Whew! We made it! it is my pleasure to bring you the FINAL installment in the 31 Days of Dollies summer blog series. We're going out with a bang today, because I've saved the number one most-requested project from my Convention 2011 presentation on the Flirtatious suite from Stampin' Up to share with you.
However, due to the photo tutorial including our brand new scoring board (Simply Scored) I cannot post the tutorial until midnight tonight when the Holiday Mini catalog goes live. But, I have it all set up to auto-post--so here are some pictures to whet your appetite! Be sure to come back tomorrow (or stay up ate!) to see the tutorial.
This final doily project (after this month, I may never post another doily project again! LOL! My attention span is way too short for this 31 day nonsense!) is an Accordion Envelope Stationery Set using the Flirtatious DSP, Whisper White Notecards and Envelopes, and the Delicate Doilies and Perfectly Penned stamp sets. You can get one whole set from a single sheet of Designer Series Paper, so it is an excellent and affordable gift project, for sure!
Some of you might be able to figure it out just from these photos, but for the rest of ya'll, there will be complete measurements and step by step photos in the tutorial tomorrow. In fact, if you like photo tutorials for cute projects, I am having a Back To School Tutorial Blitz this coming week--something for all of us giddy moms who are so happy to have our regular schedules back after a fun but crazy summer!
Love the doilies... I hope the past 31 projects have shown you just how incredibly versatile the Flirtatious Suite can be. It is SO MUCH MORE than I thought when I first saw it--especially that gorgeous Hello Doily stamp--my first reaction seems laughable to me now.
I also hope that you've seen the value of a good demonstrator in showing you fun, affordable and unexpected things to do with a single group of products. If you don't have a local demonstrator, you can find one by putting your ZIP code in the Demonstrator Locator at www.stampinup.com. I would also be honored to assist you in any way through my shopping website at www.lyssa.stampinup.net. If you live locally to me, please use the contact form underneath my photo above, and I will put you on my local email list to be notified of classes and specials.
Thank you so much for joining us on the 31 Days of Doilies series. In the past month there have been over 26,000 views--that just boggles my mind! How energizing it is to me to read that you are finding fun inspiration here. I appreciate you!
YOU DID IT!! You have shown some fun and pretty ways to use doilies. TFS. Can;t wait to see your video on the final project.

Lyssa...Thank you so much for the 31 Days of Doilies! I never realized that so much could be done with one suite of paper, fabric & stamps. I really appreciate all the time and effort you put into doing this. The inspiration and ideas you give me are endless! Since I am also a demonstrator (Canada), I hope you don't mind if I borrow a few ideas...well, maybe more than a few!! Again, thanks for all you do...Brenda
