Today I'm sharing one of 4 cards I created for my most recent FREE online card class. I'm on Session 3 in a series of 4 classes of birthday cards all featuring the same 4 stamp sets. I make one card during each session from my selection of stamp sets:
- Sentimental Swirls
- For the Record
- Artfully Layered
- Friendly Hello (Sale-a-Bration)
I'm focusing on birthday cards as most of us need to build our stash now to be prepared for a year of celebrating birthdays. But each of these handmade cards could easily become another type card by simply switching out the greeting.
My beginner card with Sentimental Swirls, #simplestamping, is perfect for new card-makers, but it is also super fun for us avid crafters! Sentimental Swirls stamp set has so many stamps–and they are fun to use!
For my color scheme, I totally keyed off the Hand-Penned Memories & More Cards & Envelopes which are a real bargain at $10 for 20 pre-scored and printed cards and envelopes! They make quick work of a stack of cards for my stash.
Watch my video demonstration below–Sentimental Swirls is the first stamp set I used in the video. Then check out my SMALL supply list! I love the challenge of #simplestamping to see what I can make with just a few supplies focusing on stamps, ink, and paper.
