Celebrating Daffodil Delight!

Happy Friday - the weekend is nearly here! (Thank goodness!).

Here is a quick, sunny project for you - it's another one of the cards we made at my class I ran at work (I promise I'll share that in more detail in a separate post).

The card is CASEd (Copy And Share Eveything) from several I saw online. The colours are Daffodil Delight and Basic Grey and the stamp set is Mixed Bunch with the coordinating Blossom Punch. The sentiment is from the Perfectly Penned set.

I received a beautiful big bunch of daffodils from my wonderful friend Louise last week and I managed to photograph them with the card before they started to wither. What a perfect combination!! 

Now I feel even more cheery!

I have another weekend of crafting ahead of me, beginning with our quarterly team training on Saturday which had to be rescheduled from two weeks ago due to the inclement weather!  I'm really looking forward to seeing everyone - it seems like ages since the last one...

Folded pocket note card holder

Here is a very cute and easy little project which is great for using up your designer series papers.  It's usually called a teabag holder because it's the perfect size for holding a teabag or two and makes a really sweet gift.  We were shown how to make this at our team training session but there are loads of videos on YouTube - just search for teabag holder for instructions.

The matching note cards use up more scraps and have a flower stamped using Mixed Bunch and punched out with the Blossom Punch - so quick - a whole stack of these take minutes to make!

The envelopes are made easy with the Simply Scored tool!  I love how you can make your own envelopes that perfectly co-ordinate with your cards - it just adds an extra special touch.

Mouthwatering Stamp Set

At the start of the day we were given a pack of Sweet Shop Designer Series papers, some co-ordinating Jelly Brads also from the Summer Mini Catalogue, and a reel of ruffled ribbon.

It was an exhausting day's crafting but well worth it - such great projects to come home with.  And the reward....

... a well deserved chocolate gold medal!  And I haven't even eaten it yet!
