POINSETTIA FLOWER POT CHRISTMAS CARD - STAMPIN' UP!

I made this christmas card, with a friend in mind, she told me she wanted to learn how to make them, so i decided to make one for her for christmas to surprise her. I can hear her squealing all the way from 8 hours away.

Anyways, i used the Designer series paper from the simply scrapping I wish, card stock is choc chip and so is the ribbon which is double stitched grosgrain. I used the large oval and scalloped oval punch for the embellish, plus eyelet border punch to decorate the pot border.

The poinsettia's are watercoloured in real red and hansome green. The 2 silver flowers are embossed with heat and stick powder and then dazzling diamonds. All are adhered with pop up large glue dots and a small stand made for the back of the pot, so that it stands up right by itself.

All of the above items mentioned in the making of this card can be found in the current ideas book and spring mini catalogue which ends on the 30th november. If you would like to purchase any of these items, feel free to email or give me a call, no matter where you are in australia, i will post to you. Payments can be made through paypal, direct deposit or credit card.

STAMPIN UP TOP NOTE PURSE AND PLASTIC GIFT CARD HOLDER

LOOK WHAT WE MADE AT STAMP CLUB TODAY. I AM PROUD AS PUNCH TO INTRODUCE TO YOU MY LATEST CREATION: PLASTIC GIFT CARD HOLDER.

In todays fast paced world christmas shopping has never been easier than being able to grab a plastic gift card for a present. But being a christmas traditionalist, i love to open presents and cannot bare the thought of just giving a gift card. So i came up with and designed this gift card holder and tweeked it to fit inside a top note purse as shown in the photos above.

It was so easy to make it literally took me 5 minutes. Here are the directions:

Cut a peice of card stock 4" x 12" score at 10cm, 20 cm and 30cm. Punch 2 slits with the stampin up slit punch. You can either punch one on each side or in opposite corners. Decorate it with Stampin Up designer series paper and border eyelet punch and embellish. I have used the new stampin up scalloped oval punch currently available in the spring mini catalogue. But if you were wanting one, you best be quick because after the 30th november you will no longer be able to purchase them. And the slider card is 3.5" x 12" scored at 10.5cm and 21cm.

Here are the ingredients for the above creations;

1 carousel note

1 sheet of DSP bella rose

two top notes

one kiwi kiss strip of ribbon

2 pewter jumbo brads

red sticky

one peice of kiwi kiss card stock

Scalloped Oval punch ( only available till November 30th)

med oval punch

dimensionals

2 velcro dots

plus above ingredients for gift card holder
