamp on BOTH sides of the stamp. One side can color in the opposite, lined image side, or you can stamp either just a lined image or just a bold, silhouette of the same image on the other side of the stamp. This time, I only stamped the butterfly with the lined image side.
Since there are no greetings in the featured stamp set, I chose one of my favorite greeting sets in the annual catalog for the class's three cards...Go To Greetings. What I love about this stamp set is that there are four greetings that come in three different sizes and fonts. There's a small "hello" stamp as a bonus stamp, too. I used the middle-sized "Happy Birthday" for today's card. You can see the whole stamp set in the video above.
Of the three cards in this class, I think this one is my favorite. The reason I like this one so much is that I was able to feature four different designs from the Delightfully Eclectic Designer Series Paper (DSP). There are so many designs to choose from, too! This card layout is also a great way to use up those DSP strips you have leftover from other projects.
The embellishments I picked out for this class are the Ombre Matte Decorative Dots from the annual catalog. The four colors in this embellishment pack go so well with the DSP pack...Calypso Coral, Old Olive, Coastal Cabana, & Night of Navy. I love how each color grouping comes in two different sizes and five shades to get the ombre look. On today's card, I used the Night of Navy ones. I used three small ones in three of the shades and one large on in the darker shade. The Ombre Matte Decorative Dots are NOT included in the card kits, but you can get them added FREE...
If You Place a $50 Order (before shipping & tax), Using Host Code 3BCDKWBC, You'll Get a Full Pack of the Ombre Matte Decorative Dots Added to Your Card Kits for FREE!
For the inside of the card, I stamped the pretty butterfly from the front onto the bottom, left corner. I could have used both sides of the stamp so I could color the butterfly in, too.
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.
I Didn't Realize!
Someone just let me know that my card goes along with a card sketch that is going on right now over at Global Design Project! I even posted it on the day they started the challenge. 😲
If you want to play along, too, the deadline to post your card and submit it is noon (ET) Sunday, September 10, 2023!
(Note: My Card Kits Above Are No Longer Available)
