A Jillian Vance Design: National Scrapbook Day with A Jillian Vance Design!


Come celebrate National Scrapbook Day with A Jillian Vance Design (AJVD) and her friends! If this is your first stop, start from AJVD :0)


The theme is Designer's Choice using Black, White and Red, AJVD signature colors, and using AJVD stamp sets. My choice is a pocket card using AJVD's Money, Money Stamp Set.


I used a 12 x 4" strip of black cardstock (for the picture, white was used...changed my mind - lol!) scored at 4" and 8". The right section was cut diagonally to create the pocket. Set aside.


After I swiped ScraPerfect's The Perfect Crafting Pouch on the cardstock, I inked "A Gift For You" sentiment from Money, Money Stamp Set with VersaMark. With white embossing powder, I heat embossed. Then I cut/embossed over the sentiment with S5-029 Lacey Nested Pennants widest ribbon tail die. Set aside.


Inside the card, I heat embossed "a little money for my honey" sentiment on the pocket. Added patterned papers in the back and edge of pocket. The last touch, I wrote a little note on a S4-304 Eyelet Circle die cut.



For the card front by cutting 3 7/8 x 3 7/8" patterned paper and ink mist with Lindy's Stamp Gang Starburst Rudolph's Red Nose. I embellished an Eyelet Circle die cut with black blings and S4-312 Blossoms Three which I misted with the same color ink spray. Add the heat embossed ribbon tail and some money, it's ready to give.
