An Oldie but Goodie - Updated!

Hi everyone!

A potential customer asked me to make her a sample of gift card holder that lifts the card up when it is opened.  I pulled out this favorite, made an updated sample and sent it off to her.  I thought I would share it with you here.  Sometimes we forget about the older designs, and it's nice to have a reminder from time to time!

Hello stampers!

Well, I am happy to say that my "moving funk" is almost over!  I've really been struggling with the annoyance/depression of missing so many of my stampin' tools that I use every day-even my acrylic blocks!  Every card I've designed recently it seems uses something I don't currently have.  But, that's about to end.  I have started to replace some of the missing things and I've also started creating cards with what I have.  Phew!  I'm glad that's about over!

Today's card is my take on an alternative card I saw using the supplies from the June Paper Pumpkin kit.  But, none of the supplies for this card are from Paper Pumpkin.  I hope you like it!

LOL!

Let's move on to something a little more upbeat.  Among the things that were delivered as expected was the new Perfectly Wrapped Project Kit and coordinating stamp set.  I made it up over the weekend.  Unbelievably cute!!!  Think how your gift recipients would love to get one of these!!!

The kit contains enough supplies to make 4 of each style of bag or box.

This kit would be great for a get together.  If you and 3 friends would like to make this kit, using my stamps and ink, shoot me an email and we'll get it set up.
