Vintage Vogue and Love Letter Paper

Today's project has been inspired by Amanda Bates at The Craft Spa.  The card is very similar to the beautiful card we made last Saturday at the team meeting but uses different papers and a different stamp - in fact it's totally different!

I was lucky enough to win the Lover Letter papers in the raffle!  The second time I've won the raffle - and I've only been to the team meeting twice so pretty good going.

The stamps are from the Vintage Vogue set - my favourite at the moment - and the button in the centre of the flower was also part of my raffle prize.

The flap on the card opens to reveal a small bag - perfect for a little present or maybe some matching notelets.

SU! Supplies used:

Card Stock: Very Vanilla, Cherry Cobbler
Ink: Real Red
Designer Series Paper: Love Letter
Stamp Set: Vintage Vogue
Designer Buttons

I'm Back!

I'm back at my desk and raring to go after a trip down south to see my family and friends.

When I got back I realised I hadn't thought about the swaps for today's team meeting so set to work.  The card has been stamped with images from one of the SAB sets (Punch Bunch) and opens to reveal a bar of chocolate for Easter ...

If you like this stamp set, just spend £45 (excl p&p) on anything in the current catalogue before the end of February and it could be yours.

The SU! supplies used in the card are:

Card: Very Vanilla
DSP: Nursery Suite Speciality Paper
Stamp set: Punch Bunch SAB set
Ink: Blushing Bride and Pear Pizzazz
Ribbon: 5/8" Grossgrain (Pretty in Pink)

Birthday Wishes

Today's card is a birthday card which I've submitted to the mojo-monday-175 challenge.  I've gone back to the Vintage Vogue set for the foliage - I just love that set!  I also love the bird from the Punch Potpourri set and the matching punch.  I seem to be using them on nearly every project I do at the moment.

The SU! supplies used are:

Cardstock

Designer Series Paper Patterns Stack (Brights)

Stamp sets: Punch Potpourri (Level 1 Hostess Set),  Vintage Vogue & a Sale-A-Bration Set (So Happy For You)

Ink: Old Olive

Satin Ribbon 5/8" (Whisper White)

Punch: Two step bird punch

Fun & Fast Notes

Today's cards are all made from one stamp set called "Fun and Fast Notes".  It's a perfect set to have as it comprises 8 different stamps covering a variety of occasions.

I've used 5 of the 8 stamps to make these very quick and easy cards, using white card and small pieces of the Designer Series Paper Patterns Stack in a variety of colours.  All the images have been stamped in black and coloured in using marker pens or watercoloured using a water brush and ink from the ink pads.

This is the perfect stamp set to have to cover those last minute cards which we all need when we've forgotten a birthday, anniversary or just want to say 'hi' or 'thank you'.

Stamps: Fun & Fast Notes (113500)
Papers: Designer Series Paper Patterns Stack (Brights) (117155)

Thank You

Today's card is another "thank you" card but very different to the last one.  I've used the same "thanks" stamp but this time the main feature of the card is the pocket which opens and has a note card inside which you can write a personal message on.  The flap of the pocket is tucked behind the flower to hold it in place.
