Welcome to our new neighbours!

Card: tempting turquoise, real red, whisper white
DSP: play date DSP
Ink: tempting turquoise, real red
Stamp set(s): just believe, mixed bunch, elementary elegance
Accessories: brayer, temp twine, blossom punch, scallop border punch, pearls

Yesterday, I made up a cute box bag and filled it with Easter eggs for our new neighbours who have just moved in behind us.  I was thinking about adding some baking, but time got away with me - the story of my life right now...!  But it was special to meet our new neighbours and offer them a "welcome to the neighbourhood" gift.

I have a number of the cute 'Hello' cards I had thought I would use as my swaps at Stamp Camp last month but didn't, so I dug up some co-ordinating DSP to make a box bag and I think they work really well together.  Again, my new blossom punch worked a treat to add an embellishment to the bag.  The neighbours were appreciative of the gift and hope they enjoyed the Easter eggs!

A wee card to say hello

Card: tempting turquoise, real red, whisper white
Ink: tempting turquoise, real red
Stamp set(s): just believe, elementary elegance
Accessories: beautiful wings embosslit, big shot, pearl, brayer

This project was going to be my swap for Stamp Camp a few weeks ago, but I decided to do something different. It's a 3" card, which is my new favourite size. I have brayered the real red on whisper white, stamped the images, and added the butterflies with a pearl. It's a simple card, but I love the detail and brayering! The pearl gives it a little bit of elegance!

Ink: rich razzleberry, wisteria wonder

Stamp set(s): elementary elegance stamp set (SAB), fast flowers wheel

A very quick "hello" card that I decided to make for a friend "just 'cos"! I've used a fantastic stamp set from the current Sale-a-Bration collection. If you spend $120, you can get yours for free! I've also used Stampin' Up! square envelope that fits a cute small card like this one.
