This past fall I did my first round of Big Shot classes. They consist of 4 classes - one a month. The beauty of these classes is, you can start them at any time! If you start with class #3, then you'll take #4, then #1 & 2. The objective for completing the classes is that you are more comfortable with the Big Shot machine and have had a chance to most of the different types of dies.
Last week I started my second round of classes for the Big Shot. I actually had one gal sign up to take all four classes again! The projects will be different each round due to new products and seasonal projects.
Class #1 will always focus on the Top Note and Scallop Envelope dies. These are fabulous dies and have a variety of uses that make them a must have!
Isn't this gorgeous? We cut two Top Note Dies and attached them to a mini paper bag. The Wide Oval punch was used to punch out handles. The Heart image from the FREE Sale-A-Bration "Polka Dot Punches" set was stamped and punched with the new Full Heart punch. The greeting is from the FREE "Yummy" Sale-A-Bration stamp set. The ribbon is the new Organza Ribbon! (Colors are Whisper White and Sahara Sand on all samples).
This is an envelope pouch with 3 Scalloped Envelopes/Gift Cards. Just cut out your 3 scallop envelopes with the Big Shot using Designer Paper (be sure to use the crease pad with this die). The DSP is the super cute Delicate Dots, FREEif you place a $50 order during Sale-A-Bration (Feb 1-Mar 31). Each mini envelope and a gift enclosure card in them. The pouch is made from a medium envelope sealed and cut in half. The ribbon is also a FREE Sale-a-Bration choice!
I've been wanting to use this bird die as "Love Birds" and when I saw a card on Kay's blog (a fellow demonstrator) - I was inspired. Again I used the Organza Ribbon (love, love, love this ribbon)! Plus a couple of punches: Heart to Heart and the new Eyelet Border. The birds are from the Birds and Blooms Sizzlet 4 pack. This die comes with the Big Shot starter kit or can be purchased separately. The greeting on this card is from the FREE Sale-A-Bration stamp set "Congrats".
Join me at my next Big Shot class on March 18th. Details and fee schedule can be found here. You do not have to be a club member to attend this class.
