A Washi Wonder Birthday

Here's a new stamp coming out August 1st.  It's a special stamp set and not everyone can get it!  What makes it so special?   Its a Hostess Only set!  There are seven Hostess Only stamps that will be available in the new Autumn/Winter Idea book.  The great news for Hostess, when they choose one of these special stamps, they can get them at a special low price!

When I first looked at the new book I new immediately that this Washi Wonder set would be a must have in my collection.    It's a fun stamp with lots of washi tape designs and because you stamp them, that means you have a choice of any color in any design!   I couldn't wait to create a card with this set!  This set has a retail price of $17.95 but Hostess' can get it for just $10!


I created a Birthday card using another one of my favorite stamps - Joyful Birthday (B1419)


I used Kraft paper as my card base and the colors of Lagoon, Smoothie, Buttercup and Desert Sand.  Of course, I had to tie it off with matching bakers twine from the Baker's Twine Paradise Assortment (Z1702)

I'm entering this card into these challenges:

Now, I want to share with a cute way to make a gift card holder!  I used the Artiste Cricut Cartridge to make this holder.  It was very simple!  The Cricut cuts the card and it folds so that you can slip a gift card inside! I set the cricut to cut at 5".  I recycled an old gift card so my card is a little thick. This size worked well.   If inserting a regular card you can use 4 3/4" measurement.  "Merry Christmas" is also cut using the Artiste Cricut Cartridge.  I set the measurement to 2".               To re
