Snail Mail and a new Online Class

 Happy Thursday?!? Yep...this is two days late posting. Somehow when I scheduled it to post I messed up the date. I didn't notice until this morning that it hadn't posted yet...my apologies!

This week I am all about the Snail Mail Suite from the January-June Mini Catalogue. I featured it in my weekly Facebook live on Tuesday AND I'm launching a brand new online class...part of my collaboration with my uber-talented Stampin' Up! sister, Michelle Suit.

Now for today's project...check out this cuteness...

Now, at first glance this suite may appear to be kid-focused, but I'm here to tell you it is perfect for just about anyone. I mean seriously, who wouldn't love to receive this fun card in the mail??

I challenged myself to use several different patterns from the Designer Paper pack...I love how well they all work together. My adorable little gift-bearing snail is stamped in Basic Gray ink and then coloured with Light Flirty Flamingo, Light Bermuda Bay, Light Real Red, Dark Daffodil Delight and Dark Pool Party Stampin' Blends. I used the coordinating Snail Dies to cut him out and then popped him up on a die-cut postage stamp from the same die set. 

 

To stamp my sentiment, I used Real Red and Bermuda Bay Stampin' Write markers so that I could highlight the word SNAILED...I love puns! I added some white baker's twine and itty bitty resin hearts to embellish and step up the cuteness factor just a little.

On the inside, I added a Basic White card stock panel and adhered some adorable little snail friends that I fussy-cut from the DSP. So, so cute!!

I demonstrated this card and two others using this suite in my weekly live video over on my Facebook Business page. You can catch the replay, posted on my YouTube channel, below:
