Just Believe.....

 

It's sad to see Just Believe being retired.  It's one of my favourite sets and will be missed. 

If you were at my last technique class you will have already seen this card (raised window) .

 

Sorry about the shadow on the photo....but that's what you get with a raised window!!

Believe in the Garden.....

I have recently had the sad job of making 50 thank you cards to be sent out to friends and family by my mother-in-law, thanking them for their thoughts and prayers on the untimely passing of my father-in-law.

So I reached for my favourite set from the new IBC, Just Believe, and with colours chosen by my MIL, this is what I came up with (this is just the first 20).

I wanted to keep them rather flat, to make posting them easier, and as requested, there was no ribbon, or frilly bits.  That was a bit of a challenge for me, (I love ribbon and frilly (ready blingy) bits!), so I went with the torn edge for interest and I'm pleased with the final design.  I used markers direct to rubber, to create the multi-coloured image.

Just Believe......

When I first saw the new IBC, Just Believe was one of the sets that I had to have straight away (don't worry, this was a very long list - LOL!)

Anyway, once the new In Colours arrived on my doorstep (had to wait as they were on back order) I decided what better way to show case the new products, but to combine the two and create a set of cards, all of which you see above. 

Here is a close up of the main card style.  I've used the stripy DSP from the Hostess Set of papers, as well as the new ribbon in each colour, and the new Scallop Trim punch.  Pear Pizazz is the green colour on all of the cards, with the other four in colours being the feature colour on each card.  You'll see that I've also stamped the leaf image above the DSP.

Here are all the large cards together.  I've used a different sentiment from the set for each card.

The gift cards use the small framed image from the set.  I've used the in colour markers to ink the stamps, so that you get the multicolour image, both on the large cards and the gift cards. I've also stamped the image on the envelopes.

Small gift tags are also very popular at the moment, so here they are.  I've used the round image for these.  They are the perfect size for attaching to a gift.
