Chocolate Chip Purse

Here's another purse, with a different style. I used Chocolate Chip paper with retired Designer Series paper and brown ric rac for the handles. Let me know if any of you have tried to make a purse or bag out of paper, and how it turned out.

Polka Dot Purse

I made this purse as a gift. I used some of my punches, a brad, and retired paper. I used velcro to keep the handle down. Inside the purse are four cards I made with the same color scheme as the purse. The purse is quite simple to make, it's just a matter of measuring and folding. The width and height of the purse just need to be as wide as the cards that go in it. Have fun with your creations!

October Projects

Here are the three fun projects we made at this month's workshop. We had such a great time! Thanks to all of you who came. If you missed it, don't worry. I'll do another workshop next month with the same or similar projects. I look forward to the upcoming holidays and hope you do, too. Let me know if I can help you with any of your holiday crafting needs. :-)

Top Note Bigz Die

Part of this card was made using the Big Shot. Can you tell which part? The colors are Certainly Celery and Chocolate Chip. I used the Canvas Background stamp and the Pocket Silhouettes. The Holiday Mini Catalog is out now. There are some really fun things in it. Check it out.

All Spruced Up

I'm still working on Christmas pages for this scrapbook. This page I used Riding Hood Red with the Fun & Fast Notes and Short & Sweet stamp sets. I also used the Window Punch and Mellow Moss ribbon(retired). I'll take a break from Christmas pages for my next post. Have a great stampin' day!

Snow Swirled

Here's another page a recently finished. I know it's a little early for Christmas projects, but that's the group of pictures I am on right now. The fun snowflakes on this page are from the SU stamp set Snow Swirled. It's a great set. Happy Stampin'!

Scallop Punch Daisy

I have a few pages to post that I have recently done. This is one of them, very simple. If you have any questions about it, let me know. Have a great scrapbookin' day!

All Through the Year (ret)
Paper: White, Perfect Plum, Pale Plum
Ink: Kiwi Kiss, Pretty in Pink, Versamark

I tried out this new stamp set and I used colors I haven't used before. I hope you like it. There are so many fun new stamp sets that just came out. Be sure to check out the new catalog/idea book. The Holiday-mini catalog will be available soon. There are some very cute holiday stamps in it. And the Big Shot die-cut machine is also in it. I'll post it when it comes out. Look for it October 1. Have a great day!
Card Recipe:

Just B Yourself

This page was quite easy, considering I already stamped these cute images a while ago and was just waiting for the right page to use them on. The color combo I used was Perfect Plum, Pale Plum, River Rock (retired), and white, of course. The stamp sets are Just B, Sweet Celebrations, Big Flowers, and All Through the Year (retired). The ribbon I used is not SU, just something I found in my ribbon box. Anyway, have a great week!

Tart & Tangy Summer Fun

I hope you all had a wonderful summer. School starts next week for us, so hopefully we'll be getting back into a regular rountine. Hopefully that means more time for me to stamp and scrapbook :-) I should also be able to plan some fun workshops. Let me know if you or someone you know would like to host a workshop. With the holidays coming, there will be a lot of fun projects to work on. Happy Stampin!

Priceless

These are more of the 3 1/2 x 3 1/2 cards I made using the same colors of ink and cardstock and the same 2 stamp sets. Then I added any accessories I had that matched. If you would like to make these cute cards or use this color combination, here is what you will need:

Paper: White, Riding Hood Red, Baja Breeze, Apricot Appeal
Ink: black, Baja Breeze, Apricot Appeal
Accessories: Hodgepodge Hardware, Window punch, Double-stitched ribbon, brads, circle tag, corner rounded punch, safety pin

New In Colors

I love this color combo! Isn't it fun?! I made these four cards with the same 3 colors of ink and paper (& white, of course) and 3 stamp sets. Then I added a few random accessories I had that matched. It was so simple that way. If you would like to make cards like these or try this color combo, here is what you will need:

Stamps: Simply Said, Wonderful Favorites, Sweet Celebrations
Paper: White, Pretty in Pink, Certainly Celery

Ink: Pretty in Pink, Certainly Celery, Summer Sun, Pacific Point

Accessories: Scallop Punch, Photo Corners punch, circle punch, corner punch, ribbon

August Swap Card

I made the first card, but then decided I liked the canvas background with it. So I made a second card and those at the swap got to choose which card they wanted to make. I used my new In Colors which are so fun and one of my favorite stamp sets, Tart & Tangy, which are both in the new catalog coming next Monday. I should have the new catalog posted then. Be sure to check it out and all the new, exciting products!

Paper: White, Pretty in Pink, Chocolate Chip
Ink: Pretty in Pink, Chocolate Chip
Accessories: 1 3/8 circle punch, brown rickrack (oops! I forgot to add some bling to the flowers and butterfly)
