LAUNCHING TODAY! The latest YamStamps online class! Clever Cards shows you five different card patterns that you can use in your crafting. If you feel the need to step up your cardmaking, or want to move on from making simple cards to simply amazing cards, this is the class for you! The class covers how to create these cards: Double Z Fold, Curved Strips, Secret Message, Rotating Image and Twisting Pop Up. Each card has a photo, at least one video showing the construction & decoration of the card, supply list (featuring Stampin’ Up! supplies), and written, downloadable instructions. Lifetime access means you can return to class materials over and over again, when you need them. Online class means as long as you have internet access, you can watch and learn wherever you are, whenever you have the time! You can find out more information about this class, and register HERE. To see more about some of the other online classes that I have available, you can visit the YamStampsMore page.
I can promise that THIS will not happen in class videos….
because this was edited out! I think editing out my goof ups and slip of the lips took longer than anything else….
I hope that you will join me in this online class. I enjoy clean and simple cardmaking, but sometimes, by changing up a few folds and adding some elements, you can turn a simply stamped card into something even more impressive! These are the cards that will impress the friends and family who don’t usually appreciate your handmade cards as much as they should…..I’m sure we all know a few of those people, don’t we?! LOL. If you’re a auditory or visual person (like me), you’ll appreciate the video to listen to and watch what’s going on. If you’re a reader, the written instructions will come in handy (plus they’re downloadable so you can print them out to refresh your memory as you are making your own versions!
Anyway! I am already at work at the next online class focusing on watercolouring on cards. I’ll have to come up with some snappy name for that I guess. Suggestions welcome 🙂
In the meantime, I am working on a few last minute Valentine’s Day giftables (did you catch any of my segments on Cogeco TV’s Halton Insider last week?! Lots of little crafty ideas there!) Hey – you could purchase the Clever Cards online class and whip up one of the fancy cards in time to give to someone tomorrow?! Happy Crafting.
OK Remember when I mentioned having some technical difficulties at Christmas? Well….they’ve been resolved, so THIS is what you were supposed to see on Christmas Day….better late than never??!!! Belated holiday greetings from me, with help from the musical group Pentatonix!
and a holiday throwback musical interlude to enjoy when you are crafting….I LOVE their version of this song!
You may know that I sing in a choir, and we do a lot of a cappella singing (unaccompanied), so I love this group, and what better gift than to share greetings with all of you?! Better late than never? (much like some of the Christmas cards I’m still sending LOL).
Here’s a holiday card to complete the belated greeting…a shaker card featuring the Detailed Santa Thinlits that are still available, even though the Holiday Catalogue is finished. Ho Ho Ho!
OK back to crafting – more samples to come later this week!

Happy Boxing Day! In the new year, I’ll be launching another YamStampsMore Online Class – this one will be “Clever Cards”! It will focus on card designs and techniques, rather than a particular stamp set or product. This way, you can use the class to learn how to make a variety of “not your basic half fold cards”, and add your own creative touch by using whatever stamps, ink and embellishments you have on hand. Think more 3D type card projects or movement based cards – like pop up cards. The projected cost of this online class is $20 Canadian, but during the Preorder, you can purchase the class in advance for just $10 Canadian! If you purchase your class before the end of the year, you’ll also receive access to an exclusive additional project.
Please note that this is a PREORDER. You will be notified when the class goes live and you will be able to access the class materials and bonus project at that time. Much like my other online classes, it will feature full instructions and video for each individual project, lifetime access, and is open to students from around the world. At time of this post, there are a minimum of four different projects to be featured.
Please click on the button to complete your payment – you will be taken to a registration page to record your name and best email so that you can receive notification once the class is open. Please note that this preorder button will be deleted December 31, 2016.
For 24 hours only or while supplies last, you can grab these items at deep discounts. Click on the image to visit the YamStamps Online Stampin’ Up! store to place your online order. If you have any questions, feel free to contact me. I’ll do my best to respond asap, but I am going to have intermittent internet access this week.
