Happy Harmony Mini Notecards and Tin

Happy Fall and happy cooler weather!  Yippee!

I made 3 sets of these little gift tins, with four mini cards that are 3" x 3" and four envelopes last night.  I was burning the midnight oil, as they say.  I get some of my best work done at night.  I am such a night owl.  Too bad all the day owls wake me up!  :-D

Here is a close up of the tin.  It is a recycled General Foods International coffee tin.  The stamp set I used is an oldie but goodie.  It is a retired SU set called Happy Harmony.  Such a nice set for making these tins.  If you look under the 3 D tag or Happy Harmony tag on the side of the blog, you will find other projects that I have used it on.  I am pretty sure I have used it to do tins in the past.

Here is the cute little card, perfect to use for any occasion!  I used the decorative label punch for the verse and mat.  The Bashful Blue mat is cut in half, and the little points snipped off, then it is matted underneath the verse.  The little pink flower was punched out of a Pretty in Pink scrap piece of card stock with the retired SU 3 flower punch.  I have a whole drawer full of these little flowers all punched out and ready to use.  It saves so much time.  I just had to fish them out, then I embossed them with a stylus, glued them on, and then glued on a little yellowish pearl (a thrift shop find).  These make a sweet little gift to give.  Make it a great day!  Elaine

Brrr....

Good Morning!  I can actually say that as it is about 1:30 am right now.  It was another cold day at the flea market today and very windy.  But that didn't stop the people from coming out.  I got home around 3 today and I took a nap and slept almost 3 hours.  I started working on some card packets that were all cut and I finished 20 cards tonight.  Woo HOO!  I am a tired little camper now so am headed to bed!  Have a great Monday!  Elaine

Happy Harmony Mini Notebook

 

Happy Saturday night!  It sure was a cold and damp today at the flea market.  I ended up coming home early today around 2 as everything was dieing down.  But the people that had been there were buying good and enjoying it, and that is the main thing.  I stopped at Pamida on my way home and picked up 2 Sterilite 3 drawer 12 x 12 scrapbook drawers.  I had those filled up in about 5 minutes....lol.  I now have 9 sets of them full of designer paper, and other things.   I  had bought a bunch of Sterilite shoe box size 3 drawer units to store cards in last year so went upstairs and brought a few of those down stairs and I have been working pretty steady all evening and filled up 3 sets of those.  I am making great progress on the stamping room.  I don't think my work space has ever looked so clean.  The next things to tackle in there are a few boxes on the floor, and then the table by the window.  Even though it may look like a tornado hit around here, I am making progress.  :-D

I made 4 of these little mini notebooks on Friday and I used one of my favorite stamp sets, Stampin' UP! Happy Harmony.  I just love this set.  I will be showing you some more little notebooks  I made with this set tomorrow.   Have a good one!  Elaine
