3x3 cards and tote


As a raffle prize for my recent open house, I decided to make some 3x3 note card. I made a little "tote" bag to hold them.  I designed the note cards and tote around the Paisley Petals DSP. Using the DSP as my focal point was great because it gave me an awesome selection color combos to work with.


I got the idea for this little 3x3 tote from the SplitCoast Stampers resource gallery. Their site is full of wonderful ideas, techniques, and tutorials!

This little tote was made with Early Espresso CS. I used the dotted scallop ribbon border punch for the handle, and scallop trim border punch for the edges of the tote. I accented the front and back with Paisley Petals DSP layered over Always Artichoke cardstock.

Then I used a sentiment from the Oval All stamp set, which coordinates perfectly with the large oval punch and scallop oval punch.






Materials and colors used include: River Rock CS Marina Mist CS; Not Quite Navy CS, Whisper White CS; Paisley Petals DSP, Watercolor Trio stamp set (retired); Four Frames stamp set; Teeny Tiny Wishes stamp set; Large Oval punch, decorative label punch, scallop square punch, word window punch, scallop trim border punch, beautiful wings embosslit, silver hodgepodge, Chantilly lace ribbon
