Custom Card Class - Rasberry Tart












These are some pictures of a Stamp Class I am offering on June 3! These cards feature the Raspberry Tart designer paper. This is a unique class in which participants will make 8 cards with a blank spot on each one to add the sentiment to fit their need at the time the card is given. A variety of sentiments will be stamped on “stickers” that you punch with the large oval punch and you peel the back off of and place on your card when needed. Each card has a white base with designer paper and a scallop edge. These cards would be a great gift. A matchbox using the Big Shot holds the sentiments. If giving this as a gift, you could also include postage stamps in the matchbox. The idea for the custom cards concept is from Nichole Heady.
If you would like to sign up for my class, please email me at karieklundstamps@gmail.com.

Embossing Made Easy!






These two cards were made at a class I offered. They are EASY to make, but look beautiful! They were made using the Big Shot and the SU!'s Manhattan Flower Embossing Folder. The sentiment was created using the Oval All stamp set and Oval Scallop Punch that are featured in the mini catalog. The base of the card is shimmer white cardstock which may be hard to tell in the photo.
