Craft Night

Craft Night

19 August 2010

I had a wonderful time with my friend, Dian. She came over for dinner and crafts. It made me so happy when she got excited about making a few cards. Not only did she make the 3 cards I had for her to copy, but she got inspired and created a few cards of her own. It was refreshing to spend time with someone so excited to make cards. I showed her my addiction to craft supplies. LOL Maybe I can lure her over here more often with promises of more craft sessions.

While Dian worked hard on her crafty goodness, I spent the evening making a gift for another friend. I was inspired by Nicole Heady's personalized stationary kit. I personalized 24 notecards and 12 envelopes. Using Kraft cardstock, Amy Butler Designer Series Paper and green scraps (SU I think) I created a darling stationary keeper. I used my SU! Kiwi Kiss and Soft Suede to personalize the Single Note cards with SU! Seeing Spots and Martha Stewart Letters. I stamped all the envelopes. I am really pleased how it turned out.

We spent so much time gabbing and crafting, I totally forgot to take pictures. Dian made several cute cards. She made these hearts with the SU! designer label on top that made the heart look like little angels. I hope to have her over again soon for more carfts and conversation. I can't wait to give this gift away.
