How Cute Is This

Book Clip?

Remember that Special Stampin' Up! Workshop I did back in early September?  Well, one of the perks for those guests who attended was a gift from SU.  Each guest got a free Annual Catalog & Hoiday Catalog.  That's nice enough, but they were wrapped together with about 48 inches of 7/8" Cotton Ribbon, it's YUMMY!  You can find that in the Holiday Catalog. 

Clipped to the front of the book was the cutest flower.  I knew I would have to share with you this adorable idea.

Front....below is the side and back views

The pieces are cut from the Flower Punch & 1/2" Circle Punch.  All clued together using our Multipurpose Liquid Glue and, of course, a regular paper clip!  Cute huh?

Here's what the wrapped book looked like

It doesn't seem like it would be that much ribbon, but it's wrapped around twice....totally gonna steal this idea for my Hostess Lunch next spring.   They love that they get the new catalog first and now it will be even more special!

Until Next Time . . .

to inspire your Spirit

As a Christian, I choose not to work on Sunday.  Although my blog is scheduled and I am not actually creating this post today; I still have a strong belief that we all need to take a break for the Sabbath Day.  Each week my Sunday post will change from inspiring your creativity, to inspiring your spirit.  I hope you enjoy the messages presented here each week.

EZ Brag Book Idea

Flash  Them

Photos....FAST!

Here's a fun idea.  Create a quick brag book for yourself, or a friend.  It's created using the awesome Stampin' Up! clear envelopes (you get 50 for just $4.50).  The top (seal tab) is cut off and it makes a great little 4 x 5 sleeve for photos.  Holes are punched and feed through 1.25" rings from an office supply store.

Here are some page ideas to start your creative process.

The Midnight Muse card stock is inside the envelope, while

the title banner is on the outside (use Sticky Strip to hold in place).

I love how Jen added 1/2" punched out dots from different colors of card stock to the Summer Starfruit with white dot paper.  Nice touch huh?  The 'E' is also on the outside of the envelope.  Cute Kid too!

Like the strip?  It's also done with card stock!  1/2" wide.

Tag is hand cut w/circle punched for reinforcement and of course those cute hearts down the side.  I don't know who the Barton Family is...but they are cute aren't they?!

Like that "B"?  It's simple.  The letter was cut using the Big Shot and the Typeset Alphabet.  Lay the cut letter onto Whisper White card stock and spray the color over the top using any color you want to make with a re-inker, some rubbing alchol and our cool new Stampin' Spritzer.  You get TWO for just $2.95  WOW!  Just take off the letter when your done and VIOLA!

These samples were created by Jen from SU Corporate.  THANKS JEN!!  I hope they inspired you to make your own cute brag book!
