Adele's Scrapbook

I made this page last year, I was hired to make a scrapbook. There were loads of programs from concerts and awards and certificates, not so many pictures...so most pages had file tabs or pockets to hold all of the extras.

Here is a picture of the left side. 

This is the right side of the 2 page spread. I used the Envelope Punch board to make the 

file tabs across the top.

Setting the Thanksgiving Table

The Sisters in Stamping blog is featuring Thanksgiving favors this week. Here is my project--

 

I used the new Envelope Punch Board (#133774, $19.95) and the Tags 4 You Bundle (pg.37 of the Holiday Mini catalog) to create my favor. I cut the leaves with the Autumn Accents Bigz die (pg.192 IB&C, #113468, $21.95) and used the Perfect Polka Dots Embossing Folder (pg. 191 IB&C, #117335, $7.95) to give them some texture.  It opens up--

I attached a pouch of Spiced Cider with some sticky strip. My pouch measured out to 3 1/2x 4 1/4 and I used the Punch Board to do the rest-- it was awesome! All of the guess work, measuring and scoring taken care of, you've gotta love that. I CASED the idea kinda, from Julie Davison, here is a link to her blog post.

There are more Thanksgiving favor ideas over at the Sisters in Stamping blog, so go take a look!

Happy Stamping, Karla c(:

Christmas Advent for Fabulous Friday

Well hey there! It's Rachel's turn over on the Sisters in Stamping blog and she has picked framed art as her project this week. I didn't use a "frame"....I did something a little different, here is my project for this week--

 

 

It's an Advent Calendar made with the new Envelope Punch Board. I'm not quite done with it yet, but I took some pictures of it so that I could show you how cute it's turning out. I used a cookie sheet (13x9, I purchased it at the W-Mart store) and punched 2 holes in the top to run the ribbon through for hanging. There are 2 strips of washi tape on the the top and bottom, I love the splash of color.

 

 

 The little envelopes were made with the NEW Envelope Punch Board the small numbers (1-11) are 3 1/4" square the larger ones are 3 1/2" square. There is a scallop circle of Silver Glimmer paper under each number and a rhinestone in the center of each tree so it's very glittery!

The back side serves as storage for the little envelopes as the Advent Calendar gets used. Each envelope has a small tag in it that you can right on

Thank-you for coming by today and checking out my cute Advent Calendar. make sure you stop by next Friday for more Holiday Ideas!

Happy Stamping! Karla c(:
