See the Fun Star in the brad on the tractor wheel:

 

I love mixing the twine and ribbon on this card:

Lots of punch art in this card, but also notice the linen thread that makes up the hair and comes out of the shirt sleeves!

 

I used the "thumping" technique on the trees in this card. And love how the chocolate chip brad looks on here:

 

Happy Stamping!

Thankful Thoughts Class-CLARIFICATION

Of course you can also do this class as a Wild Card Class if neither of the above dates work for you. Read about the Wild Card Class here. Cost for the Thankful Thoughts Class is $10 for 8 harvest/Thanksgiving themed cards (4 styles, 2 of each)

Pictures of the Thankful Thoughts Class will be posted later this weekend.

Because of the confusion, I have extended the deadline to RSVP to Monday, November 2 at 5pm.

Gettin Punchy October 12 or October 29

Here are 2 samples of the upcoming Gettin Punchy Class (details below). You can still sign up, but your punch will be late arriving since the order has been placed. :)  I had so much fun making these cute cards.  Remember, we are featuring the Large Oval Punch this month.  The class fee includes the punch and the class projects! Don't forget about the deal of the week here.  I will order everyone's punches from the Deal of the Week (charging you only 50% of your shipping cost) on Saturday evening.

And I have 2 definite people and a "maybe" for Stamp Club. We're almost there!  Read about Stamp Club in the right hand column.  Contact me if you have questions or want more information.  We could also meet every other month if the group would prefer, rather than every month! Stamp Club is a great way to put your stamping on a budget and get out regularly to learn new techniques and get to know new people! So, there's my plug for that. :)

Monday, October 12 at 7:00pm Gettin Punchy! We are going to create fun cards using punches in different ways. This month we will use the large oval punch as a focus (pg 186 of your catalog), among other punches. The class will include the large oval punch for you to take home with you! Cost is $20.(*note the punch alone is a $15.95 value). RSVP as soon as possible or no later than Oct 1. This class requires payment when you sign up.
