Pals Blog Hop - "Layer It Up"!

Welcome to the Pals’ Blog Hop! We’re so glad you’re here because we made some great projects for “Layer It Up”  – showcasing our favorite Designer Series Paper and embellishments.  You may be starting the hop here or coming from a previous Pal’s blog. Either way, you’ve come to the right place. You’ll find the full line-up below to help you move, or “hop” along from Pal to Pal.

I have seen so many box cards from fellow demonstrators and I finally made one myself!  I thought this would be the perfect card for my little nieces and nephew - a little surprise on the inside.

What should I put inside - treats? Gift Card?  The possibilities are endless:)

More inspiration awaits! Use the Blog Hop Line-up below to visit the rest of this month’s Design Team. My fellow Pals are excited to show you what they’ve created! Don’t forget to show us some love by commenting on our creations. Mark your calendars for Wednesday, December 11th, for our Retirement Fun Fold Party when our Design Team showcase projects using retiring products from the Holiday Catalog with a fun fold card. Don’t miss the fun!

Love this project!

I watched a video posted by fellow Stampin’ Up! Demonstrator, Sam Hammond Donald, and I have been HOOKED! It’s a super easy project and would make a great gift for you or someone special.

The little box holds 5 Christmas cards that were made using the note cards & envelopes.  With a little re-calculation, the box can be made a little bigger to accommodate more note cards.

High Tide it's Friday!!

I apologize for the short post, but I am catching up on my sleep - watched the Washington Nationals WIN THE WORLD SERIES!!
I thought I would take a little break from Holiday cards and play around with my aqua painter and ink.  The card is simple - using my High Tide photopolymer stamp set.  It is also relatively flat - not quite a one layer card, but pretty close.

a perfect little gift for someone special....or for you!

I have been searching hi and low for a box to hold 4 note cards and envelopes.  I have a collection of prototypes in my craft room that would make your head spin.   

The pouch will hold 4 note cards and envelopes easily - even cards with embellishments! The sentiment on the outside of the card is from To Every Season - I needed something small and this fit the bill.

The Snowman Season Photopolymer Stamp Set has the cutest sentiments.

Even though I used the gorgeous Real Red ribbon to tie the pouch, I added a tiny Velcro spot so that the lid closed securely.

Mail A Card Monday

The card I am offering today is a simple “thinking of you” card.

The To Every Season Bundle allows so many different options -it is a stamp set that every stamper should have in their stash. This Bundle can be yours for only $36!

The fun part about this card was the gold flicking that I did using some shimmer paint and the aqua painter.

No card is complete without adding an envelope liner!
