Parade of Papers


Sorry you missed the blog tour!
Throughout the month of May, buy three packs of Designer Series paper (including our Specialty Designer Series paper) or 12" x 12" textured card stock and get one FREE!

First is the Scrapbook layout I made using the Parisian Breeze Specialty Designer Series Paper.

The lovely matching Baja Breeze Corduroy Buttons and Flower from the Pretties kit make it easy for even a novice like me to make a pretty page! The letters were colored with White Craft ink mixed with Baja Breeze Classic ink…I ended up with a lighter color, but I liked that. Photography by Kathryn Varner, Edmond, Oklahoma.
Paper: Parisian Breeze Specialty Designer Series Paper, Old Olive and Whisper White Card Stock
Ink: Baja Breeze Classic Stampin' Pad plus Chocolate Chip and Old Olive Stampin' Write Markers
Accessories: Baja Breeze Corduroy Buttons, Pretties Kit, Kraft Taffeta Ribbon, Big Shot Baskets & Blooms Die (Tag), Mini Glue Dots, Corner Rounder and Scalloped Square Punches, Dimensionals, Tombow Multi-Purpose Adhesive, Scalloped Edge Punch, On Board Loads of Letters, White Craft Ink Refill, Baja Breeze Classic Ink Refill, Printer and Ink

This Scallop edged Mother's Day Card was fun to make. It was also the first time I used the Circle Scissor cutting system from Stampin' Up!

Papers: Parisian Breeze Specialty Designer Series Paper, Whisper White and Chocolate Chip Card Stock
Ink: StazOn, Chocolate Chip and Stampin' Write Markers
Accessories: Circle Scissors, 1-1/4 and Scallop Circle Punch, and Chocolate Chip Taffeta Ribbon

This is a month by month card organizer you've probably seen many times, but since these are my favorite colors I had to include it!
Paper: Parisian Breeze Specialty Designer Series Paper, Chocolate Chip Card Stock
Accessories: Kraft Taffeta Ribbon, Filigree Designer Brads, Corduroy Baja Breeze Button, Big Shot Flower, Daisies #2 Bigz Die

Here is a Father's Day card in which I used the Emboss Resist Technique.
Stamps: Thoughts of Father, Happiness is a Journey
Papers: Parisian Breeze Specialty Designer Series Paper, Chocolate Chip and Kraft Card Stock
Ink: Chocolate Chip Classic and Craft Ink pads
Accessories: Clear Embossing Powder, Sponge, Wide Chocolate Chip Grosgrain Ribbon, Linen Thread

This is a little Stationery Folio in a monochromatic color scheme...It would make a great gift if I can manage to give it away :) .Details-Instructions-Stampin’ Addicts Monday 3-D challenge (3/16/09)

Papers: Parisian Breeze Specialty Designer Series Paper, Baja Breeze and Whisper White Card Stock

I used the scalloped and crimped edging technique created by JanTInk-Thanks for sharing!!


Next is a purse made with the Once Upon a Time Purse Template available to demonstrators on the Stampin' Up! website. Guess what fits perfectly inside?

Ten Embosslits or Sizzlits dies!

Papers: Parisian Breeze Specialty Designer Series Paper
Accessories: Craft Magnets, Daisies #2 Bigz Die, Flower Designer Brad and Baja Breeze Striped Grosgrain Ribbon, SU! Template, 2 Pop Up glue dots to secure brad
