Congrats Pocket Card

Here's one of the cards we made at stamp club on Tuesday. It uses the Delicate Dots Designer Series paper pack (one of the Sale-A-Bration items available through this month), Polka Dot Punches and Congrats stamp sets (another couple Sale-A-Bration item) and a piece of Certainly Celery poly-twill ribbon (again a Sale-A-Bration item). Of course, it also uses the Scallop Circle punch and a Pewter Jumbo eyelet to finish it all off.

To make this card (or another one using Double-sided paper), cut your paper to 4" x 11". Score along the 11" side at 1-1/4" and 5-1/2". Punch the corners using a corner-rounder punch. Fold the paper in half and fold the 1-1/4 flap down. Wrap the ribbon around the entire piece (to keep the pocket closed) and adhere with adhesive. Stamp the scallop image onto Whisper White card stock and punch out using the Scallop Circle punch. Punch a scallop circle from Certainy Celery card stock too. Using a Crop-a-Dile tool, set the jumbo eyelet onto the Whisper White scallop. Off-set the placement of the two scallops using Stampin' Dimensionals, and then adhere the scallops over the ribbon with adhesive.

The insert piece is cut from So Saffron card stock cut to 3-3/4" x 5-1/4". Corner round the top edges. Stamp the flower image from Polka Dot Punches with So Saffron ink randomly on one side. Stamp Congratulations on the top in Basic Black ink and the "on the birth of your beautiful baby!" image just a little lower. That's it! This idea works great for many different cards.

2011 Desktop Calendar

This month in my stamp club meetings, I had the gals make these desktop calendars. It was a big hit. The image to the left of the calendar can be changed according to the season (winter, spring, summer & fall) by removing the image and placing one of the other 3 onto the velcro dot (attached behind the image). The corresponding side of the velcro dot is placed on the back side of the images. I used the stamp set A Flower for all Seasons , #111592, $14.95. And, the extra images are stored inside in a small cellophane bag. The calendar base takes only 1 sheet of card stock to make, measuring 9" x 6-1/2". With simple scoring and folding, it goes together very quickly. Another demonstrator had shared the calendar file that is printed onto printer paper and cut to size. All fit into the 1/2" library clip from the clips assortment (#112580; $6.95). There are 8 of them included in the package along with a couple of other style of paper clips. While they are still ...
