Six Sided Notebook!

Good morning!

I have my DT project for our new challenge at CAS - Colours and Sketches for you today...

I am starting to make more non card items for my stall as I want to offer a bit more to my customers, so this is an altered notebook. I've used Polka Dot Parade DSP, some Wild Wasabi DSP from the Subtles paper stack, and the Six Sided Sampler Bundle to create this slightly more male style notebook.

Here are the requirements of our challenge for this week...

As it is the 5th week of the month we have a double challenge of a colour and sketch!

So come along and give it a go...we'd love to see what you come up with!

Cheers!

Good morning! 

Here is one of the cards I made at the crafty afty(noon) at Jen's yesterday...

This one is made using the fab and fun Happy Hour stamp set. I coloured it using my Stampin' Write markers to blend in the colours before stamping to create a 'cocktail' effect.

I scored a line for a 'shelf' using my Simply Scored tool and used Polka Dot Parade for the background paper. 

Supplies

Cardstock - Basic Gray, Whisper White

Designer Series Paper - Polka Dot Parade

Stamps - Happy Hour, Oh, Hello

Ink - Tempting Turquoise, Melon Mambo, Daffodil Delight, Basic Gray

Other - Simply Scored

Bright Blossoms!

Good morning! 

How was your weekend? I had a very productive day yesterday mowing lawns, weeding, and planting some salad seeds, re-potting some seedlings and planting out our runner beans and some pea and dwarf bean seeds! Hopefully we shall reap plenty again this year!

After all that hard work in the garden, I was inspired to make a pretty summery, flowery card...

I stamped the Bright Blossoms set in Real Red, Old Olive and Tempting Turquoise. I used my trusty Stamp-a-Majig for perfect placement of these lovely stamps. It really does make life so much easier and I find it works brilliantly with any brand of wood or clear mount stamps!

The paper is from the fab Polka Dot Parade DSP pack and I finished with sentiments from the Tiny Tags set.

Cardstock - Whisper White, Old Olive

Stamps - Bright Blossoms, Tiny Tags

Ink - Real Red, Old Olive and Tempting Turquoise

A Polka Dot Dress!

Hello!

If you follow me regularly, you will probably know that I love the All Dressed Up Bundle, and I have another card here using just the Framelits....

After I had punched the edge of the Baja Breeze Striped paper, I needed to trim the long edge to make it central, and it occurred to me that the strip would make a cute belt. Not only that, but I also rolled the last bit to make the cute flower!

Doesn't it look pretty? I really do think Polka Dots suit these little dresses so beautifully! 

Supplies

Cardstock - Crumb Cake

Designer Series Paper - Polka Dot Parade, Subtles

Ink - Baja Breeze

Punches/Dies - All Dressed Up Framelits, Elegant Label, Scallop Trim Border

Sentiment - All Dressed Up

Ribbon - Stitched Grossgrain
