Birthday Cake

My friend Catherine has recently been on a weight loss challenge, so I came up with a low-fat birthday present for her! I used the Sweet Always DSP, So Saffron, Regal Rose and Very Vanilla cardstock. The template for the Piece-a-Cake is here.

Inside I put some little goodies from Kikki K. The present on the right is some post-it notes that were too big for the cake! I wrapped them with some DSP and used the Ovals All stamp to make a label.

Tree Trimmed notecard

This was a quick notecard using the Tree Trimmings set and some scraps I had on my desk. The background is stamped with images from the Great Friend set. I think I'll be using this colour combo again for Christmas - Real Red, Garden Green and Kiwi Kiss.

Forest Friends Tree

I love the way the tree from the Forest Friends set looks when it is coloured with the stamp n write markers. The colours blend together just a little and on this stamp it gives a stencilled look, which I love.

This little calendar was a quick project (calendar from an educational supplier last year)

and close up

and a masculine-looking card, with some leaves from the Great Friend set in the background, and a piece of DSP also from the Spring Mini.

I two-toned the greeting with Close to Cocoa and Chocolate Chip markers and I love the look!

Baroque Motifs Christmas

I ran my first Stampin' Up! Christmas Card Class the other night, and this was one of the 8 cards we made. I used the Baroque Motifs stamp set with Real Red and Garden Green to give it a Christmassy flavour. The greeting is from the Best Yet hostess set.

Forest Friends Baby Card

I love this little deer from the Forest Friends set so much! This was a quick and simple card using Close to Cocoa, Certainly Celery and Pretty in Pink, and the Cameo Coral flower brings it to life.

Gift Box

Emily made this cute pouch for a schoolfriend's birthday. It was so cute! She used the Think Happy Thoughts stamp set, and used Rose Red and Ballet Blue inks and cardstock. What a great job! Inside were 3 mini Mars Bars for her friend Sarah.
