I was asked to donate something for a teacher auction that they are having at my girls' school this week, so I decided to do a fun card set. I have always wanted to try one of the card workshops that are in the Wishes book - this was the perfect chance! I used the Just Because workshop starting on page 68, which creates 20 cards, but since I didn't have enough time to do all of them {since I put this project off until the morning it was needed ;-P } I just did the first 8. I was trying to get 10 done but ran out of time, and it's a good thing because I could barely get 8 cards and envelopes in the pouch. Here is the complete set - using the Emporium paper, a favorite of mine!
Speaking of the pouch, I created that from a 6x6 page protector, I just cut off the edge with the holes and added a fun flap that closes with velcro.
I used a mix of stamp sets, with some sneak peeks at some upcoming SOTM sets, so here are the individual cards and coordinating envelopes...
...I'll show you my favorite first - this one uses the upcoming January SOTM - True Friends, along with a heart from the Dazzling Die-Cuts, and I changed some gold brads by heating them and dipping them in Cocoa Embossing Powder
...this one uses the Felicity stamp set
...this one uses the upcoming March SOTM - A Little Everything
...this one uses the Felicity stamp set and a Dazzling Die-Cut tag
...this one uses the upcoming February SOTM - Piece of Cake
...this one uses the Felicity stamp set and another Dazzling Die Cut for the letter 'U'
...this one uses the Happy Birthday stamp set and another heart Dazzling Die-Cut for the card and February SOTM - Piece of Cake for the envelope
...this one uses the upcoming April SOTM - Flower Pot
Thanks for looking!
