Designer Tote Bags

This Sunday I'm off to the Harcourt Market, me & my friend Debra( also one of my down liners) are having a stall. So we have been very busy crafting away, here are some designer totes I made. I was inspired by the face washer colours & butterfly soaps when I made these.
So if anyone feels like a drive on Sunday come along to the market and say hi.

Shimmer Paint Stamping

Here is another card I CASEd, it's from Becky Roberts, here is her card. I decided to glam mine up by sponging the stamp with crumb cake ink first and then with frost white shimmer paint. Its very pretty and sparkly and you get two different tones depending on how much or little shimmer paint you sponge on the stamp. The newsprint card stock was just very vanilla card stock that i put into my printer and printed out an image i found on the net. I think it was the front page of the new york times from 1908!

Supplies Used

• Card stock-Crumb cake, lucky limeade,wisteria wonder,elegant eggplant,very vanilla
• Stamp set- Elements of style
• Ink-Crumb cake
• Accessories-Frost white shimmer paint,sponge, 5/8" satin vanilla ribbon,jewels,1" circle punch, scallop trim border punch, 1/16" hole punch,little leaves sizzlit die, beautiful wings embosslit die,glue dots,

Chocolate block slider to fit Nestle bars

If you saw the post about my secret sister swap you will remember seeing a choc slider that i received from Angie Jones, well i just had to have a go at making my own so i pulled mine apart very gently and got the measurements from there, so thank you again Angie. Stampin' Up! is all about Inspiring, Creating & sharing.

Cut Designer paper or cardstock @ 8” x 9”

Score long side @ 3 ¾ “, 4 ¼ “, 8”, 8 ½ “

Fold all score lines. Punch out small oval on both sides for ribbon to run through. Run tape along side edge and adhere together. Using about 56cm of ribbon wrap around choc block and pull out the holes, tie together with a smaller bit of contrasting ribbon. Trim edges to make it look like a snakes tongue.

Decorate. I used the fun flower die and tiny tags, Jewelry punch, & dmc thread
