Celebrating World Cardmaking Day!

Happy World Card Making Day!! Although in my house, that would be everyday! How are you celebrating? I am heading over to the Scrapbook and Cards Today YouTube channel to watch free video classes all day and maybe even win a prize. AND I am having breakfast with a bunch of crafty friends and then we are heading to Harts N Scraps to help them celebrate their one year anniversary with 20% off everything in the store, prizes, cake and snacks!! If you live anywhere near Rothschild/Wausau Wisconsin, you are not going to want to miss this! I teach monthly classes at Harts N Scraps and there are many other classes you can check out too. The savings everyday are fantastic, but that day- WOW! 

I just finished another awesome weekend of classes at SCT's Crop and Create and as part of this special day I am going to share most of the cards I created so far. But I am no where near done. After cutting for my October classes and finishing up some video and blogging deadlines, I am going to go back and make many more cards with this unbelievable box of products and inspiration from the amazing teachers including Jennifer McGuire! 

I loved Gina K's class and cards and made them just as she taught using the colors she recommended:




Another favorite class was Altenews and here the cards I made:




We started the 4 days of classes with Sara of  Crafter's Companion reminding us how fun gilding flakes are to play with:



How about these cards from Stamps of Life and Spellbinders that are Merry and Bright? (The Spellbinders bow and tree shaped letter dies are going to be available very soon for purchase as are many of the other products you see.)




I am a huge fan of Pear Blossom Press One Lights and we were gifted one in our box which I used to light up Taylored Expressions layered stencil cake:



Here are the rest of the cards I made so far with Picket Fence Studios, Honey Bee Stamps, Lawn Fawn, Scrapbook.com and Hero Arts:






Hope you have a crafty World Card Making Day and then send some of your handmade joy out into this world!

I am entering the first card in the Stencil Fun challenge at Simon Says Wednesday.

  1. Karen, These are absolutely amazing! That was some weekend. Each card I would say, "Oooh, that's my favorite." Then I would come to the next card. LOL Hope you are having great fun celebrating WCMD with your friends.
