Christmas tags in July

My crafting desk is a mess! Trying to clear the desk to create samples for the Sympathy Card class and decided to create something with these little 6" x 4" scraps of white paper.

Christmas is right around the corner so start creating now! (Yea right, can we find the time??!!)

The stamp is from Hero Arts Celebrate Simple Joy. I love the "quirkiness" of the tree. The paper is by Basic Grey. I've been looking for these tiny gold star brads for a while and use them a lot during the holidays. I finally found some on E-bay. These are 3 x 3 tags.

Iris Folding Cards

Here are the sample cards from the Iris Folding Class this past week

Iris Folding is a "patience-learning" technique that produces beautiful results with your paper scraps that any one, any age, can do. It is a technique that I have seen come and go and come back again and again. Google it and find lots of patterns and inspiration to create your Iris Folding card today!

Wedding - Bride and Groom

This GORGEOUS tri-fold card was designed by Lynn Pratt at stampndesign. She graciously allowed me to use her design and template in my wedding class. Isn't it just beautiful!! Thank you so much, Lynn!!

Summer Afternoon

Sizzix and Quickutz dies, Cloud punch by EK Success; Snagged quote from Nicole @ Papertrey July 1 News (Love their products and designs!!!)

Pink Plaid Tote

I was asked if I would make a tote which would be filled with little girly treasurers as a gift. Here's what I came up with:

Supplies used: Bazzil cardstock; SU Square Lattice Embossing Plate; American Crafts Glitter Brad and I think the flower is by Bazzil.

Le Chic bag

Another little bag I made for a birthday celebration. This time a flower was added and a mini card. It looks like a summer bag, doesn't it? A personal alarm, some Hawaiian Host candy and handmade 3x3 tags fit perfectly!

BTW. the little circles were all glued all over the white paper and then embossed with SU Square Lattice. I love that embossing plate!!

They are so easy to make and so quick!
