It's That Retiring Time of Year

 Welcome back! This week the Sisters in Stamping's Fabulous Friday post features the 2020 Retiring List, that was published last week. Here is my project--

 I wan to mention a few things about this card.... I used sponge daubers to make the polka dot background and I colored that cute little worm's bow tie and rhinestone in with markers.

Here is a photo of the inside of this birthday card. It's a real shame that this set is retiring so soon! As you can see by the photo below, this set (Check You Out, #149462) has some really cute pieces to it.... I was so looking forward to using the eyeglasses and that tiny graduation hat 😔

That's all I have for this week, make sure you go over to the Sisters blog to see what the other girls have to show. 

Happy Stamping, Karla 😊

PS. A quick link to the PDF of Retiring product from the Occasions Mini Catalog too.

CASE'ing the Holiday Mini

Our duties this week at the Sisters in Stamping blog are to CASE a card from the Holiday Mini Catalog. Here is my card--

I used the So Santa stamp set and markers to color in my Santa. I really like everything about this set, the little Santa's are so cute and I love the font SU! used with the wording. The card I CASE'd is on page 23 of the Mini, top right hand corner. I did make some changes...I made it into a full card and I used another Santa from the set.

Hopefully we will see you next week, we're going to be doing Shaker Cards.

Happy Stamping, Karla 😉

Fabulous Scrapbooking Pages

Hello! Today on the Sisters in Stamping blog we are focusing on scrapbook pages. Here is my 6x6 page for this week--

I used one of the sets (that I love dearly-boo hoo) that will be retiring the end of May called Inspired by Nature. I used Always Artichoke, More Mustard and Chocolate Chip Markers to color the flowers. 

I recently started teaching a Mother Daughter Class. Last month when we made a scrapbook page one of the 8 year olds asked, "what am I gonna do with this?" Legitimate question I thought, and I said something like, "you could put magnets on the back of it and hang it on the refrigerator."

Later I had a AH HA design moment, what if at the next class I had them put magnets on the back of a page protector and they put their monthly 6x6 scrapbook page on the frig in it? So there you have it-- every month they come to the class they have a new page for the frig, and the beginning of a Album of their own. Here is the back of the page protector, we trimmed the binder side off and placed sticky magnets on each corner.

Thank-you for stopping by today. Hopefully you'll be able to come by next Friday, it's my week and I've picked retiring stamp sets as the theme.

Happy Stamping!
