Happy Moments Tote and PPA 26

The challenge this week at Pals Paper Arts is "Anything BUT a Card" which just sounded too fun to pass up! http://www.palspaperarts.com/

To see a tutorial on how to make this cute little note card holder check out the link here:

The note cards are 3x3 square and the envelopes that go with them are the small square envelopes in the catalog. They all fit nicely in this cute and easy tote so if you're looking for a nice little gift, this is a good one!

I did some real watercoloring using an Aqua Painter and re-inkers. The Aqua Painter is a little fussy at first but I actually enjoyed using it more than I thought I would.

Both the Happy Moments stamp set AND the Scallop Trim Border Punch that I used can be found in the Sale-A-Bration mini catalog and can be earned free! Yay! All you need to do is spend $50 and then choose what you'd like. SO FUN!

I used:
*Happy Moments stamp set
*So Saffron, Old Olive, Real Red and Whisper White card stock, ink and ribbon
*Scallop Trim Border Punch, Aqua Painter, Silver Brads
