Simone (RRP-003) – Toodles & Binks Challenge

Toodles & Binks recently set a challenge to use some packaging leftover from Christmas, or something you didn’t want or need, and this is my belated entry.

• Stamp:  Simone (RRP-003) from Toodles & Binks from Stamp Galaxy
• Stamp: SU Hand Stamped set
• COPIC markers:  E00, R20, RV11, RV09, E31, N7, N5, E57, G99, YG03 (the names are of these colours are on my COPIC colour page)
• Tuxedo Black Moment Dye Ink
• Black Prism cardstock
• White Prism cardstock
• Basic Grey “Infuse” 6 x 6 paper pack from Stamp Galaxy
• Cuttlebug
• Nesties & Cuttlebug dies
• Scor-pal
• Scallop border punch (SU)
• Prima Crazy Daisy “Jasmine”
• Zip Dry Glue

A lot of crafters are now decorating the backs and insides of the cards, and this is my first (poor) attempt at it, but the insert gallery option is playing up, so I’m giving up and not showing that!!!!

 

Money Holders (thanks to Kit)

 

My friend Kit sent me a lovely tutorial for a money holder, and I quickly made to (not quite the same as hers – as I am rubbish it seems at following exact instructions!), this evening for the two of our Godchildren.

Check out her blog for the tutorial, and also just below it are some fabulous Toodles & Binks projects, that I haven’t had time to upload yet.

I still have tons of wrapping, gift boxes and the main food shopping to do, I ticked a bit off today, but can’t get up much enthusiasm…… that is apart from a bit of Retail Therapy…… I bought a nice small tote for my COPIC markers on line.  My COPIC folders are now completely full up,  and I have some markers kicking around on the desk, so I needed something more – especially as I think I may have more colours coming on Christmas Day. 

The tote is a yummy chocolate brown with soft pink dots – and the markers will sit just below the top of it, and as it has dividers they shouldn’t fall all over the place – it can then (with a bit of tidying and re-gigging) sit on my desk.  I can then use the COPIC folders for travelling.

Simone (RRP-003) Pizza Box Project

 

I am working on a detailed project sheet for this, and will post it on the Toodles & Binks blog later on today, but thought I’d share in the meanwhile.

Joel Tag (RRP-002)

 

Woohooo, my Cuttlebug Swiss Dots folder arrived yesterday, and I got a chance to play with it today.

I’ve had a layered/stitched tag kicking around on my desk for bloomin’ ages, and so I wizzed it through with the folder, what a difference it makes – how have I lived without one all this time!
