This month the March Madness

Workshop was so much fun!

Have you ever planned an event and did everything that needed to be done, checked everything, reviewed everything and when time comes for the event you realize, I’m totally ready and everything is going to be just right? Well that’s exactly what happened yesterday at the March Madness Workshop!

It was so much fun and everyone loved the projects. In fact they were “wow’ed” at two of them in particular. These projects were so much fun to make and once they put them together you think, “That was so easy and the finished cards have a fun twist to them.” Thank Amy Combs for the designs and ideas.

The highlight of the workshops each month of course are the projects, but this month we had a special St. Patrick’s Day treat from my good friend Carol. She made cake pops with white frosting and green sparkles. They were so good! Carol is such a good baker……think back to the wonderful Christmas cookies she made! Thank you Carol.

Here are some pictures of the projects we made and of the ladies being very creative. Sorry I missed taking a picture of the cake pops.

This card was made with the free Sale-a-Bration Cake Soiree Memories & More kit, some Wink of Stella, white doilies and voila! We used the Thank You stamp from the Petal Palette set. Super super simple but so pretty. The picture doesn’t show the beauty of the Wink of Stella. I love love love Wink of Stella. It gives just the right amount of shine and glitter.

This is one of the fun fold cards we made. Again very easy to make, but a really cool result and a “WOW” card! We used the blends on this card. Boy are they ever fun to work with. They blend so smoothly there are so many ways to use them and you can even clean up a little mess if you happen to color outside the lines. The Petal Palette stamp set along with the Petals and More Framelits dies are the perfect fit for using the Blends. You have to try them.

This is the card when it is folded. A regular 4-1/4″ x 5-1/2 card to fit in a regular envelope.

Do you need a greeting card that will hold a gift card? Birthday, Graduation, Mother’s Day, Father’s Day? Then this is the card for you. We made this sweet birthday card using the Picture Perfect Birthday stamp set and some of the most fun festive colors we have. It’s also a fun fold card and just a little stamping and a whole lot of “How did you do that?” Super Cute! See the picture below for the inside where you can see the spot for the gift card.

Do you see the gift card holder just above the green ribbon tucked under the DSP. Again, super easy and super cut

This card as with the Thank You card above, it’s all about the Blends. Are you beginning to see how versatile the Blends are and what great shading you get from applying the color in the right place. Did you know that you can color almost anything with the Blends? For example, we carry white dots and you can use the Blends to color the dots to match the project. Who knew right? You just have to get the Blends! You won’t be sorry.
