I made these cards to fit my Project Life album. I'm a scrapbooker mainly so always want to make my stamp sets do double duty. Here is the 6x4 inches and 3x4inches cards to fit the pockets. The grey squares show where the photos will go. This set is perfect for photographs as the sentiments are very generic for albums. I have used the punch and images as well as more word art around the border with stamped sentiments in different fonts and colours. There are so many sentiments in this set I am sure you will find just the ones you are looking for when you are scrapbooking your memories. My favourite is 'Happy Life' Happy Life! JoP

Do you love when you can get more out of your punch. As if this little circle tab punch was not clever enough and can be used along with the matching stamp set to label just about everything, here is a little way you can get some extra wellie out of your punch! I admit I did stare at the punch for quite a long time before I cam up with this one ...... but here it is!  Now - does that look at bit like a fish to you? Well it did to me and the photo shows how to cut it. You cut the tab out as normal first and then reinsert as show to get the tail! Ta Dah! See the card I made with it and the stamp set below.  Just as an extra bonus the punch also provides quite good corner rounding capability. So if you don't have a corner rounder handy use it as shown! Here is a card I made with the fishes and I used the stamps to stamp out happy birthday fishes at the bottom and the little crowns look so cute as party hats - I just roughly cut around these with scissors. I would...

 The circle tab punch produces just the right little hanger for a piece of cord to attach to a tag. You can use one of the many cute images in this stamp set to create a background on a piece of rectangle white card. I used a piece of scrap card to mask off a diagonal line to serve as a guide while stamping the birthday cake image along in a pink row followed by green, then grey then yellow. The Happy and Birthday sentiments are in different fonts in the set and allow you to mix and match to make a little banner greeting on the tag which can be raised up with some foam pads. The materials to make this tag, the card and notebook and pen and another bonus card project are FREE when you purchase the Stamp set and the circle tab punch from me. Check on my shop to order the stamp and punch and the rest will follow in separate packaging. I hope you are having a lovely weekend. JoP
