PAINTED ILLUSIONS PAPER + WITH YOU IN MIND!

Jenny Hayward

More with the Painted Illusions Designer Series Paper. I kept it simple again highlighting the wavy paper and bold colours.

The Happy Birthday is from the ‘With You In Mind’ Stamp Set. I stamped it on white card (it is white…) and then diecut it with one of the Textured Notes Dies. It was wider than the width of the card so I trimmed it down. Having the edging top and bottom of that piece adds some extra detail and texture.

Take a closer look at the “flowery” shape in the circle. Rather than just simply stamping it I added extra colour. Firstly, it was inked in Granny Apple Green and then I used a dauber to add some Pretty in Peacock in areas over it. You only need a little dab of ink. Then it was diecut with one of the small circles in the Stylish Shapes Dies.

Then I added some Rhinestones for the finish. You could add more to this card if you like to but I just kept it simple for the paper.

The Painted Illusions Paper is February Product of the Month.

SENDING SMILES WITH THE LOVELY ARRANGEMENTS BUNDLE ~

Jenny Hayward

I like to give cards that are “sending smiles”. I love the expression in this Lovely Arrangements Stamp Set and adding the gorgeous Lovely Blossoms Paper for a card with a lot of heart.

In the Lovely Arrangements Dies there is the large “dotted” background die which adds an extra element. And there is also the small “dot” background for extra texture too.

The flowers I coloured with the Stampin’ Blends and then diecut some leaves to add.

Have you seen the Lovely Arrangements Bundle or the Lovely Blossoms Paper?? It is really gorgeous.

SWEET SUNDAY WITH A PATCHWORK CARD!

Jenny Hayward

Sweet Sunday with this fun Patchwork card idea. This one is created by Stampin’ Up! Artists with the True Blue Florals Designer Series Paper. You could try with any pretty paper though.

Here’s How:

You would need to cut numerous white squares. Diecutting them with one of the small squares from the Stylish Shapes Dies give you that “stitched edge” look. For a card like this you would need 16 squares. Then diecut some squares with your patterned paper. Cut the squares diagonally. Then you can position the white squares over your card mat and place the cut paper squares in position to create the patchwork look. This card would work best with a Square style card.

Try this idea out for a card. And I would love to see it too if you like.

This paper is the Product of the Month that has been out this month. There is a new exclusive product each month.

You can purchase this True Blue Florals Paper for $9 when your order reaches $125. (AUD)

You can find more about the Product of the Month -> HERE.

CHRISTMAS TAGS INSPIRATION!

Jenny Hayward

Only days out to Christmas but maybe you still need some inspiration for your Christmas Tags. These could be added straight to a Card Front too for Cards if you prefer.

These tags we made at our last Christmas Tag Class recently.

I have used a number of different products on these tags. You could use the same or substitute with what you have.

These tags used: the Ornamental Christmas Bundle. The Festive Friends Bundle. Modern Christmas Specialty Paper. Peaceful Garden Designer Series Paper. The Patterned Tags Dies.

Here are some more Tag ideas that I have created from past years.

If you are still madly creating for Christmas I hope that you get it completed soon. And if it doesn’t get done don’t stress. All will be Ok.

Happy Crafting,

WATERCOLOUR TREES WITH THE STAMPIN’ UP! ORNAMENTAL CHRISTMAS

Jenny Hayward

I was going to film a video to show you how to make this card. But here we are a week out from Christmas…. So I thought I would tell you about it. It’s easy to follow along really I think.

This is the card.

The trees were given a light watercolour. Ink the “pine” type tree with the Classic Ink. I used Garden Green and then with a Water Painter lightly wipe over the branches spreading outward to wash out the colour. You only need a very light touch.

For the other tree I inked this up in Granny Apple Green and used the Water Painter to spread the ink. Start from the outside line and brush inwards. You will need to pick up more ink from the ink pad to spread enough ink but that’s ok. Add as much as you like.

Let the trees dry before you diecut. I used the Ornamental Christmas Bundle but if you don’t have that then try it with other tree stamps you have. This technique could work too with flowers or other images you want to colour. Give it a try.

To finish the card I stamped the sentiment on white card and diecut with one of the larger Arch dies in the Everyday Arches Set. Before I diecut the arch I added a strip of the Modern Christmas Specialty Paper near the bottom.

Now to go and finish the Christmas shopping. I am so behind. Anyone else like that??

Happy Christmas creating. I hope you’re more organised that I am.
