Hello Stampers,
We had such a great time in our jammies at the Dream Big Pajama Party. We were able to make six fabulous make n’ takes projects.
The first make n ‘ take uses the "Wanted Set" and Designer Papers. I wasn’t sure about this set when I saw it in the catalogue but once I saw all the neat ideas at Convention I’m so glad that this was one of our FREE sets. This is a perfect set for the men in your lives, even if they don’t ride horses. Here’s another sample using the same set.
We used the Crop-A-Dile to make the embossed dots on the pull out pieces – so clever! We also were able to set the jumbo eyelets easily and quietly.
This is a 12 x 12 scrapbook page using the Build a Flower Accents & Elements kit – so easy!
We also decorate the little tin the elements come in and made a quick card case that could be filled with cards and given as a gift. You could make this little tin purse along with 4 cards in less than 1 hour…much less.
My favourite stamp set from the new catalogue is Define Your Life along with the Defining Alphabet. I resisted purchasing it on my first order but broke down at Convention and bought it. The price of $65.95 seems like a lot but if you consider that you get 28 definitions that would suit any occasion it works out to $2.50 per stamp – they would be at least $10 in a stamp store so it’s wonderful value and the definitions are beautiful. Here’s a simple card using the 2 sets together along with elements from the Pretties Kit. So elegant when teamed with the Chocolate Chip wide Gros Grain. The 3 x 3 format makes it fast and easy to whip up tons of cards!
Happy Stamping!
Alison
These are all great projects
