May Class Follow-Up and June Classes

 Hey Everybody,

Thank you once again for another fun-filled and learning-filled week of classes.

I love spending time with you and learning from your experiences. You are such a creative and loving bunch of friends. I truly loved all of the hugs this week!

Blessings,

Sue

 May Class Follow-Up

 On=Online Exclusives found here

Links to products are in bold print.

Stampin’ Up now has a blog full of great information and ideas. Here is the link.

 

Products Discussed In Some Classes:

 Purchase a Stampin' Up!© white ink pad, which is empty of ink. Get an ink refill of Memento Tuxedo Black ink and put it on the foam pad. This will give you the convenience of the all-in-one lid and case and a  better inking surface.

UNINKED STAMPIN’ PAD & WHITE CRAFT REFILL

$10.50



New or Revisited Ideas:

 Stamp several times on your scrap paper with the stamp you've used to get most of the ink off of the stamp. This way there will be less ink going onto your stamp cleaner so you won't have to clean it as often.

You can use an alcohol marker such as Stampin' Blends  or a Copic Marker to color light colored embellishments to match your projects. (Click on the words or images for more information.)

    



Look at the punches you have.  Can they be used with scraps to make backgrounds for cards? click on the image for a link.
  





We now have opportunities to donate cards to three different facilities

Stamping Opportunities:

     1. Southwest General Hospital -Cards are placed on meal trays.

2. Broadview Multi-Care Facility- Cards for residents and staff to use.
