GINGHAM TEA BAG TREAT HOLDER!

Jenny Hayward

I had my Summer Sizzler Catalogue Launch on this weekend for the Occasions and Sale-A-Bration Catalogue.  It was a fun time sharing lots of the gorgeous new products and samples with them.

I will share some of the cards I have made over the next couple of weeks.  Today I thought I would share with you the little Treat Holders I made for everyone who came to Thank them for coming.

These cute little Treat Holders are made using the new Gingham Gala Designer Series Paper stack.  The paper is 6″x6″ (15.2cmx15.2cm) and are just the right size for these.  I made them in some of the different colours.  I took a photo of 3 of the different colour ones.  I have also used the lovely Organdy Ribbon that is available as a free choice for Sale-A-Bration. I will tell you how to make them below.

To decorate the front of them I stamped one of the butterfly stamps from Butterfly Gala set using Black Memento ink and these were then coloured with the Stampin’ Blends.  Using the Butterfly punch makes life a lot easier.  No fussy cutting them. 🙂 The sentiment is from the Well Said stamp set.  I stamped the “THANKS” on to Whisper White and punched it out with the Classic Label Punch.  I then could trim off each end. I find this a much easier way of doing it.

To make the Treat Holders

1. Take your 15.2cm x15.2cm (6″x6″) piece of paper.  I have used the Gingham Gala Designer Series Paper stack.

Line the left hand edge of the paper on the 6.7cm (2 5/8″) mark on the Envelope Punch Board.

Punch the paper and score on the score grid of the Punch Board.

2. Turn the paper 90′.  Line up the little score tab on the previous score line.  Punch and score.

Turn the paper another 90′.  Line the tab mark on the score line, punch and score.  Turn again and repeat.

3. Round the corners using the corner rounder on the punch board.  Fold on the score lines. Decide which side you want showing on the outside, place that side facing down when folding.

NB: In the photo below I hadn’t turned it over at this point.

Fold up the bottom tab.  Place adhesive on the 2 outside edges of this tab. I used Snail adhesive.  Fold in one side tab and adhere down. Before folding in the other side tab place adhesive on the inside bottom edge of this tab.  Fold over and adhere down.

Decorate as you like. To add ribbon, punch a hole in the top tab and thread through your ribbon.

This is a great size for a Tea Bag packet, chocolate, Gift card or other treat.

Enjoy.

Jenny

STAMPING AROUND THE WORLD BLOGHOP!

Jenny Hayward

 

Today I am taking part in a Blog Hop with the Demonstrators from the Stamping Around the World Tutorial team I am part of.  This is exciting! I hope you can take some time and enjoy the short hop around the world.  You might have come from  Sue Allen’s Blog or just starting out from here.  That’s ok.  Grab a cup of your favourite beverage and hop along to each blog.

Today I am sharing a project with the Hello Cupcake set.  I used this set in my project for this month’s Tutorials so thought I would use it again for the Blog Hop project.

Using a Clear Acetate Card Box I created a set of cards.  This would make a nice gift set.

The paper is from the Brights Paper Stack in the Annual Catalogue.  It is 6″x6″ (15.2cm) and not quite wide enough to wrap around the box completely.  I could join it but then you would notice it on this.  So I just went with a strip across the front and tied around some Lemon Lime Twist Organdy ribbon around the strip before adhering it to the front of the box.

The diecut “friend” is from the new Well Written Framelits Dies.  The “FOR YOU” is from the stamp set Well Said. These two come as a bundle or individually.

I made a set of 5 one layer cards using 5 different colours from the Brights Collection: Granny Apple Green, Gorgeous Grape, Mango Melody, Poppy Parade and Bermuda Bay.

The cupcake base was stamped in Early Espresso ink.  The “frosting” was stamped on scrap white card in the ink colour and then fussy cut out.  This was raised up with Dimensionals..  I stamped “sprinkles” in the corner in the co-ordinating colour. Of course, a Rhinestone to finish. 🙂

The cards were very quick to put together.  You could make them even quicker if you stamped the “frosting” directly on the card.  It’s nice to have a little card set on-hand to give out to someone.

Here are a couple of them individually to see.  I had to add a few sprinkles around for the photos. 🙂

This one is in Mango Melody.

This one is in Poppy Parade.  This is not a colour I use too often but I liked it on this card.

I hope you liked the Hello Cupcake card set.

This set is a free choice for Sale-A-Bration with orders over $90 AUS.  You can order your Stampin’ Up! products in my store now -> HERE  Please use the Host Code: FYQHM4CK

BECOME PART OF THE STAMPIN’ UP! FAMILY!

Jenny Hayward

I went to my first Stampin’ Up! workshop nearly 12 years ago. When I first saw the Stampin’ Up! products I fell in love.  Do you know that feeling? I loved all the colours and how they co-ordinated, I loved the range of products and I could see how they gave such a “professional” finish to my projects.  But I so couldn’t afford them.

When I discovered I could get a discount and I could even earn some money if I wanted to then I couldn’t let the opportunity slip by.  I joined Stampin’ Up!. 10 years later I am still loving the products and still amazed at what you can do with paper and ink.

