Writing Paper and matching envelope gift folder with a pen

Hi

Today I want to share with you this paper and envelope gift folder that I've made. I think it would be great to gift to someone.

It'd be nice to maybe write a thank you note for a present received from someone.

I hand stamped every page of the notepad and again on the front of the envelopes. The pad is A6 in size and has 30 sheets I think ( I got it in a multipack of 4 for £1 from The Range) and I've got 10 envelopes in mine.

I will leave a link to the video tutorial below.

Also here is a list of the supplies I used:

Card measuring 11" x 7 1/2" score on the long side at 5 1/8" and 5 7/8" and fold to create the cover

DSP to decorate the cover- 4 pieces measuring 7 1/4" x 4 7/8"

Card measuring 3/4" x 7 1/4" to hold the notepad

Card (for pen holder) to measure 2" x 1 7/8" score on the short side at 3/8", 3/4", 1 1/8" and 1 1/2"

Copier paper (for envelopes)- 10 pieces measuring 6 1/2" x 6 1/2"

Envelope punch board

Stamp set of your choice ( I used Petal Palette for one and Watercolour words for the ones above)

Embellishments to decorate

Ribbon to secure the envelopes.

I hope you like this project.

Myths and Magic travellers notebook

Hi everyone

I hope you are well and having a good day.

I'm super excited about today's project!!

I just love the whole Magic and Myths suite that is available in the spring/ summer catalogue. From the 1st time I saw it I just knew I had to have them haha.

This is my 1st time making a travellers notebook and I love how it's turned out. It's so easy to do too and a great way to showcase those gorgeous papers. I used the matching stamp and die set to do the mermaid, seahorse and unicorn along with my Stampin blends to colour them in, then I added some wink of stella.
It would be so easy to alter the measurements depending what size note books you get.

On the tutorial I said I got the notebooks from Boots for £3 for 4....this was a mistake and they were actually 3 notebooks for £1 in the sale. I don't edit my videos so that's why I wanted to tell you the correct price on here.

I will leave below the measurements and all products I used:

Magical Day stamp set
Magical Mates framelits dies
Myths and Magic speciality DSP
Stampin Blends
1/8" handheld punch
Elastic cord (from my stash)
Laminator

Cover for notebooks
DSP measuring 8 1/4" x 5 1/2"

Outside cover
DSP measuring 8 1/4"x 5 1/2" score on the long side at 3 3/4", 4", 4 1/4" and 4 1/2"

For full instructions I've done a tutorial on YouTube, I will leave the link below.

I hope you like this project as much as I do and thanks for looking.

Xmas socks gift box with acetate front

Hi everyone

I'm back today with this beautiful gift box. I bought a pair of cosy socks from my local pound shop and decided to make a gift box for them.

I really love how you can take something so little and turn it into something beautiful with the right packaging.

I have used the Merry Music DSP, foil snowflakes, gold foil, black shimmer ribbon and the gold faceted gems...all of which are available from Stampin Up.

I have done a video tutorial showing you how I made this project...please find the link below.
