Morning Mocha with a Purse

Ciao Bella,

      I am so excited today, I knew when I saw this Specialty Designer Series Paper , Morning Mocha, that it was going to be at the top of my ' Must haves" from the new Idea Book &Catalog.   Ok Well I'm a coffee freak and I keep wanting to call the paper Morning Mocha latte…lol

Here is the first thing I made with the gorgeous paper

Check out that Purse !!!!!!!!   Way Cool …..Now let me show you the paper real quick …..

These two sheets are FLOCKED…so the designs are raised and almost feel like velvet…It reminds me of wall paper from years and years ago….The Espresso Print,    It the same design from the Stamp Set Elements of Style, one of my Favorites …..

 Look at all these rich tones…it would make for some elegant and regal scrapbook pages ….not to mention that you could get a very formal masculine card or scrapbook page…For our Kings, Princes and Knights in Shining Armour…..

Ok … back to the project …..

I wish I could have a real purse that looked like this….

As soon as I saw this specialty Designer Series Paper … I knew that this project was in the bag…sorry bad pun …

I used Basic Black for the trim but I think the next one I'm going to uses Early Espresso. I used the Antique Brads to re-enforce the handles ….

Don't you just love it, when you surprise your self on how cute something came out…

I have to admit I can't remember where I got the pattern for this purse… I'm not that creative…..to design the pattern myself … but I can sure follow a pattern …So I have to give thanks and credit to whoever took the time and effort in creating it …..

Now on to the 3×3 note cards that fit inside this little gem…..

I used the Coordinating Stamp from Elements of Style to create the background Images …I also used the sentiment and flourish stamp from the Stamp set Kindness Matters…This is going to be one of my new Favorite stamp sets ….and of course I finished the card of with a little vintage trinket … a tiny brad that looks like a button …. 

Here Again … Same elements ,,, just switching the color up to Cherry Cobbler

This note card has to be my Favorite….

I decided AFTER I sponged the edges of the sentiment Kindness Matters…that I wanted to use Pearl Smooch Spritz….I know it really doesn't show up in photos…such a bummer….anyway…when I spritzed it …the ink where I sponges started to bleed just a little bit… and created the coolest … pink-y Brown pearl effect…..you really have to see this card in real life…all pearly and shimmery…..As I said before, sometimes I surprise myself….lol

well Today was a long post …. I will let you get on with your day…
