Geometry Class – 8-22-12

August 22, 2012 Current Challenges, Geometry Class, Sketches 3 comments

It’s Sketch Challenge time here at Stamp School!  I came up with an easy sketch and a CAS card.  I just am happy with clean and simple cards!

Here is the sketch;

And, here is my card;

 

See the fun button?  Quickly, 3 punched circles- glue together, punch 2 holes — holding button with tweezers in the holes (leaves holes open that way) – emboss with clear embossing powder.  I absolutely LOVE self made buttons! — So easy to have the exact match in color for anything you make!

Have fun with the sketch!  Remember you have until August 31st at 11:59 pm to play along. We’ll pick one winner to get a really great prize package!

Thanks for stopping by~

Geometry Class – 05-09-12

May 9, 2012 Cards, Geometry Class, Sketches 3 comments

Hi Everyone – Vicki here today with the Geometry Class sketch.

Here is my card using Stamp School’s Christian Sympathy and Natural Landscape.

To achieve this look, I made a template the same size as my card, and cut out a circle.

Using Pop Tone Lemon Drop and Pop Tone Orange Fizz, I sponged inside of the template. Then, I stamped my tree.

Taking a post it, I taped it down and sponged on licorice for the ground.
I made my banner and popped up the image with pop dots, and my card is complete~

This is a sketch challenge, so I hope you join in and play! Be sure to link your creation with Inlinkz at the bottom of this post. I would love to see your creations~ Remember, there is a random WINNER at the end of the month for some great goodies!

What I love about this card is that it’s monochromatic.  I’ve said it time and again…green and yellow are the welcome mats for Spring.  No where is that more applicable than on a Mother’s Day Card.  I can’t WAIT to see how you use this sketch.  Now remember, you can flip it, reverse it and turn it up side down.  It’s yours to play with!

Geometry Room Sketch Challenge 04/04/12

April 4, 2012 Cards, Geometry Class, Sketches No comments

Hi everyone!  Amber here from The Country Scrapper to teach this week’s Geometry Class.  I have been so inspired by the April release from Stamp School.  Tonite I’m sharing a very fun sketch that is super easy to follow.

A very simple sketch….but there’s so much you can do to dress it up.  Take a look at my card:

One of my favorite techniques is stamping a coordinating ink color on to matching card stock.  For this card I started with a Razzleberry (hot pink) card stock base.  I then took a piece of lighter pink card stock (Bubblegum) and layered it on top.  I stamped my sentiment with the darling “Women In My Life” Sentiment Stamps.  I took a stamp from the “Flowers for Mom” Stamp Set and stamped it using Bubblegum Ink onto my Bubblegum Card Stock.  I cut 2 banners out of Banana Split Felt.  I added ribbon, a cameo, and pin.  I used Liquid Pearl at the bottom of my Bubblegum Card Stock for added shine.  I love the Springy colors that make up this card.

We’re adding a submission form below this post. Make up your card and post it on your blog (with a link to our blog of course). Submit your card by adding  a direct link to your card below. You have until 11:58 on the last day of the month to upload any challenge entries.

Hello! Samantha here with a brand new sketch challenge.  Sometimes I just want a clean and simple card that I can make quickly, so I tried to come up with a sketch that would work well with that type of card. Here it is:

I love using black, white, and red together so I combined those colors with the above sketch  and this months newly released stamps, and this is what I came up with:

The words from To the Future are so elegant that they really need very little dressing up. The make a beautiful focal point for a clean and simple card.

I used some Stamp School Felt in the Razzleberry, Berrylicious and Blue Raspberry to create a little flower bow that can actually be detached and re-purposed for a gift or a hair accessory.

You can take the sketch and make it your own.  I love sketches, have them doodled everywhere.  I recommend having a small notebook on hand to keep sketches in, so they are available for quick inspiration.  Here’s my card using today’s sketch: Pin It
