2 CARD SETS Today's online class is a "mega class" we'll be creating 2 sets of 4 cards each, for a total of 8 cards in 1 class! Wowzers! We'll be playing with the retiring Stampin Up Petal Garden DSP, and (sold out) March Paper Pumpkin "May Good Things Grow" card kit to create these beautiful and fun cards. We'll be doing some fun techniques, such as using patterned paper for focal points on the card, working with wood embellishments, and background impressions. I've also included some bonus alternate card ideas below from Stampin Up. SUBSTITUTIONS TO THE MARCH KIT I wanted to include some ideas for a fun "alternate to my alternate" projects with the March kit because it sold out and we can't purchase refills. This kit was so super popular. The retiring Petal Garden Designer Series Paper and Petal Garden Memories & More Kits were perfect substitutions to the kit. I WOOD EMBELLISHMENTS The March "May Good Things Grow" Paper Pumpkin Card Kit was a special 5 year anniversary edition of Paper Pumpkin. It came in this special box, with a special gift of a package of these awesome free Wood Embellishments to play with. They are comparable to our (retiring) Touches of Nature wood embellishments that are in the catalog. A few of you were new to this type of accessory and had asked how to use them. I've used them several different ways on these 2 card sets. I love them plain, and customized. See the video for more details on how to use these fun embellishments. Be sure to stock up on the Touches of Nature wood embellishments before they go extinct.
