Bon Voyage!

As promised on Friday here is the project I made my upline Michelle Last to wish her bon voyage before she left for the fabulous incentive trip she earned from Stampin' Up during their 25th anniversary year! As this is such an amazing trip I thought she deserved a smart "suitcase".

I used the faux leather embossing technique for the outside and made the suitcase handle using the scallop tag topper punch. I couldn't resist adding some ribbon to the handle (you know how you do that with your actual suitcase so you can identify yours?!).

For the inside of the card I used the Fashionable brush stamp set from My Digital Studio and resized the images and coloured them in various shades of pink (as Michelle's team is the Pink Ladies (& Lads) aka The Pinkies). The images I used where meant to be a reminder of the essential things she needed to take - well a girl has to have those all important accessories when going on a glamorous trip!

 To make this project you will need:

Cardstock/Paper: Basic Black, Whisper White ♦ Stamps: Fashionable Brush Stamp Set (MDS) ♦ Ink: Versamark ♦ Tools/Accessories: Stampin' Trimmer, Heat Gun, Clear Embossing Powder, Bone folder, Scalloped Tag Topper Punch, Corner rounder punch, Chalk marker, Silver mini brads, Blushing Bride Chevron ribbon, Stampin' Dimensionals, Rhinestones

If you want to create your own suitcase card, why not order the items you need from my online shop 24/7 or if you prefer contact me directly.

Bon voyage Michelle - can't wait to hear all about it!

A la prochaine! Amitiés!

Fast Friday - Week 12

Sorry there was no Fast Friday last week but I am back this week with a quick card that I made to accompany an order for a customer who had ordered the two heart punches. I thought I would show her a way of using the punches - don't worry I used my own punches not hers!

I used some retired DSP called First Edition. But don't worry if you don't have this as it is now available as a Digital Download for MDS - so you can print it out onto your own paper, resize it and even change the colours! How great is that? I punched out 3 hearts from the DSP and then folded them and stuck them back to back to create this fan effect.

To make this project you will need:

Cardstock/Paper: Crumb Cake, Silver Foil, Naturals White, First Edition DSP (retired - alternative First Edition DSP MDS Digital Download) ♦ Stamps: Positively Chevron, Express Yourself (hostess 2013/14) ♦ Ink: Craft Whisper White, Basic Grey ♦ Tools/Accessories: Full Heart punch, Small Heart punch, Modern Label punch, Stampin' Dimensionals, Basic pearls

You can order from my online shop 24/7 or if you prefer contact me directly. Don't forget the Weekly Deals will finish on Tuesday at 10.59pm (BST)!

A la prochaine! Amitiés!
