Notes from the paper palace

Here' a couple more cards from last Thurs. card class. This one uses one of the Sizzix texture plates. I had a hard time trying to ink up the texture plate to get the color on it so I finally gave up and ran the card stock through the Big Shot and then added the color with a brayer. It was hard to get the color even but it looks better than it did when I tried inking up the plate.

This is just Soft Suede and Whisper White card stock and the pine cone is from the Autumn Days stamp set.

This next card is a very simple back and white card with the Music Expressions stamp set.

I will be posting some pictures of the Make n Takes that we did Saturday at our Holiday Hoopla. We used a half of a Simply Scrapping kit and make the cutest Christmas cards and a beautiful scrapbook in a box. You'll love it. Jan Tink was our guest speaker and she showed us some beautiful tea light holders that we'll be doing some time at card class. You should check out her web site if you have time. www.jantink.com . She's a great stamper and has the most beautiful cards and she's so funny. We spent most of the time laughing.
