This is the stationery set I put together for our Cricut Club Holiday Party gift swap this year. I've always loved the cute decorated note pads I've seen posted by others and have been wanting to try one too. Been on the edge for a long time now about getting a BIA but read so many negative comments about the system that I hate to spend the $$$ for it. Instead, I decided to try a method shared by my friend Iris, where I used my 1/4 inch hole punch and a sheet torn from the store bought notepad as a template for the hole placements. For the notepaper holder, I used a tutorial shared by Stampin' Gal Val. The rose border on the note paper is a Darcy Hunter digital image colored with Copics, scanned then printed. The die cut bears are also Darcy Hunter digitals, imported into MTC and rendered into cut files. Filigree corners on the notepad are from a Cuttlebug corners set.
Also want to share all the great gifts that were created by the rest of the club members for the swap. Everyone is so super creative, and it was such a joy to see what they came up with....
