June Stamp of the Month - Jubilation

June's Stamp Of The Month - Jubilation

This stamp set is one of those great ones you can use for just about anything & anytime!

I was trying to come up with something quick for my 10-4-10 club using the SOTM, & of course I was waiting till the last minute, so I needed to make something up quickly, & remembered this little gift card holder! This stamp set is perfect for this! You can make a ton of these gift card holders with the stamps for any season, or occasion! This one I figured was perfect for this month - Fathers Day! I have always considered my Dad, My Hero, & so when I seen this stamp, I had to make this thinking of my Dad!

For more information on the Stamp Of The Months, see page 132 in the 2011 Spring/Summer Idea Book, or just contact me!

Wedding invitation Envelope

375 of these cut from my Cricut machine. Then scored by hand


Bottom scored & folded, & glued at sides to make nifty little pockets to hold the ceremony cards & such.




One of my kid's favorite Teacher, & her daughter hired me to make their unique wedding envelope. She had seen an invitation similar to this, but the company wanted over $700 to make 350 of them. So she called me up & asked me what I could do. Her daughter had made up one how she wanted it done, so I sat down on my computer & made up a template to cut with my Cricut. There was NO way I was going to cut all those out by hand, LOL! Anyway, here is the end result. She is going to do the old fashioned wax seal, to seal the envelope shut. I can't wait to see how that turns out!



It's amazing what you can do with your Cricut & Silhouette machines, when you have time to play with them!
