A little birdie told me to!

In an effort to use up some more of my stash

I designed this little folio

using one sheet of 12" x 12" paper (SU).

I filled it with my previously made ATCs

along with some new tags and paperclip pockets

and mini notebook.

You can watch a quick walk through here

The gift box is the same as the one I made for

St. Patrick's Day (HERE) and the card is a Teepee one.

Tutorial can be found here.

Dec does triathlons so I covered each side

with swimming, running and cycling.

The papers are from SU along with the stamp set

which is called Do the Impossible.

He is all in to triathlons so that's the theme I went with.

The stamp sets used are mostly retired ones bar

Alphabest, Basic Border dies and postage stamp punch.

I went with a rectangle pop up box card this time.

Our weekend celebrations went well.

Sunday was very wet so umbrellas up to get us

in and out of the chapel and our Grandson

just loved the acoustics and let everyone know he was there 😂

So we have our son's 40th this week and my

daughter's birthday next week.

I am totally exhausted and ready to run away from home lol. 

 

Do the impossible at Tag Tuesday

Our theme over at

TAG TUESDAY

was chosen by Sandie and she wants to see

sports!

I used papers from the in-colour paper pack,

ripping sections to fit my tag,

then layered them on top of each other.

I stamped the image from Do The Impossible

stamp set, coloured her with blends

and added her with dimensionals.

The sentiment was stamped in memento

and chopped up into sections and added

to my tag.

It was finished with a stapled on ribbon

in matching bumblebee.

Our challenge theme this time over at

Tag Tuesday

has been chosen by our lovely

Sandie

and she wants to see Sports related tags.

I got a lovely new punch with the

Elegantly Said Bundle

and decided to make a little mini tag with it.

The stamp set I used is called

Do the Impossible, retired now, but perfect

for my family as they are all very sporty.

I have gone with a swimmer and tied it up

with bermuda bay card and blends.

I have finished it with some matching ribbon.

Tiny little tag but perfectly cute for a small parcel,

and I love the ornate top.

I hope you get time to join in this fortnight.

Scrapbook Thursday

Thursday again and it's time for Grandson Oliver's

March layout.

Just before this virus took hold, Oliver

had joined in the park run and this is a before and after photo.

I thought it would be a nice memory for him!

Not sure if he is going to be a runner but he does love football.

I followed the sketch over at Sketches in Thyme.
