Fun Fold Velvet Meadow

I had some gorgeous DSP from SU, “Velvet Meadow”, which has velvety soft flock texture on the designs.

I really wanted to show the paper off, and the idea for this fun fold was from Libbystamps.com

It’s a 6” x 6” card

Focal front sentiment Crafty Roo, embossed in gold on vellum,

 inside sentiment Uniko

The idea is you can have a continuous display of the patterned paper.

Above it’s laid flat,

Below is an aerial view.

Magical mermaid on the tiles

 Today’s card is for a great niece.

I decided to use some more old stash including this cute vibrant paper.

I used SU Magical Day (retired) for the background and to stamp and die cut the mermaid and seahorse.

The set also has these sentiments and banners to die cut.

I placed them onto a square tile using a newish SU die set Tile Garden.

I hope you have a magical day!

We have an extra hour and a sunny breezy day 😃

Today It’s a pink tag…

 As I had lots of pink bits on my desk I made a tag for Christmas.

I used a retired SU die for the tag, which folds up so you can put a gift card or something inside.

A Gummiapan Hot Chocolate die, and a little stamping to ground the mug,

some more of that old pink ribbon and white twine so I can hang it on a gift.
