Gift Bag

A while ago I showed you a card I made for a work colleagues 60th birthday and I have made this little matching gift bag to hold a small box of continental chocolates.

The bag is made with Whisper White cardstock as are the flowers, with a touch of Rose Red to add a little bit of colour (and to match the card!). The large flowers are made with the Blossom Party die, the smaller ones are punched from the Boho Blossoms punch and the leaves are cut with the Little Leaves die. I added a sentiment from Oval All, punched with the Oval Punch and matted onto a Rose Red Scallop Oval. The handles are made with Rose Red Seam Binding.

I hope you are making the most of this hot sunshine although, I have to say, I would have liked a bit of Spring in between Winter and Summer. Last week I was still wearing a winter coat and this week I'm too hot in a t-shirt!!

More Thank You's

  
Some more thank you cards as promised! These are on the same lines as the ones I posted yesterday but the two above are using some of the new products in the 2011-12 catalogue. The one pictured on the left is made using Island Indigo (one of the 2011-13 In-Colours) cardstock and DSP from the paper stack, with a bow of the lovely Ruffled Ribbon and on the left another new In-Colour, Lucky Limeade, again with DSP from the paper stack. The ribbon on this card is Whisper White Organza ribbon coloured with a sponge dauber and ink pad.
As with yesterday's cards the sentiment is from Oval All punched with the Oval punch and matted onto a co-ordinating Scallop Oval.

Thank You Mocha Morning!

 A quick post today to show you some little thank you cards, which measure just 6.5cmx9cm, that I have made with some scraps of the gorgeous Mocha Morning Speciality DSP, Basic Black, Soft Suede and Crumb Cake cardstock and Basic Black and Crumb Cake ribbon. I used a sentiment from Oval All punched with the Oval Punch and matted onto co-ordinating cardstock punched with the Scallop Oval punch. Very simple little cards which only take minutes to make but look quite luxurious when finished! I do need to make more of these so will be back to show you those when they are made.
