Our assignment for this week for Fabulous Friday on the Sisters In Stamping blog was to use our favorite stamp set from the Occasions Mini catalog... how do I pick? I love so many of them!! I finally decided on the Valentine Defined set because I was immediately drawn to the flamingo pair image the first time I viewed the catalog. I'm kind of in a Valentine mood anyway, with it coming in just a few weeks! I also had to use the Love Impressions specialty DSP - it is so fun! And for some reason I am totally into pocket cards right now, so that is what I came up with this week. They are so easy to create - cut your card stock in half - 11" x 4-1/4" - and then score at 5-1/2" and also at 9-1/2". The pull out card measures 5-1/4" x 3-3/8".
In addition to the stamp set and DSP from the Occasions mini I just had to include the red glimmer paper (notice the heart on the pull tab?). For a full list of products used with today's project, please see below.
Here is a photo of the inside card pulled out... for my color scheme I used basic gray, whisper white and real red (taken straight from the DSP) and accented with basic black and pretty in pink. This card is one that I'll be featuring in my February workshops - want to book a party? Give me a call!
Don't forget to stop by the Sisters in Stamping blog later today to check out what my "sisters" used as their favorite sets!!
