Some March Cards

Hannah is off to a classmate’s birthday party this afternoon so I whipped up a birthday card in a flash with the help of the newest addition to my punch collection – my star punch.

This month Reverse Masking is one of the techniques we’ve been tackling.  This is the technique you need if you have a frame or outline that you want to fill in with a larger stamp. 

And here is a sneak peek at a new catalogue stamp set called Greetings Eight and I’ve used Chocolate Chip and one of the new In Colours – Riding Hood Red.

Here is another of our ‘Rock ‘n’ Roll’ cards from this month’s technique classes. This time I’ve used Embrace Life and the retiring Bodacious Bouquet.

And now for a quick money saving tip …

If you are matting with a coordinating cardstock piece and either have almost run out (blush – could that be me!) or wish to get the most out of your cardstock, here’s something to try.  Just use two narrow pieces instead of a whole wider piece.  Here is my stamped panel from the back before I attached it to the card.

Happy creating, Sue
