Two Fun Make N Takes

While at our monthly Salsa club m-eeting last Saturday we made a couple cards. One was kinda a fancy fold card and the other was a fun make n take. I finished them when I got home and could use some of my stash to complete them.

 Since our club president and vice-president are both Stampin Up! demonstrators we used SU! papers and stamps. But I used one of my stamps on the card on the left

This card is made like a book. The left small panel is glued to the card back so it actually opens at the white area between the 2 colored panels. I cut the green tag in half and glued it to the white stamped tag with a gap so it is 1/4" longer than normal. I added some fun gold eyelet stickers that I used when I taught classes at the AZ Scrapbooking store in Green Valley, AZ many years ago.

I decided to use my Stardust Clear Gel pen on the beak and hat of this cute little Puffin.  And the sentiment is from a stamp set in my stash. They had one we could use but when you have 20 ladies trying to use it I decided to see what I had at home. The string at the top was in a bag of scraps of ribbons and stuff and it worked great.

I don't have any links today to share. My previous post does have the link to the gel pen and adhesives I use.

Hope you're week is starting out great!
