A Note to Say....

I've just completed a set of 4 Thank You Cards - very easy, basic but a better look than just a plain piece of paper.  Have a look yourselves & see what you think!

Supplies Used -

Stamp Set - Great Friend

Card Stock - Whisper White

DSP - Urban Garden, Urban Oasis

Ink - Pink Pirouette

Accessories - Snail Adhesive

Non-SU - Rhinestones

I love black & pink together, so I gathered my little bits & pieces of cardstock & DSP to make these notes.  What better way to use your small pieces of scrap? 

The "A Note to Say "Thank You" has been typed on the pc & printed.

Until next time, Enjoy

Challenge # 51

The challenge for the week is using Brads on your Cards, Scrapbooking or 3-D Projects.

I've just realised that the top of the box I did for the Stamp Club will be ok for this week's challenge from Late Night Stampers.  Very easy & simple.  It would also made a great easy 5 minute card.

Please see post below for more details

Until tmw

Stamp Club Project - January...

Good Afternoon Friends,

I have been working on a project for January's Stamp Club. 

Supplies -

Stamp Set - 5th Avenue

Cardstock - Baja Breeze, Kiwi Kiss, Going Gray, Whisper White, Not Quite Navy

DSP - Urban Oasis

Accents & Elements - Flower Fusion - Olid Olive

Brads - Earth Elements - Not Quite Navy

Ribbons - Grosgrain - Olive Green, Not Quite Navy

Punches - Scallop Oval, Oval

Accessories - Sticky Strip, Snail Adhesive

Bottom has been made using the bottom of a Origami Box, except with a lid, I wanted to be able to open it from the top and not have to untie ribbons, so this is what I come up with.

Lid Open

I then proceeded to make matching Note Cards & Envelopes.  I've left the cards blank on purpose as this way they are able to be used for any occasion.  The envelopes I made from Photo-Copy Paper.  I've then stamp the corner of the envelopes using 5th Avenue stamp set.

Note Cards & Envelopes

This project is also available via e-mail & post.  Please contact me for emailing or posting.

It will include all you require to complete the project, excluding stamps, ink, & adhesives.

If you would like to attend, please email & let me know so that I am aware of numbers.

Until tmw when another card or project will be posted.

Crazy4Challenges - # C4C17

Good Morning All,

Well, I have done it again - another challenge!  It is not like I have nothing better to do!  Oh wait!  I don't, as I am in Brissie, but hopefully not for much longer.

Sketch # 13

My Card

Supplies -

Cardstock - Whisper White, Basic Black

Stamp Set - Oval All - Retired

DSP - Urban Oasis

Accessories - Pretties Kit - Pearl & Flower, Sanil Adhesive

Punches - Scallop Oval - Retired, Small Oval, 3/4" Circle

I've embossed the white with my Cuttlebug, which gives it a bit of a different look.  Thought about introducing red into the scheme of things, but kept to the basic black & white!

I am really forcing myself to start using the DSP, but they are just so lovely that I don't want to "hurt" them!

Until next time - Enjoy
