Stationary

I started my stationary by using sheets of white A5 size paper and A6 envelopes. some ink and stamps.

I started by stamping a branch at the top of the paper then started to stamp the blossoms, I stamped the blossoms 3 times moving the stamp along slightly each time.

I stamped some inspirational wording around the image then repeated the process of the stamping onto the envelope flap.

I stamped my monogram onto a label sheet, these can be found at a stationary shop for printing address and packaging labels. I used the Just Rite Monogram stamp, this is a very handy stamp for wedding and engagement invites.

I punch out the Monogram with a circle punch then peeled off the backing paper and stuck this over the envelope flap to seal it.

Remember When... The Sample Sheet

As you know us crafters are known to not waste a thing so I thought i would show you a DL sized card made from the sample sheet that you get with the La Pashe Remember When... .

I didn't decoupage every piece instead I picked out a select few just to give the card some dimension.

Birds of a Feather - Take Flight

Chocolate and Blue (aqua mist) Not sure of this result but I think it should be shown never the less.

I used the Birds of a Feather and Beautiful Bloom stap sets by PTI and stamped them using Chocolate ink. I used Aqua Mist and Chocolate card stock and Nestabilities Ovals.

Once I stamped the images I applies glossy accents by ranger which give a raised wet look to the stamping.

Hat Pin & Aspire - Penny Black

I inked the Penny Black Aspire stamp with Plum Pudding and Spring Moss by PTI and stamped directly onto the card stock I then scored 2 lines on the Scor-Pal directly underneath the stamped image and wrapped plum pudding grosgrain ribbon around the centre and tied into a knot.

I used a HOTP background paper on the bottom half of the card.

I used a slot punch on white card and stamped the sentiment onto the piece that punched out. I added 2 irridescent pearls to this piece and stuck the home made hat pin through the ribbon to finish.

Instructions on how to make the hat pin can be found here
