Ornate Garden Mini Notebooks

What’s keeping you busy these days? I’ve been staying home and staying connected with friends and family. (Thank goodness for technology and crafts!) I learned how to use zoom the other day and had happy hour with 10 of my girlfriends. I am definitely spending more time in my craft room.  Stamping has always been my stress relief! Now, more than ever, I am trying to send more cards to help brighten someone’s day.

Today’s project showcases the new Ornate Garden Specialty Designer Series Paper.  I made these adorable mini notebooks for my customer gifts this month.

I love these beautiful floral patterns! They coordinate perfectly with the Ornate Style Stamp Set.

I stamped the flowers in Early Espresso then used my Stampin’ Blends to color. Each notebook is a little different to coordinate with the Ornate Garden Designer Series Paper. Here’s a close up of each.

The sentiment is from the Floral Phrases stamp set. It has a lot of great sentiments and one I find myself using quite often! I bought these mini notebooks at the Dollar Tree. They are quick and easy to decorate! I cut the DSP 3 x 4 1/2 to start. It’s so easy to just glue the DSP to the cover then trim the edge with scissors. I write notes all the time and keep one of these in my purse.  I use mine for grocery lists and my daily “to do” list. It could even be a mini journal, garden notebook, or prayer book. I wish I had one when I was teaching to jot down the funny things kids say! These make great little gifts to give. I made several for friends for Christmas with a simple monogram.

Do you have a favorite notebook from today? I’d love to hear from you.  Leave a comment letting me know how you’ve been spending your time these days and I’ll pick a random winner to gift one of these mini notebooks.

Mother Goose Punch Art

My husband asked me to buy a baby shower gift and make a card for a coworker. Hmmm…shopping and stamping time for me…that’s a Win! Win!  The teacher in me likes to give books for baby gifts but when I found an adorable Mother Goose that sings nursery rhymes I bought it.  I love to make my gifts and cards coordinate so I pulled out my punches and started playing to make a goose.  This is the card I made.

I used the Bird Builder and Fox Builder Punches to make my goose.  The bonnet was made with the 1″ circle punch and then I freehand cut the brim.  I used Glue Dots to attach the pieces together and then used the Project Life pen to make the eye.   I heat embossed the sentiment from B.Y.O.P. with white embossing powder and added some white organza ribbon around the card and tied a bow. Simple and sweet!

The mom-to-be knows she’s having a baby girl so I used Pink Pirouette card stock and coordinating Designer Series Paper from the Subtles Paper Stack for the layered panel and matching envelope.
