Stamp Club April Cards

I had Stamp Club last week and we made these four cards.

Language Of Friendship

I think this was my favorite one!  I got the stamp set last year during Sale-a-Bration and don't think I have used it before this time.  I bet this is going to be one of those sets that will be retired .... we'll see this week!!  I love the Designer Brads from the Mini Catalog - added just the right touch, don't you think?

This card uses a retired stamp set but it would be easy to recreate using the Aviary stamp in the current catalog.  The colors I used were Rich Razzleberry, Pear Pizazz and Island Indigo.

Secret Garden

This was a request by a couple of my stamp club gals.  I used Lucky Limeade with Gumball Green leaves.  The flowers are Calypson Coral which I embossed in white and cut out with the framelits.

These two cards were made using the elements from the Pop-Up Posies Kit.  Some of the gals made the flowers using the cupcake liners for flowers and some used the pre-cut flowers.  The middle was cut out with the Labels framelit.

Soda Pop Cap Necklace

I am so in love with this necklace!  When I taught the MDS class a couple of weeks ago, Nancy Carr gave me this great necklace that she made.  I have been wanting to make some of these but I keep forgetting to order the Soda Caps (mini catalog).  I have then on order now but I couldn't wait and bought some this weekend with a gift certificate that I got for my birthday (in October).  I'll be playing with them today since it is pouring down rain here and COLD!!

Nancy used our Silver Glimmer Paper and the Polka Dots DSP.  Her packaging is so cute too!  I just love it.  She used Crystal Effects over the "MDS Rocks"
