Simply Stationery

I decided to make some Monogrammed Notecards for my Godmother, Evelyn, who lives in Cumbria & is one of the very few people I still correspond with in the old fashion way lol....

I've kept it quite simple, making my own background paper in her favourite colour, purple.

Recipe (PTI unless otherwise stated): Stamps - Simply Stationery, Guide Lines Two, Fresh Alphabet, Borders Corners Square & Boxes Bags Tags / Cardstock & Ink Pads - Lavender Moon, Plum Pudding & True Black / Ribbon - Luxe Satin Plum Pudding / Other - SU! Punches

Initially, I wanted to decorate the envelopes to match (with seals etc.) & showcase them in a fancy box (using a Lauren Meader template), but alas time restraints got in the way!

Hope you're having a lovely Bank Holiday weekend & thanks so much for stopping by :)

Welcome to A Passion for Papertrey - a place where lovers of Papertrey Ink can get together to share ideas, inspiration, take part in challenges and join swaps!

We're Kate, Aimes and Caryn - we all live in the UK and became friends thanks to our mutual love of all things Papertrey. We soon found out there were lots of other fans in the UK and Europe and thought there should be a corner of the web to bring us together.

Of course we welcome readers from around the world but our primary aim is to unite stampers who use Papertrey products from the UK and the rest of Europe.

Every fortnight we will set a challenge using Papertrey products AND at the end of each challenge we will randomly draw a winner who will recieve some Papertrey goodies! This may be a roll of ribbon, a selection of papers and matching cardstock or even a stamp set!!

We know that as it is an overseas company you may not have a large collection of stamps and Papertrey colours so these will be kept quite general.

For example if you don't have the Papertrey colours you could use one of their stamps and cardstock/papers from other companies, or get creative with just some Papertrey papers and ribbon - the main thing is to have fun!
