creative notes....

After last Sundays training and lots of fellow demonstrators admiring my notebook i thought today I'd share it with all my blog friends... It's my Stampin up notebook I take to meetings, I jot down my to dos in it, sketch out ideas... Basically anything crafting or Stampin up it goes in here... My bible 

I went for neutral colours, crumb cake, very vanilla and basic black for a classic look.. My swallowtail is heat embossed with black embossing powder on crumb cake card stock, which I carefully cut out and stuck on to my first edition DSP base...

I just love the rose trim from the spring and summer mini... I almost hate cutting it to use it!! Does anyone else get like this about products or beautiful DSP or is it just crazy old me ????

What I've used:

Stamps - swallowtail, broadsheet alphabet, that's the ticket roller, 

Cardstock and ink - basic black, crumb cake, and very vanilla, first edition DSP

Embellishments - all Stampin up - tea time trinkets, twine, rose trim, paper flower made from several scallop circle punches, ribbons down ring binder all Stampin up.

This is also simular to one you would get if you signed up as a demonstrator with me and my team, as part of your welcome to my team welcome pack... Obviously with your name or initials tehehehe...

Heres the card Ive made to play along with the challenge: 

I hope you like it... please feel free to leave me a comment.

  

I decided to keep my card very simple and have the letters as my main focal point, I love these letters there from the Stampin' Up! Broadsheet Alphabet set, I do love this set alot. The heart stamp Ive used to represent my 'o' is from the NEW Spring & Summer Seasonal Catalogue, Hearts a Flutter set which has a co-ordinating 'Framelits Dies' set to go with it, to save you time cutting out, and also saves you 15% if you buy both together.

Each of my letters were stamped and then punch out with the SU 'Postage Stamp' punch. such a versatile and handy punch. I love being able to design my own 'stamps'

What i used to make my card: White cardstock, Cherry Cobbler Ink, Postage Stamp Punch, Broadsheet Alphabet Stamp set, Hearts a Flutter Stamp Set.

I do think this card could look quite nice with a red card base and cream background... so heres what i did next:

  

What do you think???

Ive also dry embossed the background with Perfect Polka Dots embossing folder. This time ive cut the heart out with one of the Hearts a flutter Framelits dies. I think i may prefer this one???

Heres what ive used: Very Vanilla cardstock, Cherry Cobbler cardstock and Ink, Postage Stamp Punch, Broadsheet Alphabet Stamp set, Hearts a Flutter Stamp Set and Framelits Dies. Perfect Polka Dot Embossing folder.
