3-Pretty in Pink Template Set

Post #2 for today! So scroll down! if you missed visiting over the weekend you won’t want to miss what has been shared

Another EXCITING day here! I have so many amazing things going on, I’m just plain grateful and ecstatic! October is a good month! 

I think I am going to have to apologize for my use of black this countdown! I basically paired everything with it this month, for some odd reason! I was just FEELING black with a pop of X color! You will see what I mean! LOL!

Today I am using BOTH of the NEWEST My Timeless Templates: Around Town Tote © & Cash or Charge Trio ©

The FUN part to today’s post is the focus on VERSATILITY! Now we are using (like all my posts this countdown) all the same colors and elements on each project and getting a cool NEW look each time! This goes to show how versatile it all really is! You don’t need ton’s of supplies or even ideas to get MANY MANY various, amazing projects!! Also I LOATHE mass producing. This allows me to use the same products and elements but on DIFFERENT projects so I’m not recreating the same’ol BORING thing

So without further delay…….

Pretty in Pink gift set

Now ALL these projects can fit inside the standard version of the Around Town Tote ©!

Can you see how each has the same elements, but each a fab look? (all supplies listed/linked at end of post)

Wouldn’t you just die if someone gave you stuff in all of this? I’d feel pretty special

First we will see Around Town Tote ©

I LOVE this!

I used my Slice cartridge to create the bird “mask” in which I stamped in my text, then flowers from the Life set. It’s just such a stunning and SIMPLE way to make this bag a real WOW! The tag I used the leaf image from 2009 Autumn tags and added the flowers from Life to it! A whole new look don’t you think?

Clean, simple and easy!!

Now here are my side details

I used the In Bloom paper on my side panels. Another simple decorative element that shows the attention that is needed to the SIMPLEST of details!

I LOVE packaging up Lindt chocolates-so get use to seeing them this season! LOL! Its my GO TO gift idea

As you can see I opted for NO handles on this one. I liked the look for this one without it.

Now we move on to Cash or Charge Trio © samples

Cash or Charge © #1 Wonderful Wallet

Going with the bird theme……I used the SAME tag idea, and used Birds of a Feather in the center. I love it!

Now this template flap generally ties closed! But I made a belly band for it instead.

Slide off the band……

and you have your gift card reveal! My FAVE! Dunkin’s coffee As you can see NO score lines on this one There is a slit that gift cards fit into perfectly (or cash!) you will REALLY love this one! I swear

Now we will go onto Cash or Charge #2

Pretty in Pink Pillow Pocket

OH MY WORD! Is this not STUNNING?

Just a pretty simple pink box with a fab tag!

This is the SAME flat pocketbook style template! There is a embossing template that comes with this, so you can create these side panels, and make this template a PILLOW style box-with a ultra cool handle!!

Now on this I used that same embossing template to make my decorative side panels for my box outside! I told you, you will LOVE this particular template in the trio! I’m just over the moon with it.

The tag used the NEW! Giga Guideline, and NEW! Background Basics Text Style II!! You will LOVE it!

Now using the SAME elements once again…last but certainly NOT least……

Cash or Charge #3

Now pretty is this when you use ALL of the layering templates it comes with?

Now did you realize that this can be not ONLY a FAB gift card/cash holder, but a rockin card too?

This is the insert pulled out. Its so simply pretty! I love that.

So here we uses ALL the same elements and got several FRESH looks.

What do you think? Are you seeing lots of gift card holders in your future, and fancy schmancy gift totes?? I know I am
