We are heading off on a 10 week overseas holiday this week.
We have a month in the US, a month in the UK, a side trip for me to Rotterdam, and then 2 weeks in Japan.
During our time away, I have scheduled a small number of posts for my Colour INKspiration projects.
If you want to check out the places we are visiting, pop over to my Facebook page and follow our travels – https://www.facebook.com/michele.miller.927543
I’ll be back with new projects at the end of join.
Until then, happy stamping.
Today I want to share a collection of cards and coordinating gift boxes using the Sweet Thoughts Memories & More Card Pack and Cards & Envelopes.
I also used some of the smaller Memories & More Cards and Envelopes.
These are the two gift boxes that I made ot hold the cards.
Although these Memory & More products are retiring at the end of this month, you can create similar projects with any other Memories & More collections.
Lift the lid and …
For the lid, I used Pretty Peacock cardstock and Forever Love 12″x 12″ Specialty Designer Series Paper. To tie off the boxes I used Pretty Peacock & Gold 3/8″ Metallic Ribbon.
For the large gift box, I made a total of 17 cards.
Using Memories & More products is such an easy way to create quick and easy cards.
This Monday I will be featuring the Layers of Beauty Bundle and Decorative Masks.
Until then, happy stamping.

Welcome to my weekly Wednesday post.
Usually I will try to share the latest Stampin’ Up! news with you – however, if I am scheduling posts in advance I won’t be able to do that. When that happens, I will share updates with you directly on my Facebook business page.
That will definitely need ot happen soon – Rob & I are heading off for a 10 week overseas holiday on April 18th. MY goal, at the moment, is to try and create as many projects and schedule posts, so that while I am away, I can still share with you. Fingers-crossed I can achieve this goal!
For today, I have another Beach Day Bundle project to share with you.
For this card I have created a similar Crumb Cake beach scene with Pecan Pie colour flecks.
This layer was adhered to the Blueberry Bushel card base.
Then I added two palm trees – Pecan Pie trunk and Garden Green fronds.
I added clouds that I cut using the Hot Air Balloon Dies and used Stampin’ Dimensionals to pop them up on the card front.
The seagulls were stamped and cut before adding them to the card front using Mini Stampin’ Dimensionals.
I stamped the surfboard image across several ieces of the Bright & Beautiful 6″x 6″ DSP and then die cut them. Five were adhered to the card front and one each were adhered to the card insert and the back of the envelope.
Finally, I stamped the greeting and trimmed it into sections before adding it to the card front.
Tomorrow I have both a technique card and 3D project to share with you.
Until then, happy stamping.
