Monday Madness.... Imagine That!!! ~ Episode 228

Good Morning & welcome to another "Monday Madness.....Imagine That"! Today my design team members & I decided to make projects using the colors, PINK, GRAY & BLACK! I decided to use my favorite imagine cartridge by Teresa Collings "Black & White"! I used the black polka dots on my pink textured cardstock! (You can see how that was done using my imagine in my video below!) I made a set of "9" notecards using one piece of 12x12 pink cardstock! Since this is a gift for someone, I packaged it up using some clear cello gusset bags from "Wrapped All Up", this is also the store where I get all my AWESOME sheer ribbon from! For all nine notecards, I used my stamp set "Many Greetings" PERFECT for a card set like this! The pink polka dot layer on my cards are 4x4 & the actually card base is 4.25x4.25.

Here are my adorable polka dot notecards all dressed up & ready to go!;)

Here are all the cards that are included w/this set!

Here is my video showing you how I made these super cute & quick notecards!

Now onto my FABULOUS design team's PINK, BLACK & GRAY projects!;)

Miss Jenn using "This & That" stamp set!

Miss Shar using "Race for a Cure" stamp set!

Miss Glora using "Happy Mail" stamp set!
