Make My Day~Keep in Touch~

UntitledUntitledUntitled
Well last time I was here I made a little box and I decided to buy some index cards to put in it only I bought the size that was slightly bigger then the box and I actually had the smaller ones to start with. I decided to keep these index cards and decorate them for you to have.

I've seen a lot of rubber stamp crafty things lately where people have just randomly stamped on a sheet etc... and I thought it looked great so I of course wanted to try it! Well I've decided I'm not good at it at all as I started by stamping everywhere to stop myself being fussy with it but in the end I ended up fussy trying to fill in spaces only to make a complete mess in the process. So despite my mishaps they do still look good but just don't expect them to be perfect.

I was going to use my rings to attach the whole lot together but then decided not to as you may have a better way of storing them yourself. I have included 2 pieces of white card in between all the 27! sheets (apparantly Mc needs a card of its own!).
 
I have rounded the edges of course as I think it adds a little something.

Make My Day: Best Of British

I bought these a couple of months ago and decided to post them this month so that it is at a similar time to the Olympics since they are held here this year.

There are 3 fridget magnets and 3 keyrings, depending on the amount of people interested I may split these up so that 3 people get 1 magnet and one keyring.

Make My Day....Born To Be British!

I have a giveaway currently going on at my burst of bubbles blog offering these salt and pepper shakers which I actually really like but won't be keeping as the shop I bought them from have so many fun different ones that I want to buy them all and I really can't afford to start another collection can I?
Telephone Box and Post Box Salt and Pepper Shakers
Whilst wrapping those I was thinking about this idea that I came across and really wanted to try but also thinking about making the children at work some Christmas cards out of another idea I saw but don't have a link for. It was using Japanese paper to make baubles and stuck on to white card... it looked so effective.... That resulted in me creating these...
Born in Britain
I ended up making a set of 3 using paper, rubber stamp and thread.
Telephone Box
Isn't it annoying that after you've created something all these ideas come flooding to you. With this one instead of the black outline I wish I'd done a wiggly one to match a telephone wire. We have a cordless one now but I've always loved the idea of twirling my finger in the coils.. I'm glad I thought to use the rubber stamp numbers to match the dial.
London Bus
I remade this one and like it so much better.
Postbox
This one was actually the first one I made, with this one I wish I'd made the border like a postage stamp but I'd already completed this one and had nearly finished the telephone box when I thought of the idea.

As for the paper if I'd plan this through it would have been so much nicer to have printed off some union jacks instead but I guess it had to be red to match all the redness of all things British. Even though I've had a good whinge I absolutely love how they have all turned out and for a first attempt. I will definately be making many more of these... hopefully very soon!
