100 Books In A Year Reading Challenge 2011!

Some thing a bit non-crafty, but I also love to read and just came across this challenge on Book Chick City, even though it's already half way through the year I thought I would give it a go.  See if I can remember which books I have already read this year.

if you love reading too, check it out!!

Vintage One Sheet Wonder

I held a workshop last night and this is the project that everyone got to make using Stampin' Up! Vintage Vogue stamp set.  We made four cards using a one sheet wonder layout and then a little magazine folder to hold them.

Stamp Sets: Vintage Vogue & Short & Sweet

Card Stock: Basic Black, Very Vanilla, Crumb Cake & Riding Hood Red

Ink: Basic Black, Crumb Cake & Riding Hood Red

Punches: Scallop Edge Border Punch, Large Oval Punch & Scallop Oval Extra Large Punch

Mini Handbags

Yesterday I was looking for a little bag template that you could make incorporating the Stampin' Up! Top Note die for the big shot.

When I came across these little handbags I thought they used the Top Note for the top but I discovered that it is all a printable template and actually a lot smaller than the Top Note, I couldn't resist having a go at making a couple and here are my finished products.  You can find the template for these cute bags here: melstampz.blogspot.com
