Sympathy & Free Choice

This was Nicole's adorable card for the evening. What a sweet little sentiment and adorable card. The coloring on the wreath really makes this one pop.

BIRD ON A BRANCH!!! (No need to say more.) Thanks for upholding the tradition Teri.


Teri limited herself to only two projects this evening and this is one of them. There were some awesome techniques/tools that went into this one. She had us use a waterbrush over colored pencil to give the flowers and pot a creative look and then we sprayed the paper with some sparkly glitter stuff for a final touch.


Our newest member, Janet, made this card. It is so cute. It is a Cricut card and one of my favorite little details on this one is the little rhinestone in the middle of the phone. Hopefully Janet continues to come, so we can all get more awesome cards like this one.


This was Robin's second card of the night. What is really awesome about Robin's two cards is that they both use the same color scheme and the same stamp set, but they look totally different. What a creative girl our Robin is.


This was Robin's creation!!! It is so stinkin' cute and reads: "A friend is someone who makes it easy." There are a lot of little details that make this card one to come to stampin' club for: the raised heart and flower as well as the flower with a brad in the middle really make this one adorable.


This was Tami's card for the night. It is hard to capture all the little details that make it so adorable, but it reads: "You're never more than a thought away", the flowers are embossed and the little adorable flower buttons really make it pop. Thanks Tami.


This was Roselyn's final project for the night - she had three!!! The bottom reads "a pea in the pod" and the little pea is raised using diamond glaze. Perfect for a baby shower.


I guess that we are all longing for summer. This sweet little card was an altered version of wedding invitations that Roselyn made. What a sweet little whimsical card.


Some people just don't understand the definition of "card". :) This was Roselyn's "card" for the night. The letters and swag are vinyl cutouts using the Cricut machine. This one was an attendee only project and a lot easiser than it looks.

Ashley's card




This is Ashley's sweet sympathy card. I had a hard time getting a crisp photo of it with the flash shining off the background paper that has a wonderful glossy embossed image and flecks of glitter. This card really show it's style in person and it has a very sincere sentiment stamped inside.

Jennifer's card



Jennifer made several versions of cards with different greetings, making my personal selection a challenge. Since I got to sort all the premade cards, I chose this one for myself. It's so cheery and I love the sentiment! Who couldn't use a bit of a fairytale in their lives?

Melanie's cards









These darling cards were made by Melanie! I love the color combinations on both cards and the addition of the layered punches. (Plus I like how she gives me new ideas on how to use the stamp sets I already own!) If you didn't already know, Melanie is very clever!





Stephanie M's card



This is Stephanie M's card - minus a greeting so you can add your own as you wish. I love the richness of the color combination. She always puts together colors I would never think of yet love how they look! She must be a quilter...

Teri's sympathy cards




These are my cards for this evening. Both are blank inside. The one with the tree ended up a little different than planned. This is the first time I've used both the tree stamp set and the punch and the sizing on both were larger than anticipated but that's okay, I think they are cute!
