file box cards

I went up to my craft room today and I thought yeh what new set out of the mini shall I use. I picked Eastern Blooms. As I started having a play around I remembered that I hadn't made any cards to go in my little file box, So I ended up doing three so they fit in nicely. The cards are only 3"by 3 3/4". It's such a cute little set, I just have to make some envelopes. Another gift ready for Christmas. The DSP is out of fall flowers set and the card I used is old olive, really rust and whisper white. Eastern blooms flower stamped in white craft ink and the saying at the bottom out of short and sweet stamped in really rust ink. I used dimensionals to paper toll out the flowers. And to finish it off old olive ribbon.

Sending Happy Thoughts

These simply sent kits are great, I am so glad I brought one. Its been great to get a bit of stamping done while I've been away. These cards I have enjoyed making love the stamps and love the colours. I've only used the kit, but I've added different ribbon and brads and used my mat pack. If you click on the picture it will give you a close up look. I'm on my way home tomorrow, can't wait to see my family and I can't wait to use my new stamps from the new mini, they are all mounted and ready to to be used. So give me till Sunday and I will do a new post.

SIMPLY SENT

It feels ages since i posted. I'm down in Christchurch looking after my dad after his surgery and I thought I'd take a simply sent kit with me, I picked sending happy thoughts and brought some old olive and pumpkin pie ribbon, extra card and some old olive brads. I got to have a wee play while dad was resting I started by making a card the same as in the catalogue but with a few extra layers.I paper tolled the top of the flower and added a knot to the ribbon. Sorry the photo isn't the best. Then off down the road to a friends to use their internet.(thanks Simon). I have a few other different cards to post using this kit but have made them all different. So check back soon.

Double pocket bag

I had all my stamp club girls over last night and this is what we made. It was great getting together stamping and watching the fireworks out the window( I live near the park). Sorry I took the link off for the tutorial. The link wouldn't work.

A LITTLE FILE BOX

Just a quick post tonight, I just finished making this little file box. I ran out of time to finish the cards to go inside but I will try to get them done in the weekend. It been a very exciting day today. The lovely courier came today with a wee box full of things from the new summer mini. All the demonstrators get to do a pre order on the all the new things in the new mini. And I wasted no time in putting in my order.lol. I would have had my cards finished if I didn't have all my new stamps to polyurethane. I can't wait to use them!!!!!!.

One of a kind

Not the best picture sorry, bad lighting at night. Anyway this is a card I made today for a friend of mine. As you can see I used one of a kind(out of the spring mini). And I used very vanilla and creamy caramel card stock, some outlaw DSP and a little bit of theater ribbon out of the ribbon originals also a few brads. Just to be different instead of an envelope I made a little box. Hope she likes it.
