Fresh Cut Samples
These are all cards made with this month's Stampin' Up Special. Stamp set called Fresh Cuts. I cased the first two cards. I saw them on SCS and thought WOW I had to try these. The last card is my original. I am using this card this month Stamper's Club. It is a gate card. I think this fold is fun and very easy to do with my ScorePal. The technique is the Alcohol with Stampin Up reinkers. Thanks for looking.

Having Fun with Shaving Cream
This is Sassy Suzie. She is from the Occasions Mini Collection. I used the shaving cream technique. It is very easy. I use a Styrofoam tray and cover it with a layer of shaving cream. Take a reinker and add drops all over the shaving cream. To do a card front you only need about 4 or 5 drops. Take a stick and swirl the reinker into the shaving cream. Don't swirl too much or you will mix the reinker with the shaving cream too much. After you are done swirling lay your card stock face down into the shaving cream. Push in to make sure it is covered. Peel the card stock out of the shaving and wipe off the shaving cream. If you have a bowl scraper in your kitchen that would work nice if you don't use a tongue depressor or a scrap piece of card stock. After you get off most of the shaving cream use a paper towel and dry your paper. The card stock will be a little moist, let it dry for a couple of minutes or heat it with your heat tool. Then you are all done! Have fun.
Have a Great St. Patrick's Day!

No Peek Bag Topper
This is a no peek bag topper. I wheeled the bag in brillant blue with the happy birthday wheel. I used my markers and colored the spaceship in then huffed on it to remoisen the ink and then stamped it onto the cardstock. I used the Auzel desinger series paper. The Birthday wishes is a level one hostess set. What is great about using these is you don't have to use tissue paper and that they can't peek. I made these at my last 2 workshops this past weekend. Everyone is ready for a birthday party now. Thanks for looking!

Make A Wish
Here is the first card that my New Stamper's club made. The technique for this month was Dazzling Diamond Dust. The cupcake top has the Dazzling Diamond Dust technique. The technique is very easy. First you stamp your image. When the images are dried completely cover the entire image with Versamark. Sprinkle Iridescent Ice embossing powder over the versamark and heat set. That's its. It looks so sparkle. On the inside of the card I used the stipple brush and pounced it in Blue Bayou and pounced it on the card stock.
Thanks for looking.
