The Pretty Petites are so cute for little gift ideas.  The Petite Curley Label punch makes it even easier.  This is a little gift card holder.  Super EASY!  It's just a piece of designer series paper wrapped around a gift card.  A cardstock belly band around it to hold it closed.  Easy peasy.

The Pretty Petites has several choices that could be used for gift cards.  I used "for you".  There is also a "thank you" and a "happy birthday".  They all layer quickly and easily with the 1" square punch.

Until next time,

This card was nothing I had envisioned. I started out wanting to emboss clear on white.  Do you notice how some of the flowers have a little pink to them?  Well, that's what you get when your versa mark pad has cherry cobbler ink from dirty stamps at Christmas time.

The light cherry cobbler actually looked like pink pirouette so that became my layer color.  Things just progressed from there.

If your house is like my house, coffee is more than just a drink, it is a requirement!  I fell in love with this little cup of coffee with the heart steam from the Patterned Occasions set.  And who doesn't want to give their friends or family "a whole latte love"?

Isn't the triple stamp technique awesome.  It makes any card look like you have spent lots of time lining everything up just so.  I'm pretty sure Bloomin Marvelous has become my favorite SAB set.  What isn't there to like?  Flowers, butterflies, humming birds and verses too.

In this card I used a verse from Vintage Verses.

Hey, Smarty Pants!  I just love these little jeans and the Midnight Muse marker. With the marker you can make little streak lines to make your jeans look more realistic.

The stamp is from Patterned Occasions.  I think this stamp would be great for graduations.

Until next time,

Don't you love it when you can use up small strips of paper?  Me too!  This card is pretty self explanatory.  Paper ribbons, Vintage Verses stamped in Wild Wasabi, Pretty Petites with the Petite Curley Label  Punch.  The small flower is the small scallop punch from the Punch Pack.  A small rhinestone for some bling.

Until next time,

Note cards and markers are just wonderful.  I know there is a rock n roll technique that many people use. (Ink up a stamp in a light colored pad & then rock the edges of the stamp in a darker ink pad).

I thought I would play with that idea and my markers since I wanted more than just two colors. Then I remember when I was in high school and my teacher tried teaching us stenciling, blah, blah, blah.  I remembered how they used two colors on furniture etc. So that was the inspiration behind this card.

I used the flowers from You Are Loved and the verse is from Vintage Verses from the SAB catalog.

Until next time,
