Painted Blooms DSP One Sheet Wonders

When I first saw this paper, I fell in LOVE LOVE LOVE!

As I've said before,  I went back to the classroom full time, and it really put a CRAMP in my crafting time! That said, when I saw this paper, I really wanted to have a class and let others learn how amazing this paper is!

I don't do many classes...  this was my 2nd one, I believe.  Maybe it was the third.  I can't remember, it's been so long! 

 The story behind this Designer Series Paper is that this sheet was painted by a designer, and then used as 2 of the sheets in our 12x12 paper pack.

There was a tutorial on Pinterest, and I thought this would be a wonderful class for card-makers of all levels.
Above, I put the cards back in the same order as the original sheet.
Below you can see all 6 cards made with this one sheet of paper with some additions and embellishments.

More in the next post using other sheets from the DSP pack.

BIG Thank You's for our Administrative Assistants.

I purchased the stamp set with the HUGE Thank you for the top piece on the left.  It has a perfect spot to put a rhinestone... and looks so nice!  I never thought I'd actually use that huge Thank You piece... but here it is!  I did it!

 I used 3 of my favorite colors together.  I've talked about these before.  Bermuda Bay (YAY), Melon Mambo, and Daffodil Delight.

I put 3 of these cards together.  They're quite large, with each one using an entire piece of 8 1/2" by 11" folded in half.  Between 22 and 26 students signed the inside of each card, so they needed to be quite large for all those signatures!

Our secretaries do so much for us throughout the school year.  This is just a token of our esteem for them.
