Halloween Pencil Card by Roberta

Roberta Rosi has created a card with a little gift attached.  What a fun idea!
Using SRM Halloween Stickers PLUS and Halloween Borders, Roberta decided to include a SRM Halloween pencil with her card.

She figured out a clever way to secure the pencil to the card by wrapping a snug paper around the pencil.

Then she taped the little paper holder shut and attached the pencil to the card.
And added some SRM Sticker Borders top on either side of the pencil.

Roberta decorated the card with a Pumpkin sticker on a punched piece to cover the little white paper holder, added a sticker spider and some Charcoal twine

It's easy to take the pencil off the card.  Wouldn't that be something fun to give to a teacher or a co-worker?

And here are the SRM Supplies that Roberta used on her project.  How totally fun!




Thanks Roberta for such a clever project that's sure to brighten someone's day!

Instagram Photo Cards by Michelle


By her own admission, Michelle Giraud is totally addicted to Instagram.  Since her phone is always with her, she finds herself snapping random pictures when she's out and about, then uploading them to the site.  Some of these have really become her favorite shots, so she wanted to order hard copies.  She downloaded the Walgreens app to her iPad, linked it to her Instagram account and picked some of her favorites to print out.  An hour later they were ready, and she was really happy with the outcome!  The prints are 4 x 4 in a matte finish, which makes them the perfect size for a little 4 1/4" x 4 1/4" greeting card. 

SRM Stickers Blog - Michelle Giraud - #cards #instagram #sentiments #lifeisgood #thinkingofyour 

Michelle used SRM Sticker Sentiments from Thinking of You, Life is Good and Faith designs.  These made great "everyday" kind of cards and fit well with of her photos.  Michelle's personal favorite is her dachshund, Pepper, with the "missing you" sentiment.  She's  going send that one to her daughter at college.  What a brilliant idea!

SRM Stickers Blog - Michelle Giraud - #cards #instagram #sentiments #lifeisgood #thinkingofyour

The 10 cards that she made took about 20-30 minutes total.  Michelle cut a bunch of white cardstock to make 10 of the 4 1/4" square cards, then simply matted the photo on the front and adhered the sticker.  Really, really easy, but a wonderful overall look.  Since Michelle used this batch of photos up she's already ordered the prints again to make another batch to give as a gift.

Enjoy these wonderful cards and be sure to take some Instagram photos and CASE this project idea.  Make multiple sets.  Keep one and put the others away for Christmas or Birthday gifts.

Holiday "Stitched" Cards & Boxes by Michelle

Michelle Giraud loves the hoidays and likes to make her own cards and gift boxes.  SRM Stickers and Clear containers are perfect for this job. 

Today we are sharing 2 of Michelle's projects that both use SRM's Sticker Stitches.  What a versatile and fun product they are.  Her first project is a gift set for Halloween.  

SRM Stickers Blog - Michelle Giraud - #Halloween #stickers #pillowbox #card

Michelle placed her Halloween Sticker Stitches on the outside of a SRM Medium Pillow Box.  She then created an insert to place inside using a pumpkin sticker and sentiment from SRM's We've Got Your Sticker PLUS.  The insert makes the Sticker Stitches really stand out.  Plus, you can write a note on the back.

SRM Stickers Blog - Michelle Giraud - #Halloween #stickers #pillowbox #card

With stickers that Michelle had left over from her two sticker sheets, she created a matching card.   This card was super easy made using all stickers except for a couple of stamped dots.   Add a bright bow and you're done!

SRM Stickers Blog - Michelle Giraud - #Halloween #stickers #pillowbox #card

Here are the SRM products used in Michelle's Halloween Gift set!




Loving how easy it is to create using SRM's Sticker Stitches, Michelle made this simple, yet sensational, Christmas card.  

SRM Stickers Blog - Michelle Giraud - #Christmas #stitches #stickers #card

First she embossed the card base.  Then Michelle cut out a tree shaped triangle and applied the green Christmas Sticker Stitches diagonally across the shape.  This layer was then matted on dark green and a star was added to the top.  Michelle added the sentiment from We've Got Your Sticker - Merry to finish it off.  With lots of stickers left over on both sheets, she can make lots more cards.



Quick and easy cards are perfect for any time of year, and SRM Clear Stickers are perfect for quick and easy.   Have you gotten started on your Christmas cards yet?  If not, our design team is giving you lots of great ideas.  See more Christmas cards and projects HERE.

Next Juliana took one of SRM's Clear Rectangular boxes and colored it to coordinate with her other party pieces.  She punched a hole in the top so that it becomes a holder for some spooky straws that are all decorated with Halloween words from SRM's Halloween Borders.  Sensational!
