Mini Milk Carton with instructions

Hi all

I made some mini milk cartons for a Stampin' Up! event I attended on Thursday. It's always fun to meet other demonstrators and swap ideas.

I've prepared a quick tutorial for those that I swapped with and the lovely ladies who requested it on my Facebook page.

Credit goes to Jose from Treasure your memories for giving me one of these cute cartons at the European convention in Brussels and I knew I had to make some myself.

I used the following items on my swaps:

Tools

Stampin' Trimmer 129722

Simply Scored Scoring Tool 122334

Bone Folder 102300

Handheld Stapler (Autumn/Winter catalogue) 135850

Stamps

A Round Array 129090

Paper, ink and Card

Photopolymer love

I'm so excited that Stampin' Up! have introduced photopolymer stamps to their collection! Don't worry, our clear & wood stamps aren't going anywhere.

Benefits of photopolymer stamps include:

• You can see exactly where you're stamping, great for 2 step stamping
• They are flexible, bend those sentiments to suit your projects!
• you can mount several stamps on one block, making quick and speedy backgrounds

Anyway, enough of the talk, here's a project made using the Show & Tell sets 1 & 2

Even better news, you can choose 1 set of photopolymer stamps absolutely FREE with every £60 you spend on any current catalogue items. I must warn you, they are selling very fast.

Offer ends 31 May or while stocks last.

Happy Retirement

I wanted this retirement card to have a much more contemporary feel than the usual one you might traditionally find in card stores.

I think it has a very fresh & modern feel & the layout can be used for many other occasions, simply swap the sentiment for another!
