Gift Card Holder…

Inside…

I found this tutorial for a Gift Card Holder over at Created by You, which is owned by the very talented Sharon Field.  It looked so interesting & lovely that I thought I would give it a go.  I’ve used all my new products from SAB.

Of course, I adjusted mine a little so that it could fit our standard envelopes in Australia.  since creating this one, I’ve played around with it a bit & did a couple of different things to it, but more about that in the next couple days.

I wanted to use the matching ribbons that come in SAB but didn’t look any good on the Lucky Limeade, so back to the drawing board for me.

Supplies –
Stamp Set – Fresh Vintage, Elementary Elegance
Ink – Calyspo Coral, Soft Suede
Cardstock – Pool Party, Lucky Limeade, Very Vanilla
Embossing Folder – Square Lattice
Dies – Top Note
Ribbon – 3/8″ Ruffled – Pool Party
DSP – Everyday Enchantment

Until next time, Happy Stampin!

Sc 021/11…

Merry Christmas Eveyone!!!!!  Have a great day with your family & friends!

This week’s challenge over at Sunny Challenges & Creations is one which I am sure will appeal to everyone.  Anything BUT Christmas.  Yep, you have a free reign!  Be sure to check out what Gwen & Kris have created.

For my sample, I decided to create a Free Standing Double Photo Frame  as a small Chrissie Pressie for my Aunt.

With having Christmas at my cousins, I thought it be a great idea to create this so that she could put a couple of photos of her great-granddaughter in it.  Ally is only 2 years of age & it is her grandparents we are having lunch with.

This idea has been forming in my mind for a couple of weeks now, & to see it come to life is something else.  I am really happy with the final result.  Mind you, so many ideas have popped into my head about what I will do for my next one.
Once I had assembled the inside of the frame, I then decided to make the front into a card – Jill won’t be expecting the inside!  She will only think it is just another card!

For the card front, I wanted to make it all “girly girly” while not being too bright!  I think I have pulled it off!

Mind you, it is still sitting on the kitchen cupboard waiting to be wrapped.  I also created a matching envelope & matching Tissue Paper to wrap the envelope – sorry no photos as I did that last night after I had taken all the photos.

Supplies –
Stamp Set –  Under the Big Top
Ink – Early Expresso
Cardstock – Early Expresso, Wild Wasabi, Whisper White, Pink Pirouette, Window Sheet
DSP – Just Add Cake
Dies – Top Note
Ribbon – 3/8″ Taffeta – Pretty in Pink
Punches – Scallop Trim Border
SU Markers – Early Expresso, Basic Gray, So Saffron, Baja Breeze, Pretty in Pink, Pink Pirouette
Accessories – Rhinestones, Crystal Brad, Sticky Strip, Snail Adhesive, Multipurpose Glue, SU Sponge Dauber, 2-Way Glue Pen, Dazzling Diamonds, Stampin’ Dimensionals, Blender Pen, Big Shot
Non-SU – 3mm Cardboard
Now head over to Sunny Challenges & Creations & add your creation to Mr Linky.
Merry Christmas!

Thank You Box…

This box was created as part of the current Sunny Challenges & Creations – SC020/11 challenge.  The challenge is to share something Chrissy – 3-D, Gifts, Cards, Scrapbooking or in fact, anything you like with a Christmas Theme.

I also created it for my cousin who took me to the ballet last week to see “Swan Lake“.  Absolutely fantastic.  Those dancers are so very talented, fit & brilliant!

The best part is that one of the dancers was approached by the director to perform for the Qld Ballet Company.  His mum is over the moon!!!!!  His older brother & younger sister are both dancers as well.
After creating my box, I decorated it with the DSP – Letters to Santa, added a sentiment & tied a ribbon around the top to keep it closed.  I filled the box with yummy yummy chocolates….
Supplies –
Stamp Set – Short & Sweet
Ink – Chocolate Chip
Cardstock – Riding Hood Red, Old Olive, Whisper White

I created this little bag sometime ago – original may be found in this post  It is one that Frenchie did a video for & have always kept it in the back of my mind wanting to use it again. 
This was the perfect opportunity for the little bag… 
I made 2 of each colour & filled them with yummy chocolates for the crew at the Caloundra Community Centre.  No-one was around Friday when I dropped them in, so I hope they find them & enjoy the chocolates.
