This is part of the Gift Cards which I started to make today and of course, have only just finished them.  I am actually happy with the final result, considering I didn’t really know what I was going to end up with or how the end result would look!
Card 1 is below, while the 2nd card, finished project & supplies used are listed following the photos.
I hope you enjoy looking at them as much as I enjoyed making them!

G’day Stampers,

Being a couple of days since my last entry, thought I would share a small project I am currently working on.  This will not be finished ’til later on 2-nite!  I am yet to decide how & what I am going to make to store the cards.  Something simple & quick, as were the cards, but yet something which will suit the style of the cards!
I want to highlight the use of the great “Wheels” Stampin’ Up!® have!

G’Day Stampers,
I’ve just finished creating a set of 6, 5 x 5 Gift Cards and Wallet for a friend.  I’ve used all the Australian Current Stampin’ Up!® “In” Colours.  I then made envelopes to suit the size & to match the cards.
I got to use my new Butterfy Punch which is in the latest Stampin’ Up!® current Mini-Catalogue.
Don’t forget this Mini ends 31st March!
Wallet
Cards
Supplies –
Stamp Set – Great Friend
Ink – Riding Hood Red, Pink Pirouette, Baja Breeze
Cardstock – Pink Pirouette, Riding Hood Red, Tangerine Tango,  Kiwi Kiss,
Pacific Point, Baja Breeze, Chocolate Chip, Whisper White
DSP – Riding Hood Red, Chocolate Chip, So Saffron,
Baja Breeze, Kiwi Kiss, Pink Pirouette
Punches – Butterfly, Eyelet, Large Oval, Scallop Oval
Accessories – Snail Adhesive, Very Vanilla Grosgrain Ribbon,
Mini-Dots, Uni Ball Gel Pen
Non-SU – Rhinestones
Gosh, I hope I haven’t forgotten anything.
I created a Wallet specially to hold the cards, which closes of its own accord, so I didn’t need to use anything to hold it closed.
I typed Mary’s name on the pc & then punched it out using the Large Oval Punch 
Using the butterfly stamp from “Great Friend”, I’ve stamped the image onto the card, then again onto Whisper White, cut this image out & using mini-dots, adhereded to card.  You can’t see it in the pics – sri
Card & Matching Envelopes – Kiwi Kiss & Riding Hood Red
Cards & Matching Envelopes – Pacific Point & Tangerine Tango
Card & Envelopes – Baja Breeze & Pink Pirouette
Until next post
Enjoy!
  

Scrap Cardstock…

Published on by Vicky WrightLeave a comment
Hello Fellow Stampers,
I thought I would post a little ditty in ref to our bits & pieces of left over cardstock. 
I’ve decided to do a little project with my left over “stuff”, but more of that later.
Sample 1
Sample 2
Supplies –
Stamp Set – Eastern Blooms, Great Friend
Ink – Not Quite Navy
Card Stock – Not Quite Navy, Old Olive, Really Rust, Very Vanilla
Accessories – Anywhere Glue Stick, Heat Tool, Stampin Emboss Powder – White
How easy is this!  Doesn’t matter what size the little cards are, they always come up great!  In fact, the more varied the sizes, the better I like them!
No Very Vanilla Cardstock has been hurt in this project, only the coloured Cardstock – Earth Elements – and they were from my scraps.
I then used the Embossing Technique for the front.  Doesn’t require anything else. 
Find this Technique Here
I like to make a fresh batch – sounds like cooking.  Opps, I forgot, I don’t cook – of small gift cards every 2/3 weeks which I give to my customers along with their orders.  I try to cater for their tastes in colours, etc as not everyone likes the same thing! 
Not only that, I am totally out of my comfort zone by using the “Earth Elements” but I love the way they have come out!
One more thing, Stampin’ Emboss Powder would have to be the greatest powder I have ever used!  It is so fine & always comes out so lovely!  I love watching the heat changing the texture!
Tip – As long as I am able to punch the smallest circle from cardstock/DSP, I NEVER toss any of it out.
Make sure you check back in a couple of days to view my little/big project!
Until tmw, have a great night
Vicky
