Butterflies and Boats

I've been planning the next two projects for stamp camp.  For one project, I decided we'd make a matchbook sticky-note holder.  I got the instructions from the May Stampin' Up magazine, Stampin' Success.

The picture shows what I decided we'd make in class.  The "matchbook" opens and there is a sticky note pad in there.  It's perfect for a small gift, to keep on your desk, or even to keep in your purse.  I used the Big Shot to emboss the front.  I love using my newest "toy," the Big Shot.  The yellow (cardstock and stamp pad ink) is one of the new colors this year, Summer Starfruit.


We'll also make a masculine birthday card in class.  I ordered The Open Sea stamp set this afternoon, so it should be here in time for me to design the card and for us to use in class.  It'll be something like the masculine cards I've pictured below:

A new stamp blog hop will begin on June 8.  Visit my blog for the info.  If you "hop" on all the blogs I list and leave a comment, you'll be entered to win a prize.  So, be sure to come back on June 8.
