Avery Elle – Just a Note

Greetings!  I’m over on the Avery Elle Blog today with a card featuring the fabulous Just a Note dies.  They can be used standalone as a cute little gift card holder or added to a card as a little pocket for a hidden note or gift.

I die cut the smallest tag from the Gift Tags die collection and stamped a secret “Bonjour” to tuck inside the flap of the Just a Note die.  You could hide all kinds of little messages in there – I love it!  The Avery Elle Design Team shares new ideas and inspiration on the Avery Elle blog every day so make sure you keep popping back for some amazing projects – those girls ROCK!!

Simon Says Stamp October Card Kit Revealed!

Final-Oct-2014-CardKit

It’s the 14th so that means reveal day for the latest Simon Says Stamp Card Kit – woo-hoo!  I squealed when I opened the box with this one – the colours are so warm and cozy – perfect to go with the fabulous “coffee and tea” themed stamp set and embellishments.  The papers are just gorgeous and there’s even a super little cup die in there – love it!

I made a card inspired by the colours from the papers and used the card in the kit with the die.  There’s some sweet little sequins in there too – I just love it ALL!

Now these kits are notorious for selling out so if you want it, then go get it before it’s gone!!

Have a great Sunday where ever you are.  I’m going off with some friends for a family bike trek/picnic over in Delamere Forest – such a pretty part of the world and only half an hour from us!

I can’t wait to see how you interpret this challenge – there are so many options available to you – stamps, paper, embossing folders, stencils… the list is endless!  Lets make Summer last as long as possible!!

For my card this week I grabbed one of my favourite stamp sets Ice Cream Dreams designed by Kristina Werner for by Simon Says Stamp.  I have been dying to play with this set – the images are just gorgeous.  I stamped 3 popsicles and coloured them using Copics and finished them off with a nice thick coat of glossy accents!
