Design Team Wednesday- Spotlight on Kathy

Let's take a look at some of the wonderful art that Kathy has shared with us over the years here at Stamp Fever. If you want gorgeous vintage style or something just a bit quirky then Kathy is the crafter for you!

I love these vintage cards with a feminine style. Kathy always adds interesting embellishments that take her projects over the top!

She's got the artsy vintage style down too!

Here's a few of Kathy's project that really show her creativity and her eye for color.

This photo collage is of a fairy garden that Kathy created using Configurations boxes...can you say "attention to detail?"

Kathy is teaching 2 different classes this week check out these gorgeous samples:

Thursday Techniques Class: 11:30 - 1:30 or 6:00 - 8:00

Saturday Card Class at 10:00am

Ivy's Got a Great Idea for Mother's Day

Wouldn't a special woman in your life love to receive a gift card in a special little tin that you made yourself?

The best part is that it can be re-used to hold little trinkets or an emergency sewing kit after the gift card is removed.

Sign up for Ivy's class this Saturday at 10am and you will have the perfect gift for Mother's Day along with two lovely cards all designed with sweet rolled flowers from a die cut.

Call Linda at Stamp Fever today and make plans for a crafty Saturday morning this week!
