Studio Calico May Reveal

Hi everyone! It's reveal time at Studio Calico! All new kits and add-ons were already available during an exclusive pre-sale for subscribers only and they are now available to everyone for purchase in the Studio Calico store! Be aware that they often sell out quickly, so get yours today to avoid disappointment!

If you ask me, this month's kits are absolutely amazing! They all are filled with some awesome, bright and happy stuff! Today, I’m sharing a few cards I made using the Camelot main card kit and add-ons.

My first card is created with a beautiful stamp set by 1canoe2 from the main kit! Such a great design isn't it?! I used a gold glitter to add an extra special finish to the cake.

happy birthday

For the second card I also used the stamp set by 1canoe2. I had so much fun creating this background using all those flowers. And the smallest leaves are created with a flame stamp!

thank you

For my next card I used a patterned paper and Color Theory Mini Alpha stickers in black, both from the Morgan add-on kit. The flowers are from the stamp set that comes with the main kit.

hello

To create my last card I used stamps from the Morgan add-on kit. I so love the versatility of this set and really enjoyed playing with it! Circles, balloons, bubbles, flowers…or berries! Whatever your imagination will bring on!

happy everything

I hope you feel inspired to check out these new products! You can also pop over to the Studio Calico gallery for more inspiration and ideas from the Creative Team!

Thanks for stopping by today!

Sunday Sketch and Mixed Media Class

Hi Everyone! I’m popping in to share a card I made for the latest Sunday Sketch at Studio Calico! You’ve still got time to play along for a chance to win a $5 GC to the Studio Calico Shop!

hooray

I used here sentiment stamps and confetti dies from the Bluegrass Farm Card Kit. To create the rays I used a watercolour technique using Color Theory ink pads: Deja Blue, Something Blue, Emerald City, Mint Hint and Sunny Day.

And speaking about techniques - there are still a couple of days to sign up for the Mixed Media class, if you haven't already done so!


Registration for this class will close on 4/30/2014 at 11:59PM EST and believe me, you don't want to miss it! You can find all the details HERE.
