Have a Cuppa Designer Series Paper Stack | Stamp, Scrap & Create with Me

Today’s projects are some that I made for my daughter and her college friends. After all who doesn’t need post its when you’re writing all those college papers, right? I know my desk is littered with all kinds of notes – over the years them become my to do lists. LOL!

I found these cute little note pads at my local dollar spot and knew they would be perfect for the kids. This first one is an easel holder. I wanted to make it look like the notes conversation hearts – so I chose one of the sentiments and stamped it onto So Saffron card stock and then punched it out using my Sweetheart Punch (133786).

I used the soft Wisteria Wonder pattern from the Have a Cuppa Designer Series Paper Stack (140567) to add a bit more umpf. And keeping it soft, I teamed it up with the Mint Macaron and Blushing Bride card stock. The colors once again reminded me of the conversation hearts that have been around forever.

This second little note pad is a bit more elegant and holds the second post it note pad that came in the package – since it only had two little hearts in the corner of the pad I went a bit bolder and used our Birthday Bouquet Designer Series Paper (140655) and pulled the colors Watermelon Wonder and Mossy Meadow for the card stock base.

I then used my Stampin’ Write Markers to color the stamp. I added a third color, Early Espresso, for the words and of course once again the Watermelon Wonder and Mossy Meadow from the In Colors.

I love punches, they make things so easy and my 2″ Circle was perfect for this sentiment. If you’re new to stamping our circles and scallop circles are a great place to start – they’ll make quick and easy focal points such as these!

And the final project for today is a card that uses the Bloomin Love stamp set.

It’s raining once again here in North Georgia so it was tough to get a good photo. I hope you can see the richness of this Gold Embossed heart. Maria used the soft Blushing Bride card stock and teamed it up with our Basic Black for this classic look.

So which is your favorite?

Yesterday I shared the wine charms I made for my Team Winter Retreat and today I’m sharing some of the Shoebox Swap items – Check out these great projects that we made.

This first card was Cindy’s she loves the Subtle Collection of colors and this card defiantly showcases that.

Cindy used the Petite Petals (133152/133155) and Pictorgram Punches stamp set (134261/134264) to create a variety of flowers. She added a bit of layering to create interest and some Stampin’ Dimensionals to add more interest and depth.

The sentiment she used is from our Cottage Greetings stamp set (138940/139962).

Anna used one of my favorite Sale-a-bration stamp sets – Sky is the Limit (141282/141349) and the World Traveler Embossing Folder (138289).

Anna also chose Soft Sky from our Subtles Collection.

This last item is a 3d item and Janette loves creating gift items just like I do!

Cute right? It holds a little note pad. Janette used our Project Life Moments Like These (138740) and the Have a Cuppa Designer Series Paper Stack (140567) and Bermuda Bay 1/8″ Stitched Ribbon (140569) along with the too cute Bow Paper Clips (140559) that are found in the Occasions Catalog.

Sorry about the lighting, I was having problems today with photos since we are expecting a winter weather event here in North Georgia and it is really over cast.
