Treats For My Stamping Friends

I love class days!  I get to spend time with my lovely Stamping friends and when I get the chance I like to spoil them a little too.  Last Saturday was just such a day as we gathered to make the wonderful Tin of Cards featured on the front of the latest Stampin' Up! catalogue.  Those of you who follow me on Instagram or Facebook may have seen a sneak peek of the treat bag I made for the lovely people who came along.

They were then filled with an assortment of sweets just in case extra sustenance was needed while stamping!

Aztec Inspired Card Collection Using Bohemian Boarders from Stampin' Up! UK

Last night I was invited to attend a murder mystery dinner at a friends house.  Our invites gave us our characters, encouraged us to dress up and to take a character appropriate gift for our hosts.  I was given the role of a Victorian amateur archaeologist with a love of all things Aztec.  I am pretty sure I did not nail the costume but I hope my gift to the hosts did better!  
Aztec Inspired Card Collection Using Bohemian Boarders from Stampin' Up! UK
With the help of the lovely Bohemian Boarders stamp set I developed a set of cards with an Aztec inspired pattern.

Here is a closer look at one of the cards

and the complete set together.

I also made gifts for everyone at the party, again Aztec inspired and I will show you those another day.  Now in case you were wondering we did play a murder mystery game just not the one we planned - part of the original game was missing - so we will never know if my Aztec loving friend was indeed a murderer!

How to Punch a 3/4 Inch Banner with the Tripple Banner Punch

I think the Stampin' Up! Triple Banner Punch needs to be renamed - you can't just punch 3 sizes of card with it, you can punch four!  I love that with Stampin' Up! you get more than you expect and this punch is the same - as well as punching the advertised 1, 1 1/2 and 2 inch banners you can also easily line up and punch 3/4 inch strips.  For this week's Find Out About Friday I would like to show you how.
How to Punch a 3/4 Inch Banner with the Triple Banner Punch from Stampin' Up!
If you take a close look at your punch, where you put your card in you will see a short groove on either side of the bottom of the slot designed for a 1 inch strip.

The gap between those two grooves is 3/4 inch - so you can use it to line up and punch a perfect 3/4 inch banner end.  Once you line up your card I would suggest you keep a finger on it to stop it slipping.
How to Punch a 3/4 Inch Banner with the Triple Banner Punch from Stampin' Up!
A couple of weeks ago I shared how to measure your card to know how long your finished banners would be.  So here are the measurements for a 3/4 inch strip.

And the updated handy reference table.
Measuring Guide for the Stampin' Up! Triple Banner Punch
Have fun with this amazing punch!
