Open House Success!

My Open House yesterday was a huge success! Thank you all for coming. It is always a treat for me to see everyone & share my passion of stamping with you. Now, for those of you who are not local, I can share with you, the projects that I have been working on.

This is a little Top Note Treat Pouch. So simple, and cute. Great for school, work, friends or neighbors. This could also work for other occasions, like shower or birthday favors.

Using the Big Shot, cut 2 Top Notes from your cardstock, score & fold about an inch down from the top of one. Cut a third Top Note from printed paper, and trim off at the perforation. Cut this one in half, you can get 2 of these from one Top Note. I used one of Ruby Red Patterns from the Patterns Pack Designer Series Paper III Hostess Set Level 1. This is a 6x6 paper pack great for cards and small projects like this one. Adhere printed paper to front of scored Top Note. Using Sticky Strip adhere to three sides only, leaving top open to form your pouch. The scallop is from the Love You Much Stamp Set. I stamped it twice, punched it out with the Scallop Circle Punch, and then punched the center out with the 1-1/4" Circle Punch. Then I punched a 1-3/8" Circle from Ruby Red Cardstock and added that layer in between the two stamped images. I finished it off by tying on some White Grosgrain Ribbon.
