Geared Garage Layered Tunnel Card

I started to create a couple of cards for my husband's birthday, this is the first one. A Layered Tunnel Card using the Geared Up Garage Stamp Set and the Garage Gears Thinlits. My husband is right into cars so he will love this one. I cut out the cogs with some silver foil cardstock and colored the images with my Blends. I love doing the layered tunnel inside the card, gives it a great 3D look.

Gift Box

These were so much fun to make and are perfect for swaps or a small gift, inside these boxes I have a pocket packet of tissues. I made quite a few of these using different DSP, a great way to use up any retired DSP you may have lying around. In this particular picture below I have used the following DSP: Christmastime Is Here, Mosiac Mood and Floral Essence.

Shadow Box Frame

I created this Shadow Box using the Free As A Bird Stamp Set for a very good friend of mine as a gift  for always being there for me on my tough days and good. I hope she likes it, when the new catalogue came out in June last year this was her favourite set so here's hoping. It's been a long time creating this project and in the end if you are thinking of making one I strongly suggest you create everything for your layout first and just see where everything looks best and start creating.

CD Writing Set

This is my team swap I did for the team I'm on for the Stampin Up Conference this month in Sydney. I created a Writing Set by using a Stampin Up CD Case, inserting some DSP in the cover. I decorated a writing pad and adhered it to the inside of the case with adhesive magnetic sheets so it can be removed to use. I added a small pocket on the left hand side with a 2020 calender.

Nature's Beauty

I thought I'd share some of my swaps I have been making for the November Stampin Up Onstage in Sydney. For my first swap I have made some cards using the Nature's Beauty Stamp Set and the Feels Like Frost Designer Series Paper. I like to use up all my Christmas Designer Series Paper before it becomes retired so this was a great opportunity to use the Feels Like Frost DSP. My favourite is the Deer with the backdrop of the Feels Like Frost DSP.
