A Construction Card


Good morning everyone,

Here is a little slider card for you today. It is destined for my Secret Sister in America which I will be posting before I leave on Wednesday. I love these double sliders. I think they are awesomely clever in the building! I sometimes wonder about the people who make these things up!

Anyway, a busy day ahead of me today, so must away! Enjoy!

Materials: Stamps: I Brake For Stamps, Pink Cat Studios, "Surprise" Unknown Inks: StazOn Black Cardstock: Bazzill Other: DSFT, Pop Dots, SU Window Punch, 3/4" Circle Punch, 1 1/4 Circle Punch, Prisma Pencils, Odourless Mineral Solvent, Blending Stumps

A Little Construction



Afternoon ladies,

Today, I made a little teabag holder which is an excellent gift for those who have everything or for those who enjoy a cuppa! Actually, I think it would make a great little prezzie for the male in the house!

I stamped the front in Colourbox Dark Brown "Butterfly Dreams" by Paper Inspirations,
which is a beautiful collage of a lady, script and butterflies.

For the inside pocket, I made a plain sheet of light white card into something a tad more special by whipping out the distress inks, in particular Brushed Corduroy and Dried Marigold and overstamping and sponging the edges with the Colourbox Dark Brown again using I Brake for Stamps Tea Plate.

I don't work with orange overly much, but have decided this one turned out quite well and also that orange doesn't look half bad teamed up with brown! What do you think?
