Circles

Made at SU class, we did a set of cards suitable for men.

I know a lot of card-makers say they struggle with masculine cards. I think we are perhaps just drawn to girly stuff when we are browsing for stash and ignore the dull blokey things!

Another rainbow

Similar to the last one but changed the sentiment and added some faux stitching.
Not sure how else to use the die really.
The only thing I can think is to put it through an embossing folder but the rainbow is always going to be the focal point isn't it? So maybe a bit limited, dunno...

Rainbow

I love rainbows so could not resist this Die-namics die. Sentiment printed on computer.

Gift Bag

Made at SU class. The snowflake stamp was triple-embossed so is a nice chunky disc.

Merry Christmas

Made at SU class.

Celebrate

Another one from the SU class I missed, made by mum.

Birthday Wishes

Made at SU class by my mum (I would have made the same but away on holiday!)

Friends

Made at class so all materials are SU.

Flowers

Made at Stampin' Up class so all materials are SU.

Christmas

To match the gift bag on the previous post.

No tutorial or measurements for this one as it's not needed. I worked it out by eye and it's just a piece of cardstock folded into three with the sides taped down.

It holds a packet of coffee sachets.
I think there are three in the pack and cost about £1.40 in Tesco. Sometimes I like to post not-quite-a-gift things in with my Christmas cards.

Gift Bag

Oh look it's another gift bag, that means I'll have to buy more chocolates.

Sentiment is Craftwork Cards.
Holly punch is Martha Stewart.
Ribbon and eyelets are SU.

Gift Bag

Little bit addicted to making these now.
This one is Papermania kraft cardstock, stamped with SU 'Serene Snowflakes'.
Eyelets are also SU and ribbon is from Tesco.
Vellum sentiment is DCWV.

Gift Bag

I posted a link the other day to a free tutorial for making a gift bag. The bags use a sheet of 12 x 12 and are very easy to do.

They're not quite wide enough for a DVD (which was my first thought) so I had a quick look in the supermarket whilst doing the weekly shopping to see what would fit.

The height is perfect for these bubble baths, also Cadbury's chocolate bags.
Handily these were on offer at Tesco so I thought I should buy some, just for your benefit you understand.
So you could see they fit the gift bag. Not because I wanted to eat them, no.

The Twirl ones are delicious ;)

Lovely Pair!

Paper is Cosmo Cricket and the sentiment is computer generated.
