Voilà, Merci! It’s all gone to the French

Posted on December 15, 2009 by Genevieve Valdes

Here’s another card I made using the little chef from the Voila! stamp set with a Christmas twist. This card was made to thank a dear friend for a wonderful holiday dinner. She also shares my addiction for stamping and loves all things French. To thank her I made this card using the paper piecing technique with scraps from the Christmas Jingle Scrappin’ kit.

Voilà! Dinner is served

Posted on December 1, 2009 by Genevieve Valdes

My friend held a dinner for all our friends to kick-off the holidays. She had purchased the Voilà stamp set keeping in mind she wanted to use it to create menus and place cards. For her holiday party I helped her create a menu holder and place cards for her dinner party. This little guy is so cute and so versatile. He can hold many different items on the platter in his hand. He’ll add a touch of whimsy to your next dinner party. This stamp set will make a great hostess holiday gift.
