Gift Bags

I designed these bags to hold everything my class attendees needed to make our class projects—with a few extras. More enamel shapes than needed. Bobbins of Thick Twine. Larger pieces of scraps for cutting than required. And envelopes for their cards. The bags were perfect for carrying home their completed cards as well. This project provided an opportunity for me to use up some retired Hello Honey designer series paper. I used one half sheet for each bag (6" x 12"), scoring ½ inch inside one 6-inch edge and one 12-inch side for the Tear & Tape adhesive. I then folded the paper in half (up to the scored line).

Selling Fun Stamp Sets

Image
I have hung on to so many great stamp sets. I'm am concluding my burst of sales for now. I have more that I should sell and quite a few older sets that need to go, but this week of posts is enough for now. "Timeless Talk" (now $8.00) was one of those fun sets that worked for both genders. "Kind & Cozy" is so much my style! But I'm selling it for $8.00. Since I'm known for my love of tea, these next two stamp sets received a great deal of use. "Tea Shoppe" can be yours for just $14.00. Finally, "Tea Party" is going for $6.00.

Miscellaneous Stamp Sets for Sale

Still busily uploading pictures of stamp sets I'm selling. The first set, "Four Frames", was used a lot but is in great condition. It coordinates with the "Decorative Label" punch, which is available in our current catalog and is just $8.00. Another versatile stamp set is "Bordering Blooms", available for $8.00. "Corner Garden" was so much fun to color (or paint on watercolor paper)! Made very simple cards, even uncolored. I'm asking $7.00 for this stamp. Of Scottish heritage, living in grape country and even musical, "Nature's Pace" was a perfect fit for me! But I'm just not using it anymore; too many current stamp sets in my collection. So I am reluctantly selling it for just $9.00-- SOLD . "Everything Eleanor" was great for some elegant cards. This set is going for $13.00.
