Happy Birthday Dots

Every month I have a Card Maker’s Class. I usually have it near the end of the month so that everyone can come and make the cards they need for the following month. There are a variety of cards to choose from usually 12 or more. The class fee includes 6 cards and the envelopes. And you get to choose – make 6 of the same card, pick 3 and make 2 of each, make 6 different ones, what ever combination you want. If you still have time you can make extra’s for a flat per card charge.

I add several new cards each month and the designs usually stay around for 2 or 3 months at a time. So if you don’t get to make one you want chances are it will be available for you to make the next month. Here is one of the card choices that I had in June.

I used the Dots Decorative mask and a sponge dauber to create the background of polka dots. Stamped and cut the balloon from Celebrate Today and layered with a variety of banners. When you want to punch a banner that is thinner than the 1″ guide on the Triple Banner Punch – turn the punch over when you insert the strip and position it in the right spot by eye-balling it. You can change up the colors or use one of the other words in the set to make this card work for other occasions.

Here is the supply list.
