True Gentleman Suitcase

It’s time for project 6 — a suitcase box featuring the True Gentleman designer paper and filled with a special treat — adorable.  I think this was the second favorite project for everyone.  They all received a package of Linen Thread for this project.

This project is great for the men in your life or change the color scheme and any woman would love to receive it too.  Are you ready for it……..

It’s cute, right?  But wait, let’s take a peek at the inside.

You slide the designer paper wrapper off, lift the top off the box and
viola, there is the cute little gift inside — Tito’s Vodka.  Of course you
can change the treat inside to any little bottle or if you don’t want
alcohol, that’s ok, put a Snickers candy bar inside.
You could tuck some cash under the bottle or candy and
have a wonderful birthday gift.
I think this would also be adorable in pink or maybe red with
the Petal Passion designer paper.

Hold On To Hope Card Set – Project 5

We are to the half way point of our Stampin’ Sisters Retreat projects.  This is one of my favorite projects.  We used the Hold on to Hope stamp set and Cross of Hope Framelits and Wisteria Wonder with Elegant Eggplant and Champagne Foil accents.  The cards have a soft feel and would be perfect for Easter or Sympathy.

I saw lots of wonderful cards on Pinterest — thank you all for your inspiration.  I hope you like these cards as much as I do.  How would you like a card kit to make your own set of cards?  Place an order for the Hold on to Hope Bundle and Whisper White 1/4″ Organza Ribbon and I’ll mail you the kit of supplies along with step by step directions to make all four cards (envelopes included).  I will die cut all the circles and ovals for you, you will cut your own crosses, banners, butterflies and flowers.

How would you like a Sale-a-Bration item too — just add dimensionals, Multipurpose Glue (green glue), Elegant Eggplant stamp pad or any other item and you get to choose a Level 1 Sale-a-Bration item.

Petal Passion Memories & More Card Pack Framed Art

Today I am sharing Project 4 from Stampin’ Sisters Retreat.  This was the favorite project of the weekend.  We used the Petal Passion Memories & More Card Pack from the Occasions Catalog.  The original use for these cards was for quick & easy scrapbooking but there is so much more you can do with them.  You are make lots and lots of gorgeous cards and you can make your very own framed art piece like this.

This framed art piece is absolutely gorgeous in black and white as shown and will fit in every decor style and color.  But if you want to make it even more spectacular, get out your Stampin’ Blends and color away.  You can make it fit any color scheme you want.

Best part yet — when you purchase the Petal Passion Memories & More Card Pack, you get two of each card so you can make another identical frame and many, many more with all the other cards that are left over.  I think you could have next year’s Christmas gifts done in no time at all.  Just pick up an 8″ x 8″ frame at your local craft store and you are ready to do.
