July 2010 Papertrey Blog Hop 2

This is my entry, Yvette, for the PTI July Bloghop. I was inspired to do this set by Laurel Seagrave. Her notecard inspired me to use my damask stamps from PTI. My set includes: a birthday calendar, tin paper-clip holder, notecards with stationery box, wall hanging and matching notepad. All items can be placed in my gable box as a wonderful gift box. I will also give you the details on how I made each of these items when I post again. Office supplies used are: paper-clips, binder ring to hold wall hanging and birthday calendar, and a paper pad. Take a look and enjoy!!

Get Well

Lately we have had a few sickies in the group so I have needed some get well cards.
I used my Lockhart stamp for this task and colored it with my prismacolor and SU markers. I know they would have blended better with Copics but right now they just cost too much and I WANT so many other things.

I cut it out with my Oval nestabilities and embossed.
The base of the card is Kraft cardstock with a blue mat from Michaels bazzill cardstock
The gingham paper is from Kay and Co and the plaid I could not find a name on the paper so I dont know who makes it.
The orange ribbon is from the dollar spot at Target and the buttons are from my stash
The get well sentiment is a PTI stamp stamped in SU Chocolate chip. The tag I just cut by hand since I didnt have anything that size.
I dont need Copics!!! I dont need Copics !!!
I hope you liked my card.

First Communion

Since my sister and I have decided to join the blogging world I hope you enjoy our first post and follow us. This weekend was my son's 1st Communion and these are the invitations I created for the occasion. I wanted simple yet masculine. I wish I could capture in the photograph how pretty they really were in person....
