Flower shop thank you card

New stampset alert!
This really is my favourite time of year - seriously, beautiful crisp weather and a new annual catalogue to choose from.
Every time that parcel post man arrives at my door there's a new bundle of stamps and products to play with.
This bright little card is made with the flower shop stamps and matching punch.
Using some gorgeous in colours: Strawberry slush, Coastal Cabana, Bermuda Bay and Crisp Cantaloupe.
To make some dimension with these flowers I have used my bone folder to gently curl the petals upwards.
In the centre of each flower I've placed a different embellishment. A punched heart, a vintage faceted button, a flower brad, and a clay flower that I made at convention - coloured with crisp cantaloupe ink.
I think this size card makes a cute Thank you or ... You make me happy note card that would brighten someone's day don't you think?
Flower shop stamps (set of 6) $33.95 clear mounted
Pansy punch $27.95

You can find this stampset on page 94 of the annual catalogue and if you purchase as a bundle you can save and get 15% off!

Launch party projects

Here's one of the projects we made at my launch party on Friday night.
It's a cute little gift box resized to fit a t-bag and chocolate bar...
Inside we found enough room for a picnic ( or chocolate of your choice) and a t-bag or coffee sachet and slid in an after dinner mint too.
I am showing off one of the new designer series paper packs on this one - 
The epic day this and that papers. The colours are Calypso Coral, Pool party, crumb cake, gumball Green, Daffodil Delight, Basic grey, vanilla and white.
We added a clay flower to the front of our box with a few dabs of two way glue pen. And as you can see below the white clay flowers can be coloured with our classic inks. Either before you put the clay in the mould or after its dry. So your embellishments will match your in colour and cardstock every time.
I just love that! And they are great with a coat of crystal effects as well.
At launch parties it's quite a rush to get through three projects in as many hours. But when you think that these cards only take ten minutes each to make there's  a lot of talking, sharing and meeting new people going on.
We used two new stamps - Label Love (that you can get for 15% off if you buy it in a bundle with the matching punch).
Happy Day - a stampset with fabulous rosettes for backgrounds  and fit nicely in many of our punches.
 
Thanks for dropping in for a look... Give me a call and we can make some of these cute boxes at your place.
Place an order of $50 or book a party with me in July and receive a new catalogue and gift from me,
Or I can post one direct to you anywhere in Australia for $10. (includes postage).
