Craft Fair Idea: Covered Post It Note Pad

Nigezza Creates aka Gez, Independent Stampin' Up® Demonstrator 

Thank you so much for visiting my blog today, I really hope you like my project. This is my customer thank you gifts for all those who shopped with me in September. All my customers receive a  thank you gift from me for shopping with me and a handmade card. If they used the Host code they would also receive some free products and samples.

I really like this project because it is very quick to make and does not use very much card stock and DSP, it therefore would also be a fabulous item for a craft fair.

The Project Share Project

Nigezza Creates aka Gez, Independent Stampin' Up® Demonstrator 

Thank you so much for visiting my blog today, I am here today with another  Project Share.  The Project Share is a group of demos, all Pootlers and we choose a project from the past week of 3 members and showcase them. There will be a link included with each project so you can go and check them out. Everyone is so talented I am sure you will enjoy taking a look at their blogs.

Helzie from Slimm & Stylish

The first project I have chosen is by Helzie

I love Helzie time lapse videos and this is one of those. This is one of my favourite stamp sets and Helzie has teamed it up with this amazing paper as well. I love it and its such a great bow as well.

You can take a closer look at this project by clicking here :-) 

Verity from Inkybutterfly  

Verity always makes amazing clean and simple cards. I love this card it is simply stunning.

Heather from Stamp with Nellie

I have seen so many cards with this stamp set and I love them all but I don't actually have this stamp set but every time I see a card using it I wonder how long it will be before I get it!  Love how Heather has colours the trees on this card, just amazing. 

You can take a closer look at this project by clicking here :-) 

I do hope you have enjoyed the projects I have chosen for you and you will go and check them out. I look forward to bringing you some more projects next time :- )
