By The Tide Stationery Set

Hello Peeps and welcome back,

Today I have a Stationery Set made using the By The Tide Stamp Set and it matches Tuesday's post.......

I really love this colour combination, it so makes me think of the beach......the sand and the sparkling sea.....

First we have a notebook made using my Bind It All Machine, I have covered the board with Crumb Cake DSP, then I have stamped it with Crumb Cake and Tempting Turquoise Ink using The By The Tide and Gorgeous Grunge Stamp Sets. the little Sea Horse has been stamped, cut out and then covered with Crystal Effects.

There are two sections in this book and I made little dividers to separate the lined paper from the plain paper and of course had to make a pen to match...lol

Then we have a Match Box made with Tempting Turquoise Card and DSP. The shell on the top has been stamped, cut out and then covered with Crystal Effects.

Inside is an assortment of pretty paper clips. I made a belly band to stop the MatchBox opening and spilling out the contents......

Next we have a Post It Note Holder, which has been made using Crumb Cake Card and Tempting Turquoise DSP.

I have used little Velcro dots to hold the pad closed. I think I am going to swap the yellow Post It pad for a blue one..... Note to self, add to shopping list.

To finish the pad off I cut a piece of Whisper White and stamped it with the By The Tide Stamp Set added some Linen Thread and some pearls....Pretty...

Lastly I've made a little Tic Tac Holder with the scraps of card and DSP I had left....so cute...

Then I popped them in the Hand Bag and they are ready to give to my newest recruit to welcome her to my team The Rosebuds....

Summer Silhouettes Stationery Bag

Hey there Peeps and welcome back...

I have been having a lot of fun with the Summer Silhouettes stamp set, it is fast becoming a favourite. So I made this cool stationery set....

So here is the bag, it has a pocket at the front and a pocket at the back. 

There is a Notebook with matching pen, two "just sayin' hello" cards with matching envelopes, a Post It Note Pad Holder and a Match Book Treat Holder.

The bag is really simple to make, it uses an 8 1/2" x 11" piece of Wild Wasabi Card, the pockets are layered Wild Wasabi and Whisper White Card and stamped with Wild Wasabi, Calypso Coral and So Saffron ink using the Summer Silhouettes Stamp Set.

The Note Book I made using my Bind It All Machine, I covered two pieces of stiff card with Wild Wasabi Card added a decorative front panel, cut some pages to go inside and then bound it.

 I decorated the first and last pages inside the book.

I made a co-ordinating pen by adding a piece of stamped card into the pen barrel.

 I made two "Just Sayin' Hello Cards with matching envelopes... using the stamp set Crazy About you for the sentiment.

And no stationery set would be complete without the Post It Note Holder stamped in the same colours. 

I added a little velcro dot to fasten the pad closed when not in use.

And lastly we have a little Match Book Treat Holder for the obligatory chocolate......lol..

So there we have the completed set, next time I think I will make the bag just a little longer so the envelopes can fit in horizontally.....

If you join my team "The Rose Buds" during June 2015 not only will you receive 2 extra stamp sets but I will also send you a Stationery set as well.... Awesome Deal... check out the Join Me tab at the top of my blog for more details or e-mail me or phone me for a chat....I would love to hear from you...
