R2G Card Kits - SU - Believe

Here's my next Stampin Up Ready 2 Go Card kit.  Again, I selected Winter Frost Designer Paper. I cut the DSP to 2.12 x 5.5 inches. I chose Pool Party card stock onto which I put stamps from Snowflake Soiree set, The snowflake in Smoky Slate and Believe in Bermuda Bay. I adhered the DSP layer it to the bottom of the landscape card. I then adhered a .5 x 5.5 inch strip of Whisper White over the edge of the DSP.  I added 3 rhinestones in clear and warm blue with Bling Zots to the right hand side of the white strip.

Card - Green Paint Chip

In honour of St. Patrick's day a green card.  I started with a paint chip from the hardware store.  I stamped a set of leaves with a border by Magenta onto the paint chip.  I used Versafine Black Onyx ink which did not seem to dry onto the chip so I clear embossed the stamping. The greeting is a small clear stamp.  I layered the paint chip with a layer of white then onto a green card.  I added 3 black snaps in the bottom right hand corner to balance the elements.
If you have been renovating you may have some paint chips leftover which can be put to good use in your card making.  Take a look around.

Cool Tool - 12x12 drawers - Paper Storage

I use these 12x12 drawer units for patterned paper storage. I have 2 units which gives me 8 drawers. One unit holds paper sorted by color. The other holds other paper like Christmas paper, Specialty paper like acetate, vellum, glitter etc, multicolored paper and one drawer for scraps of patterned paper.  It works for me because I can see the paper.  When the scraps drawer gets too full I go through it and purge.  I bought the units at Walmart.  The labelling is not too sophisticated and I should replace them with clear labels now that I have a label maker.  One day soon.
