These beautiful papers along with many others will disappear from our catalogue in just a few days. I've loved this paper pack it's lent itself to so many projects and it's worked particularly well with this 'dress' card. I've seen this idea on several blogs and have so wanted to have a go. Finally time has been available and I've done it. I've also used the soon to retire modern label punch for the handbag. It's a really super punch and can be used in so many ways just like all our other punches. You'll notice that the skirt is made using the scallop circle die with the Big Shot and there's some itty bitty buttons and pearls in there too to add that little bit of luxury that every girl needs on her favourite frock.
This is a project that we made at craft club, thanks to the lovely Dorothy who showed us how to make it. Much to the delight of everyone there I made a real mess of mine and so having learnt how to do it I remade it at home once again using these wonderful papers. Perhaps the papers will not be appropriate, but the idea could be adapted as a gift for a male teacher which works out well for me as Charlie has just that this year and they really don't appreciate pretty gift bags filled with notelets!
If you've enjoyed using some of our designer series papers and want more remember that they will all disappear on 30 September. Jolly Holiday is already sold out, but you can check the availability of all the retiring products over at the Stampin' Up! website
here and you can view the current catalogues by clicking on the side bar icons on the right of my blog.
More soon.
