Clear Envelope Brag Book

It has been a couple weeks since my last post. I've been busy looking through the brand new Stampin' Up! Idea Book and Catalog and working on projects for July's camp. Now that I have been revealed as a Secret Stamper, I can post this project. This is called a Clear Envelope Brag Book and the tutorial can be found on Splitcoast Stampers under the Resources section. These are surprisingly easy to make, and if you have clear envelopes, I'd bet you have all of the other necessary supplies in your stash.

When trying to figure out what I was going to make for Mary, I started by embossing some On Board Chipboard letters (that I had left over from last year's convention make n' takes) with white craft ink and white embossing powder. Then I just had to figure out what kind of project I wanted to put them on! The base of the brag book is Regal Rose cardstock (one of my favorites!) with Pink Pirouette. The stamped swirl from the Yummy SAB stamp set and the fleurettes round out the embellishments. If you haven't seen the new catalog yet, SU! is offering plain white fleurettes. They'll match EVERYTHING!

Go grab the tutorial and make one! I'll be making more as gifts!
