It is so easy and perfect to colour - i have to admit i am really pleased with how this came out, particulary the colouring!

Again simple layout as i wanted to draw attention to the main image. I used the most wonderful 'Doiley Lace Border Punch' from Martha Stewart, look at the detail and all those tiny dots (which are now all over my floor, lol)! It even punches through Bazzill Bling so easily - well worth it!!

Supplies - Paper (from stash not sure on company), Ribbon & SU Punches

Post It Note Holder

Here is a lil something that can be whipped up in just a few minutes, it's the perfect lil gift especially for someone who works in an office! There are quite a few tutorials on the internet to make these, mostly involving chipboard coasters but since i didn't have any to hand i made my own version!

You will need - 1 sheet of 12x12 card (i used white bazzill), 1 sheet of double sided designer paper either 12x12 or 8.5 x11, Binder Clip, Corner Rounder & Post It Notes.

Instructions - Cut your 12x12 cardstock into 4 pieces each measuring 4"x4". Cut two pieces of designer paper into 4"x4". Use your corner rounder on all 4 edges of all 6 pieces. Stick all the card pieces together - this is to help firm up the base. Stick a piece of designer paper to the top of the stack and then stick the other piece using the otherside to the bottom of the stack. Stick your post it notes to the centre of your stack & add binder clip to the top & you're done!

Supplied - Chester MAMBI Paper, Bazzill, Post It Notes, Corner Rounder & Binder Clip.

It only took about 10 minutes to make so it's the perfect lil quick & easy gift bag for any occasion!
