Mini Easel Notepad

Another class project, an Easel Notepad complete with it's own gift bag.

 

The elements on the front of the Kraft flower bag are all from the Mini Album Kit that you will find in the Spring/Summer Catalogue.  The bag is designed to become a "Page" in the album but I chose it to be a bag to hold my desktop Easel Notepad. 

 

This is such a cute kit containing everything to create a gorgeous mini album, including covers, inside pages, book rings, doilies, clips and die cut labels, shapes and borders.  If you scroll down you can get a look at the contents.  Please note that the gold butterflies are not included, I punched these with the Bitty Butterfly punch using the Gold foil paper, also in the Spring/Summer Catalogue.

 

I am constantly making little notes in the kitchen and instead of having a non attractive post it note pad on the side or mini notepad I decided to make something a little more attractive!  It's decoration is simple but could be dressed up a little more if you prefer.  This would make a really nice gift too!

 

The flower is from "Mixed Bunch" stamps, punched out with the co-ordinating "Blossom Punch".

 

We are sadly waving goodbye to the Ruffle Stretch Trim ribbon range, I will miss it lots but we will be saying hello to the Decorative Dots embossing folder which made an appearance during Sale-a-bration.



If you would like to create some projects just like these, then why not let me to run a private class in your home or in mine!!  All you need is a minimum of 6 people, tea/coffee and biscuits, I will do the rest!  Please get in touch for more details.

Tag Topper Punch Treat Wrap

I love making little treat packaging, I think it's so nice to give sweet treats for no reason at all and the cost is usually pence!

 

I do spend some time in the sweet aisle at the Supermarket searching for chocolates that are individually packaged.

 

Here I used the Scallop Tag Topper punch to create my treat wrap and I designed it to give with the card I showed you a couple of days ago.

 

 

I began with a strip of Primrose Petals cardstock cut at just under 2" width to fit inside the Scallop Tag Topper Punch, punched it at either end then ran my bone folder along the centre to stop it creasing when I looped it.

 

I used the same stamps as previously, Papaya Collage for the label and butterfly image and layered it to the front, this time I added a Window Frame from the framelits set and daubed around the edge to give it some depth.

 

Inside I popped a chocolate bunny attaching with a Glue Dot so that it didn't get lost.

and here are the final projects together, would make a lovely gift and very inexpensive at that.

Envelope Punch Board Pocket Card

I will never get tired of the Envelope Punch Board, it is just such an amazing tool to own and so very versatile.  Here I've used it to create this pocket card.

Following on from yesterday's card, this was made at the same class so the colours and stamps are the same, here just an extra addition, "Around Array", a cute little set with small scallop circle images and yes, you guessed it, there's a matching punch to make life easy for you!

Here's how the card opens and closes, the tabs are created using the Envelope Punch Board and they make the closure by slotting inside each other.

And finally a close up of the front.

If you'd like to learn more about the Envelope Punch Board, why not host a party or book a private class in your home, min 6 people required.  Call me on 07717 068909 or email me at stampinkerry@aol.com for more information.
