Back page….and finished!

Back page

This page is an absolutely gorgeous way to complete the album. I have wheeled using ‘So Swirly’ with basic black ink, used sponges and daubers to colour the whisper white cardstock. The sentiment used is from the ‘Seaworthy’ stamp set and have used brads on the four corners and then mounted it onto Rose red cardstock and basic black.

I thank you for visiting my blog and hope you have enjoyed sharing this album I made. I would like to thank Sharon once again for the inspiration and the design and concept. I am very grateful and have now made a couple as gifts; they are the best gift I believe you can receive. Goodnight :)

I haven’t been dropping in as much. I have had a week which was flat out and was not well on top of that and it got even better this morning when I closed the car door on my finger :( many tears appeared and as we do we keep on soldering on….

Will drop back in tomorrow. Thanks for visiting…..

Gift box and bag…..

21/06/2009 at 8:09 pm (Cards and 3D ideas)

After I made the album I thought I should put it into something so it wouldn’t get ruined. When I am in doubt as to what to do I email my great friend Sharon who always has the best ideas. Sharon suggested I make a box out of 12″x12″ cardstock and use a clear lid, so that is what I did.

Box with album inside

To make the box I actually got the cardboard that comes with the Stampin’ Up! designer series paper and scored where necessary. I then covered it with retired Stampin’ Up! DSP on the back and used Basic Black cardstock which I used the So Swirly wheel using the White ink.

Side of box

To hold the box together I used Stampin’ Up! Jumbo Eyelets

Back of box

This is the DSP I used for the back of the box.

Close up of inside box

This picture is a close up of the inside of the box with the album inside. As you can see the clear lid gives it a great effect.

Decorated gift bag

Instead of wrapping up the gift in wrapping paper I used a white gift bag and used the So Swirly wheel and used the dauber and sponges using the Rose Red ink. I used the Jumbo eyelets again at the top of the bag to thread through the ribbon to hold the bag closed. I stamped her name with Rose Red ink using the Big Deal Alphabet.

The party went well, it was a surprise party and it was definetly a surprise for her. She loved the album, she was a little intoxicated by the time I was able to give it to her so she would probably enjoy it more today, (to be 21 again!!! I am only in my early 30’s and I felt really old at this party….)

Birthday card…

19/06/2009 at 4:37 pm (Cards and 3D ideas)

I got so caught up in the album I nearly forgot to make a birthday card. I have kept with the same theme using the Stampin’ Up Priceless stamp set and So Swirly wheel. I didn’t go with plastering 21 on it, she knows she is 21 I don’t need to remind her…lol.

Front and envelope

Inside card

Products used: All Stampin’ Up. I did use some retired products as I still have some and they need to be used. The card stock is Purely Pomegranate and so is the wide satin ribbon and silver eyelets. The remaining is all in the current Stampin Up catalogue. Cardstock: Black, Whisper white. Ink: Rose Red, Basic black. Stamp sets: Priceless, On your Birthday. Wheel: So Swirly and as you can see I love using daubers or spounges to give colour to the edges. 

Have a good weekend. Will let you know what Eloise thinks of her album, off to her party tomorrow night into the city.
