Writing Kit Holder

 

Writing Kit holder + cover



I love using this Simple Stories - Vintage Coastal collection. 
I've made so many different projects so far and still have loads of scraps left to put together so much more too!
This is a fun and actually quite a quick project using only 2 pieces of cardstock / pattern paper.. 
You can store pretty much anything in there for a PenPal, like letters, note paper / pad, envelopes etc.. 








Let me know what you think! 
Thanks for your time, Happy Scrapping..

This / That swap tags

Each week I create new ideas and inspirational projects for a small online group I am a part of on FB. 
I love to try and come up with things I normally wouldn't bother making. But the imagination runs wild when I can base projects on PenPal ideas or upcoming swaps. 


The weather hasn't been great for progress videos lately, but I did manage to throw these This / That tags together today and quickly did a show & tell video afterwards instead..
I used 1 plain cardstock for the 8 white bases.
And 3 half pattern papers of the Kaiser - Lady Like collection.
Base tag - 6x3"
Bottom pattern paper - 5 3/4 x 2 3/4"
Top pattern paper - 5 1/2 x 2 1/2"
The use whatever you have in your stash to create embellishment toppers.
Alphas, Stickers, Colour Cuts, Doily, Glitter Paper ++
Punch a tag hole at the top, roll in an album ring & add some ribbon for decoration.

Happy Mail pocket - Sweet As Honey

 Using scraps from the PhotoPlay - Sweet As Honey collection I have thrown together a cute 5x5" flat flap opening style Happy Mail pocket project. 


It was surprisingly fast to make and so easy! 

Start with 12x12 base, score long line  @ 3 3/8 & 3 1/2 rotating each side. 

Cut out corner squares. 

Mid square paper mat - 4 3/4 x 4 3/4" 

Side flaps mats - 3 1/4 x 4 3/4"  (4 inside + 4 outside) 

Add plenty of flat embellishments (like stickers) and a Belly Band 1x12" strip for closure element. 

This will be for an upcoming swap, but will also be perfect for a Gift Card present or a PenPal letter.

High Tea - Happy Mail penpal idea

 This was just a fun little project I put together featuring Uniquely Creative - High Tea collection.

The base design is loosely based on an idea from Alicia Redshaw at Scrapbook Fantasies.
However the measurements are mine and some design changes were made to not clash with copyright laws.

You are welcome to use this project as an inspiration or scraplift if you’d wish!








This would make sure a great little Happy Mail idea to send to a Penpal. It would hold quite a bit of goodies as it’s 1” wide in the holder / pocket area.
