Notelet Set #3

Another notelet set, but with a different box. I'm not too keen on the notelets themselves - I think the stamped image is too small and that the colour is a bit strong - I might do another set and make the cards more like the top of the box. Not to mention that I put the corner pieces in the wrong corners on the green ones... didn't notice until I uploaded the photo now!

There are 6 notelets in the set, 2 each of green, pink and purple to match the colours of the main image, which is 'Modesty' by Penny Black, watercoloured and pierced in the corners. I also roughed up the edges a bit as they looked a bit flat without.

Thanks for reading, and as always any feedback is very welcome!

Notelet Set 2

This set is different to the first in that it opens out, instead of having a flap.

I made 6 A6 cards, and used the Chick-a-Doo range of Sei papers and some more Core'dinations card. The papers are double sided, so the cover consists of the front side of Chick-a-doo layered on slightly larger pieces of the reverse side IYSWIM. The front of the top three cards are Pee Wee's Kiwis from the same paper range, and the bottom three use the reverse side, so all six cards are made with one sheet of 12x12. The scallops are from the Core'dinations card, which I've drawn dots on using a Sakura glaze pen, and the pictures are 2" circles taken from a sheet of the paper I used for the covers.

I didn't plan to use these for the scallops but I put a message on them and when they were all put together I didn't like them and needed to cover them up!

The ribbon used to tie them up is American Crafts... I thought it was too dark, but the opinion so far is that it's a good contrast, so it's staying. Oh, and the box itself is another sheet of Core'dinations white cs.

Notelet Set

Six notelets with envelopes in a box





I made these A6 notelets and box using the Core'dinations ColorCore cardstock. I bought one of their 6x6 Super Assortment pack, and found them really good to work with. The orange scallop square, the green panels, the box and the band are all made using the card (although the box and band are 12x12 sheets).

The flower is a stamp which I coloured using Whispers pastel markers. I covered the whole square in clear versamark and embossed the whole thing, then put it on the scalloped square. The green layer has silver eyelets on each corner, and the picture was put on glue dots for a bit of dimension. The sentiment says 'Just a Note...' which was printed directly onto the card in Fine Hand font in Olive Green (3).

The box was a bit of guesswork really, and it took me a couple of goes to get it right, but now it works I can make a pattern and hopefully make a few sets.

Thanks for looking
