Here are a few more cards using the new Topstitch Level 2 paper and Acrylic stamp sets- Embrace Life ( C1391) and You are Beautiful (C1352)


I also wanted to make a Card Holder for all the different card, so here is what I came up with.


Again , I wanted to use the new paper Topstitch . I used the My Acrylix Organizer (Z1038)


The measurements are as follows: Front, 2 sides, back 4" X6". Top 5 1/2" X 2 1/2". Use the corner rounder on all pieces. For the brown on the front I used a large rectangular nestibilities, but you could cut brown at 5 1/2" x 2 3/4" I cut C A R D S on the cricut using Storybook at 1 1/2". The blue pc on top of the brown is 5 1/4" x 2 1/2". For the lettering you could use alphabet stamps, stickers or hand write Cards. I added a bow and a flower with a brad that I had on hand on the front, and various ribbons on top.

For the divider I cust 6" x 6" cardstock and a nestibilities circle that was folded in halve and various stamps for the different occasions. You could also use punches . You don't have to limit yourself to circles.










The new Idea Spring 2010 Idea Book from Close to my Heart just came out and I've been busy using the new Acylic Stamp sets and the newly released Level 2 paper packet called Topstitch .


This card I used Ms.Chillin' (D1404), Beautiful from State of Mind(D1416)and for the single flower I used You are Beautiful (C1352)

January 1, 2010


Im going to start out the New Year right by trying to post the artwork I have been working on a regular basis. Today I made a card with the You are Beatiful stamp set. I also used the paper and stamp set from the Felocity collection.
I stamped the image on the paper and then stamped again and cut them out and pop dotted them on to give some dimension.
I also made a little calender that I will post pics and directions in my next post.
