Colour - Day 4

Hello. Today's project is a little gift to give to away.

Maybe a gift to thank the host or hostess for holding a workshop or 

class maybe. I used Beauty Abounds stamp set for this project. 

For more information, please click HERE

 The box is one of the mini pizza boxes from Stampin' Up! A pack of 8 little boxes which are ideal for little notelets or thank you cards.

I added Gorgeous Grape and Lemon Lime Twist card stock over the top and sides of the box.

The little butterflies were diecut using a die from the Butterfly Beauty Thinlits which 

coordinate with the stamp set

I made 4 little cards, 8.5 cm square from Whisper White card stock and put them 

with the little 3" square envelopes. Each card had a square of DSP Botanical Butterfly Designer Series Papers which I got for FREE when I placed and order of £45.

The papers have a colourful pattern on one side and different black and white prints on the reverse. 

                  Using the stamp set, I added some backgrounds and fussy cut some butterflies                             from one of the sheets of DSP.

A little message stamped onto the front to complete this.

A simple tag with For You attached to the ribbon completes this little set.

Thank you for stopping by today.

Colour - Day 3

This is another card I made for a class this weekend, a double Z fold , I believe it's called.

I used the Beauty Abounds stamp set and for more information, please

I used Gorgeous Grape Whisper White and a small strip of Lemon Lime Twist 

cardstock and ink pads. 

Again some of the FREE designer series papers from the Saleabration brochure.

You get to choose 1 FREE item, stamps, dies, punches or papers of your choice..... 

for placing an order of only £45

I stamped the flourish from Beauty Abounds stamp set over the White mat in 

Lemon Lime Twist ink. I added the small strip of Lemon Lime Twist cardstock and Rhinestones to complete.

 Then randomly stamped the different little butterflies over the piece too.

I stamped a few more and fussy cut them out then added them to the Lemon Lime Twist strip of card before adding the lovely messages. 

The messages were punched out using the 1 3/4" and 2" circle punches.

Colour Day 2

Today's card is one of three that I made for a class on this weekend.

 I used Beauty Abounds stamp set and some of the beautiful FREE 

Saleabration Designer Series Papers.

 I have only used Whisper White cardstock with the DSP. 

For more information on the Beauty Abounds stamp set, please click HERE 

A really lovely set of stamps. One of the first sets in the new brochure that I ordered.

  

Punches were the tools of choice on this one.  1 1/2", 1 3/4" and 2" Circle punches 

and a discontinued corner rounder punch.

I fixed the strip of DSP to the card base and after dipping the edges of the mat onto the 

Gorgeous Grape ink pad. I love the way that the ink adds dimension to the mat.

I did the same to the mat and the circle for the message on the inside of the card too.

Another piece of DSP was used for the 2" circle behind the message on the front.

Weekly Inspiration - Colours

Colour Day 1

Hello, 

this week I am working with colour. Well, it's supposed to be 1 main colour but I cant decide!

So! Here's what I have made!

Day 1 Basic Gray

I have used Beauty Abounds stamp set which is in the new Seasonal Brochure. 

To coordinate with the stamp set are athe amazing Butterfly Beauty Thinlits.

This amazing set has 20 individual dies!

For more information on the stamp set and Thinlit dies, please click HERE

The Butterfly die is only 1 very large die but has another die which fits over it to add

more detail and/or another colour. 

A friend is someone who chooses you... 

...out of a whole world of people.

Perfect.
