What do you do with a whole pack of blush blossom? Make cards and mini-totes, of course! ;) Blush blossom is a color I rarely use, but love it with the new designer papers. I think it gives such a soft look with a touch of "old fashion" too.
This set will be one of the projects being made at stamp camp Friday night. I wanted to use a touch of the new designer paper and this mini tote and card fit the bill. Instead of using grosgrain, I cut 1/4" strips of celery cardstock 11" long and it worked perfectly for the strap. To secure it in place, I used the 2-way glue pen and silver brads.
The template for the mini-tote came from durhamzoo in the forums/resources section: Forums at Splitcoaststampers
The inspiration for this card/tote set came from atomicbutterfly and here's the link: Gallery at Splitcoaststampers Check out her gallery for some cool ideas!

Woo hoo!! So these are projects that I have to look forward to making on Friday night. Can't wait! Is it too early to pack my beverages and make the artichoke dip!?!? :-)
