Urban meets A True Classic

I teach card classes to a group of my customers and they are always wanting more masculine cards for the men in their lives.  I too need alot of masculine cards so I understand that they are wanting more.

Well a few catalogs back we had this fabulous masculine stamp set, A True Classic featuring this awesome vintage truck. My ladies requested that I create a whole class around this stamp set.  We concentrate on Christmas themed projects all fall, so it was on my to do for January 2020.

December promotion came out featuring a Bring Back my Pack collection, Urban.  What a great paper collection from the past, and I knew this would be the paper that I would pair up to create for my card class.

So I'm extremely excited to show off my cards for this week's upcoming card class.  Here is Urban meets A True Classic.


I pulled in some Bronze shimmer trim, some Rose Gold Sequins, added some splatter stamps and some doodling to complete the cards.  I hope you like my trio of cards, they are True Classics.

January Cross Canada Blog Hop - Spruced Up

Welcome to our January Blog Hop featuring artwork created using the Spruced Up collection. To purchase any of the items seen in our blog hop today, contact your local consultant to place an order.

We hope that you will take the time to leave comments on our posts, as we love to get feedback from our viewers....whether it was something that you really liked or some new technique that was used that you would like to learn how to do....by leaving us comments, we get to hear what you like, and what you want to see. Thank you… now on to our hop!

If you have just hopped onto my blog, you can start here as this is a circular hop and I'm the first stop on the blog hop. If you came from the fabulous artwork of Valerie then you are in the right place!


For my project I decided to create a 2 page layout.  I love Julep and Sangria together.  This collection is so pretty.  I think I might need to hoard a few packages.  The stickers are available in the collection, or you can choose to purchase the paper without the stickers(not sure why you would choose that option).  I also pulled a few wooden embellishments and added some liquid glass to secure them to my project.  The stickers that overlap the photo placements actually still have the backing on the portion that overlaps.  This was a pretty simple layout to create.





Your next stop on the Cross Canada Hop is Rosalynd and she always amazes me with her creations.
