For the New Two

Weddings, weddings, weddings, someone has weddings on the brain.  I have to say that I am enjoying that very much.  This was the third project I used for my club ladies this last Saturday.  I hadn’t had them create a card and bag duo before, but they handled it quite well.

This Brushstrokes background stamp sure has been fun to play with.  The ladies thought this was designer paper, not paper they would create.  So very useful and a ton of fun.  I am sad I waited so long to buy one for my collection.  I can think of so many possibilities, I think black and gold will be next for this stamp, perhaps gold embossing?

I used the coordinating, or second half of the sentiment on the tag for the gift bag instead of the inside of the card.  It is fun to tie the set together not only be design and color, but by wordings as well.  It really puts the whole stamp set to work.

Does this conjure images of a wedding couple or what?  I do have another idea though.  Honestly, I went with brighter colors for that other idea.

For the New Two

We often associate two as a couple, as in a relationship couple.  Friends of mine are currently working as nannies for a set of twins.  So, how about congratulating a couple on the birth of their twins?  Get it?  For the new two?

Well,  I thought it was very clever indeed.  There are plenty of gift ideas for baby boys and girls, but how about those twins?  It will take longer for triplets and such, but I am sure there is a way.

This is made from a whole sheet of english garden dsp and isn’t it glorious?  I paired it with the thick backers twine and went cherry cobbler all the way.  A handful of punched and sponged hearts were the perfect embellishment.  A small doily helped to close it off.  The stamp is of course from the wedding set, For the New Two.  I layered the tags using the scalloped tag topper punch, happens to be on sale this week oddly enough, and the hearts border punch as well.  Quite the gift bag if I do say so myself, and I do.

Have a creative day!

I love an opportunity to use something beautiful.  I loved nearly everything in this particular suite.  The background stamp, Something Lacy, has quickly found its place in my heart.  I have used it so many times.   This could be project three for workshop, you think?

A good friend recently got married and I needed a card of course.  I used the inspiration from the Stampin’Up! Spring Catalog.  Denali wanted the flowers to be blue though.  She thought it appropriate with the idea of ‘something borrowed, something blue’.

Of course the designer series paper we are using for the thank you cards is actually called Something Borrowed.  She didn’t even know it.  Guess that means blue is perfect.

I stamped with white Stazon on vellum cardstock then colored select items from the back side with blendabilities.  I could have done quite a bit more, but wanted the focus to be on the sentiment.

It is all about the bride and the groom after all.  And this couple sure is wonderful!

Have a creative day!
