In todays times we need to make our dollars stretch as much as we can.  That’s why I love this project and 3×3 cards.  We made at Janice’s meeting.

rasberry-tart-box-cardsYou can get 8 cards out of just one sheet of 12 x 12 paper.  This box is made with just a 1/2 of a sheet of 12 x 12 paper.  Each card uses just a tiny bit of dSP.  You can make 32 cards with just one sheet of paper.  They are fast and simple to make.  I love that they are easy and so nice to have on had when you need a quick note for a gift or just to show you care.  For a fun gift you can make the box and put 4 cards in it with envelops.  It’s easy and fast but someone will really feel special when they receive it.

For this project we used:

113975 Raspberry Tart DSP $9.95
113417 Petal Pizzazz $32.95
113716 Garden Greetings $21.95
109043 Scallop Circle Punch $15.95
114338 Kiwi Kiss Corduroy Buttons $9.95

If you would love to come and learn how to make this fun box then be sure to mark your calanders for my Sale-a-brations Stamp Camp.  It will be on Saturday February 28th.  We will be making this box using the Polka Dot Punches Stamp Set and Delicate Dots Designer Series Paper from the Sale-a-bration Flyer.  Click here for more details.

Marvelous Monday 1-26-09

We always get to do a fun make and take at leadership.  This year I really loved what we got to make because it all coordinated together.  It is part of our retro fresh style watch.  It uses the fun new stamp set Good Friend #113740 $28.95.  It also uses the On board So Tweet #113893 $14.95 and the DSP Good Morning Sunshine #113966 $9.95. 

good-friends-mini-box-tagsWe made a fun box that slides out and holds these great mini tags.

good-friend-cardsPlus we made 3 fun cards.  They are 5 1/4 square cards that fit in our square envelops.  I love this great big size. 

good-friend-box1Everything fits nicely in the fun carrying case.  Arent’ the birds just so cute.

I’m considering offering this as a class.  I haven’t decided on a date yet, but if you are interested please let me know and I will get one figured out.  The class would include everything you need to make all three projects plus you would get all the extras.  You would get 1/2 of the designers series paper and 1/2 of the chipboard.  I would also include the stamp set.  This class could easily be done at home as well and I would include full color instructions.  The cost would be $55.00 (including the stamp set).  Please email me at andersoncandice@hotmail.com if you are interested.
