Covered Post it Notes with Pen - Australiana

Hello

I have been creating again with these great Australiana dies from Ultimate Crafts.  This time I have used them on the covers of  Post it notes with pen holders. Two of the covers use patterned papers from Kaszazz and the others have backgrounds stamped with grass trees or gum trees.

Wallaby
Australia
Kookaburra
Platypus
Wombat

I find it really great to have dies of our own Australian flora and fauna to use on our crafty projects.
Enjoy
Till next time - Have fun crafting

Origami Paper Cards Part 1...







Good morning,

Today I have lots of Oriental inspiration for you.  I stamped out many images from my collection of Asian inspired Girls and matched them up with Origami papers. I selected cardstock to match and then coloured my images.  In this session I created about 20 cards, following are the first 7...







Origami papers are just the perfect product to use as the background papers for this card theme.         Flowers, fans, butterflies and cranes...
Back again soon with more cards to share with you,

Crochet Flower Bookmarks and Lanyards...

Hello,

Hope you have a fantastic day planned.  I have done the housework... well most of it hehe!  I have shared with you previously some of my crocheted flower creations, today I have two more ideas to show you.

First some bookmarks.  I hand stamped all the flowers and the sayings on the bookmarks using colours to co-ordinate with the flower colour.  I have also laminated each bookmark for added protection.



Next some lanyards.  These make a great gift as many people use lanyards these days for a variety of reasons - Id cards, keys, bus passes etc etc


Off to do some creating... hope you are as well!

Calendar Notes with Pen

Hello

This year is fast winding down and it is time to start thinking of creating those small Christmas and end of year gifts.
These little calendar pads for 2016 from Couture Creations are available now, (I got mine from Blue Edge Crafts), so here are the first of the Calendar Notes I will be creating.

 

 

 

 




The notes are all post it sticky notes, and are replaceable in the covers when used.

The dream catcher and arrow stamps are from Kaszazz.

Leaf, flower and feather stamps, punches and dies, along with the papers are from Stampin'up








Each set of calendar notes has a message space incorporated into the design, therefore making a gift and card in one.
A great gift idea, I think.
Till next time
