This weekend we had our monthly meeting of my downline, the "Yes Ma'am! Stampers", and the projects we made and the samples that were shared were just fabulous! I had to show you a few!
I have always encouraged my downline to bring samples of the cards and projects they have been showing in the past month since our last meeting, and this time Linda brought some great ones:
Here's her version of the flower pot card with the "Cherry Blossom Embosslit, Boho Blossoms punch, and Five Petal Flower punch:
Here she used the "Good Friend" stamp set with Cameo Coral and "Tea Party" DSP:
On this one she used Inspired By Nature and the Embossing Resist Technique:
She used the "Just Beachy" stamp set and "Lazy Days" Jumbo wheel for this summery card!
I love the way she combined the "Fifth Avenue Floral" with the "Manhattan Flower" Embossing folder:
She made some really cute new purses with the "Parisian Breeze" DSP!
A couple of weeks ago I and several of the "Ma'am's" traveled to Champaign, IL, to attend a fun meeting just for demonstrators. At this meeting we had the opportunity to see several fun techniques demonstrated by some very talented demonstrators, and this is Linda's version of the technique to use the Scalloped Circle punch to create beautiful coneflowers!

Each meeting we discuss current stampin' topics of interest, then we stamp! We learn three new techniques or projects at each meeting, often presented by different members of the "Ma'am's!" (Don't worry, if you have been thinking about joining our group with the $75 Starter Kit this month, participation in the meetings AND in presenting is COMPLETELY voluntary! I NEVER make anyone demonstrate for the group unless they want to!)
This month we stamped these projects:
First Wendy showed us this project CASED directly from our demonstrator monthly magazine, Stampin' Success. We used the "Fifth Avenue Floral" set and Urban Oasis DSP!
Next, Jan used the same set and DSP to show us how to do the "Floating Reinker" technique to make beautifully watercolored roses! We watercolored the rose on Shimmery White cardstock:
Last but not least, Sara showed us how to do the "Faux Frosting" technique, one of the techniques that were demo'ed at the Champaign event we went to!

We meet and learn techniques every month! The $75 Starter Kit deal only lasts until May 31st, so contact me today and join in the fun!

Tell me more about faux frosting. Sure looks special! 🙂 Blessings – Becky
