6x6 Template Card Stack

From Kathryn's Cards, I found this great 6x6" template. Since I have so much retired paper just laying around, I though this would be the perfect template to try. Here are the two template pages:

Out of those templates, I used 6 sheets of SU's International Bazaar DSP to create 33 cards. That's a lot of cards covering my desktop!

There are four different designs of cards.

Obviously I added the punched out shape and the sentiment to the cards. But Kathryn's examples also have a bit of added flair. I like the end result. This was simple and easy. Perfect for a stamp-a-stack or volunteering event.

Not too much crafting this week. But I did manage to finish my last two swap collections: Black + White and Scraps. Next week, I need to get back to doing my weekly Project Life spreads and do my Stamp Club HW.

Shopping Scores: So much shopping this week! I went a bit crazy, but I'm sure I'll rein myself in and not really buy anything for a few weeks.

We stopped at Joann's after the Meetup to possibly grab some Project Life supplies. Well, the location we went to (Cupertino store) doesn't stock PL. But they were having a huge President's Day sale still with 50% off stickers and embellishments and 40% off paper stacks. Plus I had a mobile coupon for 15% my entire order (sale and regular priced items). Score! I got some adorable 6x6 stacks to make PL cards and maybe some greeting cards.

Also, my two Stampin' Up orders came. Look at the huge stash! It was my hostess month for club and I went a little crazy. My extra large order plus everyone else's resulted in $80 hostess dollars! Holy crap! Here's my haul:

A great stamp club meeting on Monday. I love doing homework every month. It's great to see how everyone else interprets the sketch. I got some great ideas from the others. We also made three great cards. I kept seeing negative cards, but no one had an instruction page. I learned the secret: versa mark ink, glossy paper, and a brayer! I can't wait to try it out myself.

I also did a bit more scrapbooking. Finished summer 2012 for the family album. Now I need to do summer 2012 for the boys' albums. I already have the pictures printed, I just need to actually scrap them into pages. I've decided to keep with my method until October, when I will switch to Project Life. I think it will be a time saver. Plus I really love their simplistic layouts and options for styles. I put a baby themed one on the Amazon baby registry. And I plan on buying a general one for the family album. Can't wait to get started!
