PTI Day 5

Hey all... Here's my entry for the Papertrey Ink 3rd Anniversary Celebration Day 5 contest... The challenge was to use the Emboss Resist Technique... This is the first time I've used it, and I think I will be using it more in the future - thanks Nichole, for the inspiration! I'm SO looking forward to the Make It Mondays that PTI will be featuring in the near future... I'll FINALLY be able to get myself some of the PTI yumminess!

Laters,

Steph

Just because...

Hey all,

Here's my first go at using SU!'s treat cups....but since I wasn't sure how the recipient would feel about various edible candies, I decided to put in some crafty candy instead - a random mix of clear buttons.

And, since I didn't want her to have to tear the card to get the buttons, I made a removeable insert instead...which now can double as a bookmark - no sense in wasting paper! =)

The cherries are all glittered...and I sprinkled some more glitter in the Mod Podge, too. The white ink on the monogram smeared a bit...but I think I like the effect. There was some glow-in-the-dark glitter on the monogram, too - but who knows if it's still there. (I'll test it later!)

Oh, by the way - the funky pointing hand and the cherries are from Bombshell's Cherry Bomb set.

Later!

I've been busy THE RESULTS:

Check it out - cute little mini activity books - X26 by the time I was done with them all... Pink for the girls, Green for the boys... packaged up with a sucker & 4 mini heart crayons... FUN!

Each book includes:
- 8 X stamped images to colour (PaperWorks Co. - various sets)
- 5 X blank sheets for their own artwork
- 3 X plastic sheets (that you can't see on the far right of the above photo) - chock full of stickers - lots of hearts & kisses!

Wow...did my paper cutter & Bind-it-All ever get their respective workouts for this project!
(each book is 2.75X2.75 - with a 5/16 binding wire)

Apparently, I AM insane!
