MAMBI

Hello everyone!  I've been playing with some of the new MAMBI that Sar has in the Savvy store and let me tell you ... I'm totally head over heals with it!!  Especially these .....


(Find MORE designs HERE)

OK, so I must be living under a rock or something because when Sar first suggested I play with these I was unsure - what were they even?  Well, these are pre-printed, pre-scored CARDS .. all ready to use!  Now, I wouldn't call myself a great card maker, but I do make all the cards we give away ... I can't remember the last time I visited the newsagents for one.  So ... these are a card maker's dream!!
I also got these Pocket pages to match:


(Find more designs HERE)

These fit perfectly on the cards, but would also be perfectly at home in your Project Life pockets (perhaps why they are named Pocket Pages??).
So, here's a few cards I managed to whip up so very quickly the day they landed on my doorstep ...



I've used a MAMBI card, 2 of the Pocket Pages (some are just patterns, no writing which is awesome too!), twine , the Mister Huey's Color Mists and the cloud wood veneers are all from the Savvy Store!



Secondly, I just loved this Pocket Page "Enjoy" ... and decided it would look perfect on a card ...



So, on this one, I've used a MAMBI card (the orange spot), a large pocket page, with the smaller "Enjoy" pocket page over the top.  I had the perfect orange button in my stash to match!  The Prima butterfly and the washi tape are available in store.
Lastly, my daughter turns 7 next month so I created a card for her :-)


As you can see, my cards are all VERY simple, and SO easy!  Here, I've used a MAMBI card with one of the printed spot Pocket Pages along with some washi tape from the store.  The other bits I found in my stash to create a card perfect for my birthday girl :-)

My next challenge is using some of these MAMBI goodies on a scrapbooking page!  I can totally see it working and can't wait to try :-)

BIG Savvy Sketch

Aren't these months flying by!!  We are on the downward stretch of the year now!!
Anyway, this month over at Savvy, I designed the sketch for the August challenge. 

It's a pretty simple sketch and open to lots of interpretation.
And here's my page:

I've used one of the newer Echo Park ranges (yes, I still love EP!!)

and some Prima from the Savvy Store ...

some twine ... (SO many colours to chose from!!  And so reasonably priced!!)

And you'll spy some washi tape too ... again, the Savvy store has soooo many designs!  So difficult to decide :D :D

I just had to use one of my favourite arrows from {scrAp this} too :-)

I hope you can play along with our BIG Savvy Sketch this month!!  It's the BIG one ... it has a massive $40 prize with FREE POSTAGE going to a random winner!!  You have to be in it to win it :D
