Super Simple Pocket Card

 

Hi Stampin' Friends!  I made this super simple Pocket Card for a Team Card Swap and also for my last Stamp Camp.  For the Team Swap our theme was to showcase some Designer Series Paper.  As I looked at my paper stash I found this paper pack that I hadn't used yet called To Market.   Staring at the pack I saw a bunch of veggies, and while they where cute, they were not my thing and I think that's why I kept passing over this pack.  But I remember buying it and wanting it, so I opened it up to see the rest of the papers and I remembered why.  This paper has some really fun plaids and florals, as well as a wood grain paper.  Now I remembered why I bought it.  The poor paper has sat unused for far too long, so finally it was going to get it's day to shine.  The Pocket Card uses several of the fun patters.  This paper pack made it really easy to mix and match the patterns. 

Here is a look at the smaller card from the pocket.

 And the inside of the card.

 

I have a full how to tutorial with measurements for this Simple Pocket card on my YouTube channel. 

I used the Sentimental Park Stamp Set for this card.  This is a great set to have on hand because the set has sentiments for so many occasions.  Some people at Stamp Camp used the Thanks as I showed on my example, and some changed it up for a Birthday card by using the Let's Celebrate on the outside and putting the Happy Birthday on this inside.  This set also has a Happy Anniversary stamp, which is harder to find. 

The dies that go with this set are also very pretty. I love the flowers that are on the sides of the labels, some solid, some outlines.

 You can switch out this papers and stamps to make this card for any occasion.

Everyday Happiness Scrapbook page

 Yay!! A scrapbook page!! It has been way too long since I posted a scrapbook page.  Way too long since I posted in general, but even longer for a scrapbook page.  Some of you know that I joined Stampin' Up! because I love scrapbooking.  When I was much younger with only one child, my husband was sent to Iraq as the Corpsman for a Marine Sniper Unit.  I wanted to scrapbook all the things our little guy was doing while Ben was away.  Way back then, Stampin' Up! used to sell "Simply Scrappin' Kits", who remembers those?  I loved them.  They had papers and coordinating sticker sheets to create beautiful pages.  They stopped selling them many years ago. Since the scrapbooking company Close To My Heart closed down, many of their employees have come to work for Stampin' Up! and many of their Demonstrators too!  So, YAY ME!! More Scrapbooking products!!  Hopefully Yay You too!! 

This page is part of a monthly challenge with a Facebook Page I am part of called Scrapbooking Global-Stampin' Up!    You can find lots of scrapbook inspiration there! I hope you will join me there!  

 

This month's challenge is a Sketch Challenge brought to us by Julia Quinn.

Here is the sketch.  You can join us at the Facebook group and add a page that you made with this sketch, we would LOVE to see it!! 

And here is my page again. I used the new Everyday Happiness papers for my page. 

I also used the coordinating Everyday Happiness stamp set. Stampin' Up! has several new papers and stamps designed to work great for Scrapbooking titles. You can see the new line up at the Online store, look at the Memory Keeping section.

I also used some additional stamps, such as the new Elements of Text stamp set for the background. I keep a little basket of left over die cuts on my desk, and these little trees and birds were in that basket.  The birds are from the Frosted Forest Dies and the tiny tree line are from Encircled in Nature. 

The Everyday Happiness papers have my favorite color, Lost Lagoon! Pretty Peacock is a very close second and I also really like Wild Wheat, so this paper was a must for me.  

You can also get this paper as part of a scrapbooking kit! The kit makes 3 double page spreads complete with a cutting guide and how to photos to make it effortless.  Take a look at all the pre-planned kits here.

I hope you like the page!  And that you will give the sketch a try.  Follow along to see what the others have created with the sketch!
