Seasonal Wreath Class

Don't you just love wreaths?! I do! I have wreaths for every season all over my house! At Christmas I decided to make a wreath using the Sprig punch and a couple of colors of Stampin' Up! paper as a Christmas gift, but, to make it seasonal, I made 4 flowers representing the 4 seasons of the year. I adhered a Velcro dot to my wreath and the flowers so I can change them out each season. I mounted the wreath on a greyish color wood panel. It was so popular, I have decided to offer a class where you will make the wreath and the 4 flowers. The class will be held:

Saturday, February 9th at 12:00

There are several options:
If you only need the paper the cost is $10.
If you need paper and the punch, the cost is $20.
If you need paper, the punch, and the wood panel, the cost is $30.
The deadline to sign up for this class is January 29th, if you will need the punch ordered for you.
Let me know if you are interested.
Below are pictures of all 4 seasons:

Global Design Project #172-Valentine's Day Octopus

I decided to branch out and submit an entry into the Global Design Project #172 challenge, CASE the designer #GDP172.

(CASE=Copy and Selectively Edit) 

Below is the sketch from the designer, Shawn De Oliveira, that we are CASEing.

Global Design Project #172

With my Valentine's Day Cards classes beginning next week, I thought it would be appropriate to design a card with a Valentine's Day theme, thus swimming in is my Valentine Octopus! What you can't see from this picture is that my octopus is mounted on a spring or wobble so he bounces back and forth!

Tips an Tricks:

Card stock sizes:  

• Basic Grey 5 ½” x 8 ½”, 2 ¾” strips to cut net, Balmy Blue 4” x 5 ¼”, Whisper White 5” x 3 ¾”, Smoky Slate 2 ¾” strips for octopus and sand dollars, Real Red 1 ¾” x 8 ½” strips
• The Balmy Blue was embossed with the Seaside embossing folder and shimmered up with Wink of Stella.
• I cut the net in a rough heart shape.
• On this card I stamped the octopus on Whisper White with Smoky Slate, but have decided he looks better stamped on Smoky Slate with Smoky Slate ink.
• Of course I had to add the hearts left from the heart strip that was adhered across the bottom to each of his tentacles.
  

Below is the inside of the card:

This card is going to my 2-year-old grandson on Valentine's Day, and that is why I chose this sentiment-So Many of My Smiles Begin With You!
