a Hallowe'en card!! Yes, thought I'd show you something a little more current season rather than wishing the weeks away until Christmas! LOL.
This is such a fun card, and easy to create, too! The Midnight Musings jumbo wheel (120863) creates a fast and easy background. The bats & moon are punched out (how easy is that) using the Bitty Bat Large Punch (119279) and the 2-1/2" Extra Large Circle punch (120906).

The inside of this card features more swooping bats – spooooooky! LOL
Also a note that my November class is filling quickly. The first Wednesday of each month is a general card class, cost is $15 to learn to create 4 cards featuring different Stampin' Up! product and various crafting techniques. November's class is a Christmas-themed class! For more information or to register, please contact me.

I love the look of dry embossing, and I LOVE how easy it is with the Big Shot and the Textured Impressions Embossing Folders. This card uses the snowflake folder "Northern Flurry" (featured in Stampin' Up!'s Holiday Mini Catalogue) and the Christmas greeting from the Perfect Punches set, which coordinates with the scallop circle punch. (Love that!!) I like this card so much, I may include it in some upcoming classes and workshops (though participants won't get to make 10 of them like they would in the Card Clinic!!)
Hope you've enjoyed the previews of the Card Clinic designs so far! I do realize, however, that some people aren't thinking ahead as far as I am, so plan on sharing some non-Christmas ideas in the next few posts, too. All the Christmas Card Clinic designs are in the Card Clinic 10 photo album on the right side of the blog. Please feel free to contact me if you have any questions about the clinic at all.

The return of another favourite card design! Using Stampin' Up!'s Lovely as a Tree for the main images, with the masking technique. If you didn't get a chance to make this card previously, you can choose this as your Card Clinic Design, and create 10 of them for $25. The joy of Card Clinic is that I will cut all the cardstock for you and have all the stamps and ink on hand – you just have to show up & follow the instructions and before you know it, you'll have created some beautiful handmade cards for your family and friends. Get some friends together & join us at a clinic! Contact me if you have any questions.

This image always makes me laugh…
I'm including some designs from previous Card Clinics. This one features the reindeers from the Holiday Line Up set. The spotlight technique makes this card a little faster to create – rather than colouring in the entire image, you can just colour a focal section of it.
There's still more design choices to be shown! Card Clinic Dates are starting in a few weeks! Friday, November 5th, Sunday November 7th, Saturday, November 13th, Monday November 15th or Wednesday November 17th. Contact me to reserve your spot!
