Scentsational Christmas card

By: Bussakorn Mpelasoka, Stampin’ Up! ® Independent Demonstrator, Canberra

Christmas is not too far away, so I decided to start working on Christmas cards, gifts and gift tags. The new Christmas stamp sets I like are so popular, they are currently out of stock and I have to wait for another two weeks or so to get them. So I will be using the retired stamp sets for now. I love Stampin’ Up! stamps so dearly, they will never be retired from my collections anyway.

For today’s card, I used the candy cane, gingerbread man and star stamps from the ‘Scentsational Season’ stamp set. The card base is Natural White card stock.

I added a pinwheel (using the retired pinwheel Sizzlits S die) and three candies (using 1 1/4” circle punch).

I used Bermuda Bay card stock for the pot, embossed the top and bottom with the cross stitch ‘Needlepoint Border’ embossing folder.

I used the ‘envelope punching board’ to create a file folder look.

Thank you cards

I need three ‘thank you’ cards that are not the same, but similar. These are what I came up with.

I used Whisper White and Strawberry Slush card stock, the large oval stamp from the ‘Oh Hello’ stamp set (in Brushing Bride ink, then sponge lightly on some spots with Strawberry Slush ink), ‘thank so much’ stamp from the ‘Simply Sketched’ stamp set and some tearing edges for all the three cards.

Then I added stamps from the ‘Thoughts & Prayers’ stamp set and ‘Itty Bitty’ flowers on two of the cards,

and a stamp from the ‘Simply Sketched’ stamp set and ‘Boho Blossoms’ flowers on one of the cards.

I used the ‘envelope punching board’ to make an envelope for each card.

SU ink refill storage boxes

By: Bussakorn Mpelasoka, Stampin’ Up! ® Independent Demonstrator, Canberra

Today’s project is storage boxes for Stampin’ Up! ink refills. Each box can store 10 bottles. They are so easy to make – measurements included below.

Box 1, I used black card stock and decorated with butterflies (Gingham Garden DSP, Beautiful Wings Embosslits) and strips of Pear Pizzazz and Strawberry Slush card stock.

Box 2, I used ‘My Mind’s Eye’ designer paper with butterfly pattern (bought at the craft show in Canberra last August).

I also made a partition for each box,

so the bottles can stand in two rows of five and I can separate the two sets of the In-colours.

I decorated the top of the lid with the butterfly pattern paper (instead of the embosslit butterflies),

so I can stack them on top of each other.
