Pretty Paper Packets – Ideas to Use Today!

Today I am sharing some ideas with you using the February Pretty Paper Packet. This packet consists of several pieces of Parisian Blossoms DSP, cardstock, foil, embellishments and ribbon. 

I want to show you how to use these products without having to purchase the coordinating stamps and dies.

This first card is based on a design from Connie Stewart. So simple and yet very pretty. I promise your friends will be impressed when they receive this card. I made 3 cards using this layout: birthday, thank you, and get well. It would be easy to make several of these at one time and leave off the sentiment. When you need a card, grab this and add the appropriate sentiment. Bam!

My next card is layered designer series paper, add a ribbon and desired sentiment, pop in the mail. Easy peasy.

If you did purchase the coordinating stamp set, you can make some lovely cards using the stamps and dies but I wanted to give you ideas for using your packets in a different way. I hope these ideas will spark your creativity. Please share what you have created with your Pretty Paper Packets. I would love to see your creations.

Stamptastic Friends Sampler Creations

It is hard to believe that a month has gone by and the Stamptastic Friends are hopping again.

Time flies when you are having stamping fun!

Our theme this month is Samplers. I know you are going to love the variety of styles and samples we have created for you. 

The main reason I have been absent from blogging is we are in the process of buying and selling a house. Talk about chaos. It has been a whirlwind of travel and activity.

We finally found a home we both love, and it has a beautiful craft studio for me. I decided to make a sampler to adorn the wall over my desk.

I used the Parisian Blossoms Suite for this 9” x 9” sampler. I also used the new Stitched So Sweetly Dies to cut the DSP pieces. I love the option of shapes and sizes this die set offers.

The Eiffel Tower is die cut from Champagne Foil as is the Fleur-de-lis. I love the way this came out, flirty and fun. Just what I wanted for my new studio.

Now that we are getting our house projects settled, I plan to get back to business! Fingers crossed everything goes well.
