A Little Gift of Cards ...

I am sharing a project with you today that a learnt how to make at a Stamp Camp that I attended last September.   I have remade the project using some of the latest stamps and framelits, it is a card holder for 4 cards made using the Whisper White Note Cards and Envelopes.

Does it look familiar, it should I cased myself from a card I recently posted here.

The stamp sets used on my project are Writing Notes, Timeless Textures, Grateful Bunch, Crazy About You, And Many More and Picture Perfect.  Colour scheme of Tip Top Taupe, Whisper White and Rose Red.  The flowers were cut from Rose Red patterned paper from the Love Bossoms Designer Series Paper Stack using the Botanical Builder Framelits.

Create the folder front and before you adhere it down make sure that you have put your ribbon around the cover so that you can tie a bow on the side to keep it closed.  I used about 26" of ribbon, this allows you to tie the bow easily.

To create the cover just score a piece of A4 cardstock in half portrait and then in half landscape.  Fold and burnish all the score lines.  Using your Stampin' Trimmer cut on the diagonal  on two sides from the centre score line to the edge of the middle score line to create the pockets for the card.  There is no adhesive required, it just folds up into a little booklet.

I made the 4 cards all the same, just changing up the sentiment to Thanks, Just A Note, Celebrate and Happy Birthday.  I thought that this would cover a lot of occasions where these cute little cards would be appropriate.

This project was actually quite quick to make as I made the cards all the same just changing the sentiment.  Also Stampin' Up make it so easy with the Note Cards and Envelopes already made for us.

Thank you for visiting.

A Little Gift of Cards ...

Special Friend...

I confess, I did not get around to sending out Christmas Cards this year and I really, really, really should have sent one to a very good friend who lives on the other side of Australia.

So I decided to make her a very special card for a special friend.

For the background I stamped the Writing Notes stamp in Soft Sky ink onto Whisper White cardstock.  I then stamped some of the images from the Timeless Textures stamp set with Crumb Cake and Tip Top Taupe, first, second and third generation stamping to get the various shades of the images.  The butterfly is from the Grateful Bunch stamped in Tip Top Taupe.   The small splatter images is from the Timeless Textures stamp set which was stamped with Rose Red ink.

The other embellishments include Metal Rimmed Pearls which are part of the Weekly Deals which you can find here.  Just click on the Shop Now tab.  The flower is made using the Botanical Builder Framelits and Designer Series Paper from the Love Blossoms Paper Stack.  The leaves were from the same Framelits set, die cut in Whisper White with Tip Top Taupe sponged on the edges.  I have added a small silver doily from the Metallic Foil Doilies pack and also I cut down one of the White Lace Doilies which I slipped under the Sahara Sand Lace Trim.  Silver Metallic Thread was layered under the flower which was finished with a Crumb Cake Candy Dot added to the flower centre.

Thank you for visiting.
