I am revising this post to remove the fronts of each of these cards at the request of Sandi Maciver, a fellow demonstrator whom I gain much great inspiration from. This revised post is part of my apology to her. I am still showing the insides of these cards because they are my original creation, taking no inspiration from anyone else.

I am however, still holding my Stamp-a-Stack with these cards on Friday night, October 30th, 6:30 p.m. and Saturday afternoon, October 31st, 2 p.m., so contact me to reserve your spot.

I've been holding a monthly Stamp-a-Stack of Christmas cards so everyone has the opportunity to make a BUNCH of Christmas cards so they will be ready when it is time to mail them out after Thanksgiving. My next Stamp-a-Stack will be Friday night, October 30th, 6:30 p.m. and for once I have almost all the cards al planned and samples stamped ahead of time! Here are 4 of the 5 cards we will be making, using the Ornament Punch, an altered Finial Press Embossing Folder, and "Leaf Lines" stamp set!

Card #1:

Here's the inside:

Card #2:

We will be using Versamark ink to stamp all the images to sprinkle the embossing powder, but on this card we will also be using Versamark to do the "watermark" technique with the holly leaf stamp. This is one Versamark technique that often gets overlooked. By stamping on dark cardstock (which shows this technique the best) with Versamark ink, you get an image that looks just a shade or two darker than the cardstock it is stamped on without having to use that color of ink! Amazing! And the great thing is when the Versamark dries, you can still see the image, the color doesn't fade! Super! All 48 SU! colors, neutrals, and In-Color inks in ONE inkpad!

Card #3:

Inside:

And the fourth card:

There's still one more card "in the vault", (which I did NOT CASE from Sandi Maciver but did CASE from one of my awesome downline, Sandy Dixon), but you'll have to come to the class to see and make it!

Fee is $20 for 10 cards, 2 each of the five different designs or FREE with a $50 order.

Ta Ta for now!
