Sunday Crafting
Every Sunday we craft via zoom and create fun stuff. Sometimes cards, sometimes mini albums, sometimes sharing techniques, and sometimes just crafting and chatting. Interested in joining us, just reach out to me!
Currently we meet at 8:00 PM EST.
Here are some of our recent creations.
Sunday November 3, 2024 - Vicki taught us the accordian mini album. Using directions from Einat Kessler (see video directions here) we made these beautiful mini albums. There are a lot of pages. The foundation and designer paper covering can be completed in just a couple of hours.
Sunday October 20, 2024 - Vicki taught us the three diamond card. Using directions from Vicky K, from a class from a few years back, Vicki resized the card to our stardard A2 card and "simplified" it a bit for a beautiful, fun, and easy card. Find the tutorial here! On our October 6th we just chatted and worked on our own projects.
Sunday September 22, 2024 - Margery taught us a fancy fold with a boxy front edge. Vicki taught us a shadow box card. And, as always, we had a great time chatting and creating! Find the directions for the shadow box card here.
Sunday September 8, 2024 - We made Pop Out Accordian fun fold cards following directions by Lynn Dunn, suggested by Margery who subscribes to her blog. See her tutorial here. It was a bit more complicated than we expected, but we completed our cards! Everyone had a great time. No class next week.
Sunday August 25, 2024 - Phyllis walked us through making a fun and easy folio album. A similar tutorial can be found here. Since everyone is so busy at the end of summer, we decided to change our zoom meeting to every other Sunday for a few months. No class next week.
Sunday August 18, 2024 - Margery showed us how to make cute christmas trees from circles. A similar tutorial can be found here.
Sunday August 11, 2024 - we are still making cards using various one sheet wonder templates. Tonight I adapted a tutorial from Lynn Dunn. In the original tutorial she makes 12 cards with one sheet of designer paper (and of course matching cardstock). I changed it to make 9 cards (4 x 4 pieces) with one 12 x 12 sheet, along with 9 peices of 1 x 4, and 1/4 x 4 scraps. Find the original tutorial here. Last week 8/4 we chatted and crafted...
Sunday July 28, 2024 - tonight's cards were created using 6 pieces of 6" x 6" paper. We used the template from Julie Davidson. You can access her Pick Six tutorial here. Last week 7/21 we chatted and crafted...
Sunday July 21, 2024 - we revisited the fold from June 30th below.
Sunday July 14, 2024 - tonight we made cards using the Stack, Cut, & Shuffle Technique. We used the template from Cheryl at Paper Panacea. You can access her tutorial here.
Sunday July 7 2024 - Debbie and Phyllis had a great time chatting, crafting, and working on Paper Pumpkin Kits! (The rest of us couldn't make it on the Zoom) Debbie made alternate cards using the March 2020 kit, No Matter the Weather, and December 2020 kit, Beary Comforting. Phyllis made some alternate cards using the Enjoy the Adventure card pack.
Sunday June 30, 2024 - tonight we worked on a fun fold using this tutorial from Klompen Stampers - Fun Fold Card Making Templates - volume 2. You can also see other cards using these folds on our Paper Pumpkin Page, June 2024 Life is Sweet. (Sherry skedaddled out early and missed getting in the photo!)
Sunday June 9, 2024 - Phyllis taught some fun inking techniques using water based ink and alcohol. It is interesting how the ink changes colors when it comes into contact with the alcohol. (We skipped June 16th for Father’s Day, and June 23 was a chat and craft where just a few of us got together and worked on our own projects.)
Sunday June 2, 2024 - tonight we made a fun fold window card that bends, using this tutorial from Lisa Curcio. Here is a direct link to her printable directions too!
Sunday May 26, 2024 - We made the same fancy fold online that we made in our in-person card class. So fun seeing how everyone adapts it to their own style. Debbie also made a super cute "onesie" baby card too. Find the tutorial for the fancy folds here! And other samples here (from the in-person card class).
Sunday May 19, 2024 - We continued to play with inking techniques. This time using saran wrap in two different ways. 1. Smooch it up and dab ink onto the card 2. Crincle the wrap and lay it out on a surface, then ink the wrap and lay the cardstock onto the inked saran wrap. (We skipped May 12th for Mother's Day)
Sunday May 5, 2024 - We made a cute double Z card using this tutorial by Debbie Henderson. It looks like it would be difficult to make, but it is easy and fun!
Sunday April 28, 2024 - Phyllis showed us some really fun stamping techniques, using bubble wrap, painters tape (my favorite), and white crayons. We had a blast!
Sunday April 21, 2024 - we continue with triangle cards using this tutorial from Teri's Stamping Magic.
Sunday April 14, 2024 - We made cute triangle split cards following this tutorial by another stampin up demonstrator. PS Paper Crafts
Sunday March 17 -Sunday April 7, 2024 - We all worked on our own projects.
Sharon finished up her One Sheet Wonder Cards, Debbie worked on her Paper Pumpkin Alternates and Vicki designed and cut the cards for card class coming up on Thursday. The bunny card was 'cased' (create & share everywhere) from Debbie's cute bunny card.
