Happy 4th July

Happy 4th of July to all my card making friends. This afternoon we will be celebrating with friends with a good ol' BBQ and pool time. 

But before that, I will be in my craft office cleaning it up from my creative messiness as I call it. Making cards these past few weeks for card classes can get a little messy. But it is a good mess. But there just comes a time when the mess needs to be clean so I can start over again. 

I have really enjoyed putting together classes to do. I have made some wonderful new friends. 
These are the cards that we did at my Birthday card class a week ago.  

This one is more on the masculine side- which for me is hard to make at times. 

A clean and simple card with one layer. 

The Open Sea is a good one that I found for more of the "manly" card. 

This one was fun to make. The ladies had a great time making this one. I love the fun bright colors. At first I was not sure about the colors when I had the ink pads just sitting on the table. When they hit the paper- they really popped. 

We used painter's tape for the stripes and this was a hit. No one had heard to use this technique before. I love it as the paint does not stick to the paper and rip it when you pull it up. 

Gifts of Kindness was used for this colorful card. 

Both of these sets can be found on my online store that is open 24/7. 

Have a great day my stamping friends.
