Sending her off with To a wild Rose

It's a bittersweet time for me at work because of a supervisor that I look up to is leaving our department for a job in another city. I will sincerely miss having her around yet look forward to the wonderful things she will do at her new job!

Naturally, I had to put together something special for her. I do know that her favorite color is purple (just like me) and so I set off to imagine what I can put together.

Our office group decided it was best to gift her a basket-full of Tul supplies, considering that a few of my co-workers have these office supplies including myself. 

Here's the final product.

All the office supplies are purchased from OfficeMax. You can find their Tul product line here.

Aside from all the awesome office supplies, I created an elegant folding envelope mini album using the To a wild rose bundle from the Stampin' UP! 2019-2020 annual catalog.

This was my first opportunity to play with the bundle and absolutely LOVE the way it came out! What do you think?


Here are some TIPS for my creation:

• I CASED the instructions on assembling the album from Emma. In my case, I used 13 Whisper White envelopes and glued the flaps together. I also cut 13 pieces of Purple Posy cardstock to 4"x5.25" to insert into each envelope pocket.

• I made the album first being sure to have a front and back cover the same as as the envelopes then set it aside. After I completed my album, I made the front cover and glued it on the front of the album.
• Notice I did make a matching tag and added it to the gift basket. I used the Make A Difference stamp set for the "sentiment".

• I did use my Purple Posy ink pad to stamp the flower in the background. Unfortunately, this item is no longer available due to quality issues that weren't resolved.
