I spend a lot of time researching ideas on the internet, whether it be for my classes, gifts, items I make for craft sales or just for a personal challenge.
I love to make boxes and when I came across this idea from Sam Donald (UK Stampin’ Up demonstrator) I was inspired, dropped everything and went and made one! It was sooooo cute so when one of the ladies who come to my classes bought along a friend to a class – well she got one too!
There is more to this stamp set than I thought! I chose to use it for my April Card Class and made a really unusual fold card which started with a piece of 12 x 12 card stock! The Hello Darling contains a variety of images which, at first, did not work together for me, but once I started ‘playing’ was able to produce a number of different designs.
I needed to make a ‘thank you’ card for a friend, well you have to cut a piece of 11 x 8 1/2 in 2 pieces to start the card and you already have your stamps, ink and embellishments out, so why not just make up both halves……..
