I could hardly wait to get back from the Reading Stampin' Up! Training day as they showed us lots of possibilities for the Simply Scored Tool and the newly released Diagonal plate (which does what it says on the tin - gives you diagonals and the possibility of making ANY size of envelope you wish). I have always been a sucker for stationary but the thought of being able to make my own co-ordinating envelopes to match the cards I make is simply irresistible - as you can see above!
I won't really describe the Designer Papers here as they are retired, but the turquoise flower made the cutest 3" card - and by the time I sent the card it too had a scallop trim punched envelope flap - well, it would wouldn't it - hee hee hee!
I couldn't resist making a matching card to go with the larger envelope, here using the Eyelet border punch, Celery ink and Grosgrain ribbon, the fabulous stamp from the Creative Elements set, Butterflies from the Beautiful Wings embosslit and then a couple of Rhinestones for a little sparkle!
Hope to get my blog updated with the creative things I've been up to - just need a few extra hours in the day and I would be ahead of the game - keep on crafting, Gen xxx
Check out the details of the new Diagonal plate - hopefully by clicking on this link www2.stampinup.com/gb/eng/ ;-)
