Class Cards and TS5 Deadline

These are two of the cards we did in our card class this week.

We had fun with metallic gelatos in this first card.  The book paper is from an 1880's Latin textbook I picked up at an antique store. I found out just how fragile this type of paper is when I tried to use a tape runner adhesive on the back.  It tore and started to roll up in my tape runner!  A glue stick worked best on it.  The background on the card base is a series of border stamps repeated.

For the bookmark and pocket, I used some retired Stampin' Up! paper and coordinating stamp.  They usually do a clearance in October.  I'll be sure to update on my blog when I see the clearance rack updated.  When SU! marks thing down, they are a steal.

Also, I wanted to mention that True Scrap 5 registration continues.  You can now use the discount code LUCKY50 to save $50 on the registration fee.  This is good through September.  However, there is one special expiring tomorrow August 31.  If you register by then you also get receive a complete set of replays from "True Scrap Young At Heart" valued at $97.  Here is the link for registration:
