Handmade re-usable notepad folder

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

Today’s project is a quick and easy notepad folder.

Front cover…

I cheated a little…I used black contact (instead of cardstock) for the folder’s spine to save me time to glue it on. As I mentioned, this folder is meant to be a quick and easy one!

back cover…

inside…

It has a pocket for sliding the notepad in and out, so it can be re-used again & again.

Folder’s recipe

Stamp set: Heart a flutter

Paper: Just add cake (retired), whisper white and basic black

Ink: Basic Grey

Other: Heart a flutter framelits, small heart punch, large scallop edgelit and washi tape

Heart a Flutter Anniversary Card

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

Hi everyone.  Today I’m sharing with you a card that I made for my husband for our silver anniversary. I used soft sponge technique (inspired by Connie Stewart of Simply Simple Stamping) on very vanilla card stock to create different colours rather than using different coloured card stocks. I love this technique.  Connie Stewart is one of my favourite Stamin’ Up! demonstrators.  I got some silver glimmer paper as a free gift from Stampin’ Up! for my recent orders, and this is a good opportunity for me to use them. I think it is shiny, pretty and suits the occasion quite well.

and here is the inside of the card

Stamp Set: Hearts a Flutter (p11*) and Trust God (p136)

Stamp Pad: Old Olive (p153), Regal Rose (p153) and Tempting Turquoise (p153)

Card Stock: Very Vanilla (pp156), Silver Glimmer Paper (p160), Old Olive (p153) and White Vellum (p160)

‘Gift Basket’ from ‘Ovals Collection’ Framelits Dies

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

Hi everyone, I had so much fun using the ‘Ovals Collection’ framelits dies to make an easter bunny basket last night.  (I called it a basket even though it has no handles!)  Today I decided to make another basket, not a bunny one, just a gift basket that we can use for any occasions and with the handles this time!

I intend to use this basket to hold a gift for my husband for our upcoming silver anniversary.  I used baja breeze card stock so it doesn’t look so girly, but sweet enough for the anniversary occasion, and the ‘Honeycomb’ embossing folder to add interesting texture to the basket.

These are the items I used:

Stamp Set: Hearts a Flutter* (p11*), Itty Bitty Banners (p134), Vintage Verses**

Stamp Pads: Primrose Petal (2012-2014 In-Colour, p152), Pool Party (2011-2013 In-Colour, p152) and Pink Piroutte (Subtles Classic, p 154)

Card Stock: Baja Breeze (p154), Very Vanilla (p156)

DSP: More Amore Specialty* (p10*)

Embossing folders: Honeycomb* (p6*)

Framelits: Hearts a Flutter* (p11*)

Embosslits: Beautiful Wings (p188)

Others: Cute Clip* (p28*), Pearl Basic Jewels (p175)

Notes: * These are items from the new seasonal catalogue
