Sparkle of the Season Thanksgiving Card
I recently offered a Fall/Thanksgiving Step-it Up Class. Each participant made a basic/simple fall themed card and then took the same layout and "stepped-it" up.

Open Fold Masculine Card
I'm calling this an open fold card because I'm not really sure what to call it. This card wasn't difficult to make, just a lot of pieces-parts to put together. I needed a masculine encouragement card so I used the Sailing Home and A Good Man stamp sets. Here's the outside of the card. The…
