Simply Said note block

Because my favourite colour is Purple I did another card & gift for Abi's Funky Friday Challenge #25, and I love it so much I'm keeping it!!

I used:
Whisper White love note
Simply Said stamp set
Black Stazon ink
Stampin' Pastels
Blender Pen
Whisper White & Orchid Opulence card
Scallop Edge, Scallop Oval & Oval punches
1/16" punch
Note block
Pen

I bought some note blocks from my local Post Office and they each had several colours of paper in them, so I put each colour together in each holder so they could be co-ordinated.
I then used my 1" circle punch to cut the corner off each page to make room for a pen. I must have been mad but it was worth it as we're always searching for a pen in our house! lol
I didn't stamp every page, just the first 20 or so, but I'm using the unstamped ones first! ;)

Thanks for looking!
Kathy.

Season Of Joy- Red

I did this card for Abi's Funky Friday#24 challenge, we needed to use Rose Red & Whisper White.

I Used:
Rose Red & Whisper White card
Rose Red ink
Season of Joy stamp set
Corner Rounder, Scallop Oval & Oval punches
Clear sticky gems

I didn't realise until I'd finished it that is was very similar to Abi's!
Sorry Abi, I didn't mean to case yours, but the poinsetta stamp was perfect for the colour challenge, so I guess great minds think alike!
You might have noticed I've also stamped the envelope, I like to do this so the recipient might open it first!

Thanks for looking!
Kathy.

Cause for Celebration

This card was for Abi's Funky Friday #25 challenge.
We needed to use Orchid Opulence, Basic Black & Whisper White.

I used the Cause for Celebration hostess set
Orchid Opulence, Basic Black & Whisper White card
Scallop edge punch
Basic Black ink
and some black & clear sticky gems

Thanks for looking!
Kathy.
