Sad Farewell

One of my favourite sets to retire is Pun Fun.  It is so versatile with its pictures and funny punny sentiments.  Here's a quick birthday card in Daffodil Delight and Cherry Cobbler.  I hurried my water colouring so there is a little bit of bleeding.

Tomorrow is the last day to order any retired items....which means that on Thursday, the NEW catalogue begins.  Yippee!

Blast Off

Pun Fun is one of my favourite sets.  It is so versatile.   I have used paper piecing on the rocket, stamping it on Celebrations DSP.  Do you like the rocket's jet trail?  This is from a Christmas set!  Season of Joy on page 20 has this cute little swirl which I coloured in three different inks to show the blasting off.

Works quite well, I think.

And...I am enjoying doing something on the inside of my cards lately too.

Pun Fun

I have long admired the set Pun Fun for the simplicity of the images and the clever puns.  Love a good pun!  I have finally bought the set and thought it ideal for a set of notecards for Zac's teacher.  I used paper piecing for each of the images.

For each of the DSPs chosen for each card, I used that colour as the base of the card...mmmm does that make sense?

Here are some of the images close up.

I put the notelets in a pizza box with a belly band.

Stamps:  Pun Fun
