Hi Everybody!
Can you believe this is my 5th day posting in a ROW?? Honestly, I never thought I could because I'm so busy with my family, but Nikki Sivils paper is SO easy to work with that I can create projects really quickly. So this time I used the Bella Blue And Oscar Too Line. I think pages that are scallop shaped are so gorgeous, but almost too gorgeous! I never want to cover them up. I took a look at the scalloped page from this line, and had the idea to create a notecard set. You could seriously create this whole set (with envelopes) in about 20-30 minutes. Even less if you don't doodle as much as I did :P

- Pink By Design = March Stamp of the Month "Grow", Simply Everything
- white gel pen
- envelopes
- 2 sheets of 8 1/2" x 11" cardstock (I used Stampin' Up!)
Here's what you start with:
- Cut that into 4 symetrical trianges in wedge shape (cut vertical, then horizontal).
- Paste with the point of the wedge in the bottom left of the card. You may have to play with it a little bit and do some trimming, but nothing major.
Here's how it turned out:
*Using some of the same stamps that you use from the cards on the envelope really bring the them together.
*Making matching envelopes makes this look like a complete set.
And if you want to win some Nikki Silvis paper of your own, remember to leave a comment on each of the posts listed below for a total of 7 chances to win!
*One entry per person per post ;)

TFL, and if you decide to try this idea, I'd love to see it! Please head over to my facebook page, or Nikki Sivils' facebook page and post what you make! Thanks, and hope everyone has a chance to craft today :o)
Jenny those turned out GREAT!! I love all the doodling. What white gel pen do you use? I can never get mine to flow like that.
ReplyDeleteSweet idea, Jenny! I love Nikki Sivils paper but my specialty store nearby only carries one line of it. I wrote to Nikki on FB and the sweetie responded to let me know where I can buy it online! YAY, I have some coming in this week. NOW I'm going to have to go get some of the BELLA, BELLA because I ♥ this idea!!
