CRAFTDOC

I altered the Art Journal from the big catalog into an idea book.  The first section is card layouts, then project ideas and then techniques.  I used the Office Accoutrements set, Notations paper, colored brads, celery ribbon and the new spiral and tab punches.   I used the retired Great Shapes set and blush blossom ink to make the card shapes.

This is a notebook from the Target dollar spot decorated with the Office Accoutrements set, Notations paper and grosgrain ribbon.  Both the spiral punch and the tab punch were used.  Can you guess that this book used to have Elmo on the cover?

I bought this set for scrapbooking, but it makes great cards too.  I used the kissing technique with the memo stamp in the top card flower, and the bottom card flower center.  The top card has an interesting fold, after scoring 1/2 inch in and adding some brads.   Words are from Everyday Flexible Phrases.   Love that new spiral punch too!

I’ve had a lot of fun with the Office Accoutrements set from the spring minicatalog.  It looks great paired with the It’s Your Birthday Stamp Set and the Big Deal Alphabet.  The coordinating Notations Designer paper is great with the So Saffron, Certainly Celery, Chocolate Chip, Taken With Teal, Cool Caribbean, Tempting Turquoise and Sahara Sand colors.   These cards were adapted from samples posted by Stampin’ Up!

I found these huge wooden clothespin photo holders on clearance at Kohl’s.  They even match Stampin’ Up! colors!  I altered the Cool Caribbean one with the Notations Designer paper from the spring minicatalog.  With some grosgrain ribbon, it sure looks cool!
