Here's a couple of cards that we made at convention using the new stamp set called "Your Presents"  There's boxes, bows and an ornament in the set.  It'll be great for anytime that you give someone a present.  We made the cards and decorated the envelopes.

 

For this card we made the envelope using the new envelope paper.  I'm trying to get into the habit of always decorating the envelopes. It just makes the card a little more special.

Fun at Convention

Here's a sneak peek at a card made with a stamp set out of the new Holiday catalog.  This is the cutest card ever.  There's a lot of vintage 1940's stuff in the catalog.  You'll love it.  You should be getting you catalog sometime in August.  If you don't just let me know and I'll get one for you. 

 

Baker’s Box Thinlits Dies by Stampin’ Up!

Here's a cute Christmas card that was inspired by the card on the bottom of page 35 in the annual catalog.  The background was embossed using the new Bohemian folder.  The little angel was made using the bow tie punch.  The snowflakes are from the perpetual calendar stamp set.  Don't have my catalog right here so I can't look up the name of the set.  The sequin trim adds just the right amount of bling.  I really like this card.  It might show up again at a Christmas stamp a stack.

 

Well, I really goofed up.  On my calendar is says that my Paper Pumpkin Party is July 16th.  But I set up a Facebook event for July 15th.  So since it's on Facebook for the 15th that's when it'll be.

So what is Paper Pumpkin you ask?  Well, it's a monthly craft party in a box.  If you subscribe to Paper Pumpkin you'll receive a bright red box (like the one's in the picture) and inside the box is a paper crafting project.  It might be cards, home décor, gift packaging or something else.  It's always a paper project and it includes everything you need to put the kit together. 

So are you interested?  Come to the Paper Palace (my craft studio) on July 15th and check it out.  You'll get to make some projects of your choice and see what it's all about. 

 

 

So come to the Paper Palace on Weds, July 15th from 6:00 - 9:00 and have some fun.
