Post it note holder

Hya,

Happy Bank Holiday to you. Gosh my day off seems to be wizzing by. How is yours? This weekend i have had to do the school shopping which is always fun (not!!) Once we had done the majority of it there was a wedding fair on in Leeds. Now Lauren was in her element here. She absolutley loves anything to do with weddings, so much so i think it's definatley where a career lies for her. She got chance to talk to the owner of the wedding dress shop and managed to get some information from her. Lauren would love to do her work experience in a wedding dress shop.

Anyway time to show you my latest project. I am still going with the monochrome theme ish. I decided to do a three d project which is a post it note holder.

For the base i have used Basic Black card stock. I have then used papers from the Night and Day speciality papers. I have layered these onto Whisper White to give abit a bit of detail. I have used the gorgeous Real Red Satin Ribbon tied together with a jewel brad from the Pretties Kit. That kit does seem to go along way. There is a slot that you can put a pen in. On the pen i covered the main body with matching paper.

Here i have shown you the inside angle just so you can see how the post it note sits.

Well that's it for now, hope you likey : ) have a good week.

Birthday Girl

Hya,


How lucky am I? Yesturday was my birthday and i just wanted to say thank you to all the people who took time to send me a card. It was a lovely treat getting so many nice cards in the post. I thought i would show you a selection of them.

How lovely are they. I had a lovely day and got lots of nice prezzies.

I have a project to show you too. 'Cripes' I hear you cry. Like buses you don't get any thing for a while and then they all come at once!

I am going to do a new class tomorrow evening and wanted to take some cards that had been made with Stampin' Up products. I don't have much space and to show case them off, this is what i came up with.

This is a photo album that I have decorated. I have used the new night and day papers from the mini catalogue. I have totally covered the front and back with them and then used Whisper White to keep the inside covers tidy. I used Whisper White and stamped the wording with basic black, using The Perfect Alphabet stamp set. The border is using the Eyelet border punch. I also used the gorgeous Whisper White Satin Ribbon. The jewel brad on the front of the ribbon is from the pretties kit too.

This is the view so you can see there are cards inside. I just love the way this has turned out. I can't wait to show my ladies tomorrow.

Well, thats it for now. Have a good week.
