Ida is Moving!

It is with great sadness to announce that I will be moving to London, UK in June 2014. That being said, I will be discontinuing my involvement with Stampin' Up! as a demonstrator when my status as a demo is dropped (quarterly quota not met). It has been an exceptionally fun 4 years crafting with you and inspiring you all. I thank you all for your loyalty and I hope you will continue your crafting path and stay creative!
I have been delaying this announcement because it is painful for me to let go of Stampin' Up! and of the joy it has brought to me these past 4 years. I have learned a lot from many of you and there are still plenty to learn. We will have to keep in touch!
There are memorable moments that I'll never forget and never would have gained without Stampin' Up! And of course the amazing friends I've met. Thank you Stampin' Up!

Simple Thank You Tag

Tags are making such a comeback in our paper crafting world. The new Angled Tag Topper Punch from the Stampin' Up! Occasions catalog makes speedy tag with just one punch. The size of the punch takes 2"x 4.25" cardstock. With this card, I used Very Vanilla 8.5"x11" cardstock. Each sheet can make 8 tags.

Place cards for Tom and Ben

The next reveal of my 8 projects is the embossed place cards. These place cards were not shown in the Scrapbook & Cards Today blog post.
Place cards and party favor bags by Ida Chan #StampinUp #PartyPartyBundle
I kept my place cards simple to draw a natural vintage theme. The whisper white cards stock was first embossed with the woodgrain textured embossing folder. I then heat embossed the woodgrain emboss with gold embossing powder.
To finish off, I used the cards that were perforated to create quick label name cards and stamped the Hello, please take a seat stamp from the bundle.

This Party, Party bundle comes in handy for putting together quick creative parties.

I was required to use items from the Party, Party Bundle. They come in 2 colors.

Decked out Invitations

To continue on with the rest of the 8 projects I was required to create using the Party, Party Bundle, I am showing you a card today as my Creative Wednesday post. I made an over the top 6"x6" party invitation.

I dissected in half the tiny treat bags from the bundle to make a cute craft envelop. One bag was enough to make 2 cards. I slipped the invitation card into the envelop and finished off the card.
The Always Artichoke mini envelop was created using the Envelop Punch Board.
I really love the stickers and labels that come with the bundle. It adds quick finishing touches to the projects.

Come back later this week as I reveal the rest of the projects.

I was required to use items from the Party, Party Bundle. They come in 2 colors.

In the kit, there are 10 cute craft treat bags and sheets of 6"x6" Designer Series Paper. Just in time for Chinese New Year, I turned the 6"x6" DSP into fortune cookies and the treat bags for hostess favours. You can do so much more with this kit. I'll show you more over the next few days.



For the record, fortune cookies aren't Chinese. They were created in North America.
