Enjoy the warmth of the season

Today I have created a gift card holder and card in one. It was an idea I got from Dawn Griffith. 

I just love the copper and merry merlot colours together and the designer series paper gives it a classy edge. 

The left hand side of the card is taped down on the edges leaving a gap for the gift card to be added. I love the sentiment too. 



The written note can either be added under the gift card or on the back. 

I am off to make some more, Christmas is fast approaching and my gift list seems to be getting longer not shorter!

Onstage Team Swaps

I still have more Onstage photos to share with you!

As so many of my extended team were attending Melbourne Onstage I wanted to organise a team swap. This was the first time I had met all of them so it was a nice way to share time together. They are all such gorgeous and talented girls!

One of the girls on the team, Nikki printed us our very own team t-shirts. Our team name is Stampers Anonymous and our logo is a mouse. Don't they look great! We were nice and easy to spot in the crowd :)





These are the swaps I made. Each bag holds a lip balm key ring that you can attach to your handbag or tote so you can easily find your lip balm. I was asked if I made these myself but alas I am not one for sewing - these were found on Ebay.  

I added a little mouse charm too to continue with the theme. 



The quality of the swaps I received were amazing - there is so much talent in our team!

Onstage Swaps Melbourne 2018

At the Onstage events swaps are encouraged - it is a great way to meet people and get some fantastic swaps in return full of ideas and inspiration. Basically we all wander around the room and exchange cards/projects.  

These are the swaps I took with me to Melbourne. I found these cute origami pins on ebay and knew they would go with the Artfully Folded stamp set. Each year we wear lanyards and I seem to have amassed a collected of badges so now I pin them on my own lanyard.

I had a mix of gold and silver pins and couldn't decide on a colour scheme so i went with a few of my favourites - Coastal Cabana, Poppy Parade, Melon Mambo and Highland Heather.

Using the layering circle framelits made assembly of 65 of these quick and easy. And I just love the sentiment - be your own kind of beautiful.





Here's a close up view of one.



Next time I will show you the amazing swaps I received in return!

Team Gift Bags

I still have so much to share with you from the Melbourne Onstage Event. It is so lovely when my team members are able to join me and this year I had two - Kylie and Jo-Ann. 

I found these cute (but plain) black bags that I thought would be fantastic for holding all our swaps. 

As Jo-Ann is a super talented sewer as well as papercrafter I asked her if she could decorate them with our team  logo - we are The Happy Camper Stampers!! 

I think she excelled herself don't you? She even personalised them with our colours - mine is green with a leaf pattern to match my blog. How thoughtful is that? 

    

I was able to fit some special gifts in there for them too! 





I love giving gifts don't you?

Stampers Anonymous Team Blog Hop

Hello and welcome to our Stampers Anonymous team blog hop! Stampers Anonymous is the team name for Marelle Taylor's team of which I am a very proud member!  

Here is the sketch challenge that was issued to us. 



I took the sketch quite literally and created a card showcasing one of my all time favourite designer series papers - Frosted Floral. This paper has a beautiful pearl shimmer to it and a lovely texture. 

With this sketch I was able to showcase the paper in all its glory!

The sentiment comes from the Country Home stamp set, I love the wording and the fonts. And there are so many people in my life that I am very grateful for including my Stampin' Up! family.   





Here is a close up of the card to show the added elements - vellum and glimmer paper leaves. 



Keep on hopping through the blog to see all the creative talent our team has to offer.
