Timeless Elegance with Black Glimmer Paper

It is so enjoyable to create something very lovely that is so simple to put together.  That is just how nice it is to work with great product that makes you feel so creative and talented.

I had been wanting to use this fun black glimmer paper differently than shown in the catalog.  It was fun to see it with all of the Halloween projects, but I think it has a lot more uses.  Simple little flowers for instance.  I didn’t want to use a punch too large because I wasn’t sure how to center them.  These little flowers didn’t require a button or anything.  So adorable.

I cut a strip of the dsp 3 3/4″ wide for the card front and thought it would be nice to make a matching gift bag with the rest of the strip.  It worked out pretty nicely, don’t you think?  It is big enough for a few treats, or even a gift card.  Just my kind of favorite thing, a card and matching bag.

Workshop Madness Day 4

These two bags were my favorite favors. I do love the Sweet Hauntingshappy set.  The sentiments are the best.i think they can hang around longer than just Halloween though. I do love it when a seasonal stamp can get used more than it was intended.

Sometimes I see a Halloween favor and it makes me want to host a party just so they can be used. These two did this for me, especially the bakers style box. The bottles labeled all cute are awesome. And how can you not love saying death by chocolate?

It is hard to tell, but the orange box is also embossed with ever so wonderful woodland textured embossing folder.  I really hope it gets to carry over from this catalog.

Workshop Madness Day 1

In a prior post I mentioned a demonstrators workshop that I was able to attend.  There were a lot of ladies there and excitement was certainly in the air.  I thought I would go through some of the samples I brought back and show them to you.

The next five days will be all about Halloween.  For some reason, there was a lot more of that than the other holidays, maybe because it was closer.

Workshop Madness Day 1

This gift bag was created with scoring and cutting, and then layering up with lots of cute things.  The stamp and punch were actually carry over from the last holiday catalog and I am so glad.  Such a great set.  But the paper is new, and it is so cute!

Workshop Madness Day 1

This bag is made from the gift bag punch board and really goes together easy.  I hadn’t thought I could put this to use, since I adore my score board for bags, but I just might change my mind.  It doesn’t have to complicated to look great.  Sometimes a simple favor is all you need.

Have a creative day!
