A Different Take on the Same Little Monkey!



One of my co-workers requested a thank you card for her doctor. Her doc is a male, so I wanted to stay away from anything too frilly. And since I really *love* Changito (smile!) I thought- why not do a different take on the 'Thank U' stamp? So this is what I came up with!

Elegant Couple




This was a card I did for the embossing challenge over on the Sistah's Blog. I had bought a wedding stamp set (on sale!!) by Inkadinkado I had been eyeing for a while and my friend had also just announced her engagement so--why not make a card with some embossing?!


To create the background the image of the couple is on, I stamped and embossed a really pretty swirl from the wedding set. I also embossed the image of the couple.

Can't Celebrate Without Cake!





These little cards were designed to be the perfect compliment to any wedding gift wrapping. I found the cake brads at Michael's and thought they were really adorable- just wasn't sure what I would do with them.... Then I came up with idea and decided to make a set of them with a box!!! So excited about my little box! I think I might give these away as a gift. After all- it is wedding season!

Card & Envie: Cut @ 4" from Plantin Schoolbook using Roly Poly feature
Border & Insert: Square from PS using Roly Poly feature
Cake: Brad from M's (not sure who it's by...)
Embossing: Cuttlebug Birds & Swirls; Swiss Dots

Bee Happy!




Can't you tell that I love doing these little note sets?? I was cruising around J's and found some Sizzix clear stamps on clearance (my favorite way to find things!!)! Throw in the 09 Summer Stack from DCWV and you get the 'Bee Happy' note set!

PP: 09 Summer Stack from DCWV
