Back to School with Hello Kitty

Genevieve Speegle
My niece is starting the 4th grade tomorrow and I wanted to make her a special back to school card.
She loves Hello Kitty and I found this great SVG file for those of you who use Sure Cuts a Lot with your Cricut.  I added red glitter to her bow using Martha Stewart’s Garnet glitter and some Ranger Glossy Accents. 

I also hand-cut the pencil and paper from the Cosmo Cricket “The Boyfriend” line of cardstock.
I used lots of sold cardstock and white ink to make the card itself look like a chalk board.
I’m off to see her now ~ hope she likes it!

School Has Never Been So Fun!

Genevieve Speegle
I’ve seen the isles full of rainbow-colored folders and matching highlighters make their way into the grocery stores.  You know what that means ~ school days are just around the corner!
Even though my little guy is still too young for school, I’ve been getting into the spirit of things with a darling collection of classroom-inspired pin-up cards.
These are the perfect gift for a teacher (probably one you know vs. your 2nd grader’s instructor), new graduate or college student.
School has never been so much fun!

FELT You Might Like These Card Class ~ September 5

Genevieve Speegle
Join me at Scrappin’ Time on Sunday, September 5 from 1-3pm

A full pack of Basic Grey Felties will be here on September 5th to greet you! Let’s get busy crafting, shall we?

Each unique card has been created with the warmth of a September evening in mind. I love making cards into one-of-a-kind shapes, so we’ll be making one of the greetings into a purse and another one into an octagon with hand-stitched elements!

Sunday, September 5

1-3pm

Cost of the class is $25 and includes all the materials needed (please bring the basics: scissors, a strong adhesive (such as Zip Dry) and a needle for sewing).

Call the store at 702-898-7414 or stop by:
5915 South Eastern Avenue #106

to reserve your seat ~ space is VERY limited!

Would you like to make the cards, but don’t have the time to come into the store for the class?

Kits are now available!!

When you call to reserve the class, just mention that you’d like the kit only and I’ll be sure to have it ready for you (along with pictures and detailed instructions for your convenience). Just pick it up and scrap at your leisure!!
