Create a wonderful Gift

Here is a cute project to create for a wonderful gift. This includes a box and a set of 8 cards (2 designs, 4 each).

You can easily change the DS paper to make a completely different looking set of cards! I used Tea Party DS Paper and the Matchbox messages stamp set for this sample.

More Monograms

I've been playing around with my Just Rite Stamper again! This is so easy to use to make great monogramed items. This is a cute little "purse" I've made before, but added the "From the Desk of" monogram. I used the Large Round Monogramed stamper and added "From the Desk Of" That set also has From the Kitchen of and From the Library of. I used circle punches and my nestabilites scallop dies as well. The Backround was embossed with my Cuttlebug.

Monogramed Purses

My friend Judy and I do craft shows and special orders. Here are some monogramed purses we're doing for a special order. We'll probably do some for our fall craft shows as well. Aren't they just cute? We used our cuttlebug embossing folders to emboss the color parts. There is a set of 5 matching notecards and envelopes inside.

(If you notice the brad in the center of the flower, it's the new rhinestone circle brads from Stampin' Up! They will be available in the new catalog beginning July 1.)

Another Purse!

I think I'm addicted to making these now. The second one went MUCH faster than the first. I think I have this figured out now. If you're interested in making these, email me for the directions.

Too Darn CUTE!

So, since my kids are all sick today, I was off to Walgreens to stock up on medicine. I was walking through the magazine section when I spotted this magazine called Stamp It! It's the Spring 2007 issue. I started looking and saw this adorable purse box with matching notecards. I just had to buy the magazine and come home and make it. Mine is a little different, but close. I used the Paisley stamp from the Polka Dots & Paisley stamp set with Versamark ink on the Pretty in pink cardstock. Then I stamped the K from my Headline alphabet set and framed the letter with the stamp from Lable Classics. I just think this is cute. The purse easily holds 6 note cards and 6 envelopes!
