Card Off With Jen, Wednesday 17th June 2015

It’s been ages since Jen and I had another “Card Off” Challenge.
Jen set the challenge this time, “Thank You + Gift Bag Punch Board”!
As usual, although we both had access to all the same crafty items, both of our projects turned out so differently!


Jen’s Thank You Gift Bag featured the stamp sets “Another Thank You”, ”Flowering Flourishes” and “Petite Petals”, + Rich Razzleberry and Wisteria Wonder cardstock, + Wisteria Wonder Seam Binding Ribbon, and White Stampin’ Embossing Powder.



My Thank You Gift Bag featured the stamp set “Kinda Eclectic”, my colours were Island Indigo, Lost Lagoon, and Whisper White cardstocks, and Gold Stampin’ Embossing Powder
I added some Gold Sequins¸ from the Gold Sequin Trim, Gold Metallic Thread and more gold on the flower, which was punched using the “Fun Flower” and "7/8” Scallop Circle" Punches, and secured with an Antique Brad.
The Gift Bag was secured with my favourite Ribbon, Tip Top Taupe Dotted Lace Trim.


I also made a cute little matching 3”x3” card ...


The result … it was a Draw!

I’m All Big Shot’ed Out!!!



Recently one of my favourite crafty ladies {M}, departed for a 2 month stay in Invercargill, which is at the bottom of the South Island and very cold!


As it is so cold, M will be spending a lot of time indoors and crafting.
So I set to, and made her some words to go with all the cards she will be making.
Using the “Hello You” Thinlits, I cut her 4 words in 8 colours, x3 each + the same in butterflies, using the “Butterflies” Thinlits.


Can you do the math?
That means I cut 4x8x3=96 words and 8x3=24 butterflies!
Phew, hence why I am “All Big Shot’ed Out”!!!





I sorted all the words and butterflies, and then using the negative details from the images, I popped the items into different envelopes.


Wah-lah M is ready to get her craft on!!!