What I didn’t know when I joined was that I became part of this big, global family that inspires each other and encourages each other to achieve their dreams whatever they are. I made friends with people from all over the world all sharing in this fun, creative journey.

I know that you love the Stampin’ Up! products.  You can be part of this family too and did you know that you can get a discount on your own purchases?

WEDNESDAY’S WOW! #52 – LOVELY LATTICE 3 WAYS!

Jenny Hayward

Wednesday’s WOW! #52.  Today I thought we would take a look at this gorgeous stamp, the Lovely Lattice.  This is a Sale-A-Bration choice.  It’s such a beautiful image and so nice to colour but also as I show, you can leave it white.  I know I am not great at colouring in so I like that idea.

Isn’t this pretty?  I have a video below so you can have a closer look.  And had you noticed the little scallop type line image.  I had completely missed this stamp and it would really add extra detail to your cards.  Don’t forget the little single flower image too.  See the video below.

 

Let’s have a closer look at the cards.

This one above is so pretty coloured with the Stampin’ Blends.  You don’t need too much more with it.  The sentiment is from Healing Hugs from the Annual Catalogue. And,look at the white card – Stitched Rectangle Dies. 🙂

You know what I like about this card above?  I like that it isn’t coloured and looks so striking in white against the green.  On this one the flowers are fussy cut.  The diecut background and sentiment shape are from the Rose Trellis Thinlits Dies in the Occasions Catalogue.

This card above is so pretty coloured in Grapefruit Grove. See, the Scallop line stamp makes a nice background.  The sentiment is from the Well Written Framelits Dies and the Well Said stamp set.

The Lovely Lattice is a free choice for Sale-A-Bration with orders over $90.  This set could be yours. 🙂

Shop in my store now -> HERE.  It’s shipped directly to you anywhere in Australia. Once you have done your order select your Sale-A-Bration set.  These orders will also receive a Tutorial Bundle for 10 different projects FREE!

SIMPLE BEAUTY ABOUNDS PAIR!

Jenny Hayward

Stampin’ Up! is all about simple stamping at the moment.  I find that a bit hard but I needed to make some quick cards the other day so I went with some simple stamping.

This Beauty Abounds set is a lovely one.  I love the Bokeh style dots.  You can create some fun, whimsical cards with this.

Colours are Flirty Flamingo, Granny Apple Green and Memento Black.  I stamped a butterfly on scrap white and coloured it with the Flirty Flamingo Stampin’ Blends then fussy cut it out.

You could do a lot with this set.  I have seen some lovely samples online so I need a little more play with it I think. 🙂

It is available as a Bundle with the gorgeous Butterfly Beauty Thinlits for $97.  You can buy the stamps alone for $40.

Available in my store now -> HERE.

MANGO HELLO CUPCAKE!

Jenny Hayward

I have another Hello Cupcake card to share with you today. Do you like cupcakes?  I have to say I don’t have them too often and I take the frosting off.  It is way too sweet.  I do like these cupcakes though. 🙂

I made a banner a little while ago with the Brights Designer Series Paper Stack.  I had lots of angle pieces left over from cutting the triangles.  So rather than waste them I will try and use them on some projects.

This card is in Mango Melody which I haven’t used too much of. On some white card I stamped the cupcake base in Early Espresso, the “cake” part in Daffodil Delight and the frosting in Mango Melody.  This piece was then cut with one of the ovals from the Stitched Shapes Framelits. A white card mat was first stamped with some “sprinkles” and then it was run through the Big Shot with the Subtle Embossing Folder.

I was brave.  I stamped the sentiment on the Mango Melody angle piece. I was really nervous to do this in case it didn’t stamp well but phew! it worked.  To finish, adhere all the pieces together.  I raised up the Oval piece with dimesionals and added a Rhinestone for bling.

Maybe I could make a few more different coloured versions with these angle pieces I have.  I will see how that one goes for time. 🙂

The Hello Cupcake set is a free choice for Sale-A-Bration with your orders over $90. Have you checked it out yet? See all the choices and to order in my store -> HERE.

HELLO CUPCAKE CASE!

Jenny Hayward

I have been having a little fun with cupcakes lately.  Hello Cupcake from the Sale-A-Bration Catalogue actually.  So I thought I would start to share some projects for you.

If you are not sure where to start with a stamp set, why not CASE (Copy And Share Everything).  The Stampin’ Up! Catalogues are great for inspiration.

This card is a CASE from p6 of the Sale-A-Bration catalogue.

Base card is Mint Macaron stamped with some sprinkles in Mint Macaron. The Blushing Bride strip is 9cm x 3cm (approximately 3 1/2″x 1 1/4″). On the white card (which is 7.5cm x 12.8cm – Approximately 3″ x 5″), I stamped the cupcake base in Early Espresso.

I positioned the Blushing Bride card strip temporarily above the cupcake base before stamping the Cupcake top.  Then I could stamp the cupcake top in the right place.  I just slid the strip away slightly to stamp. The Cupcake top is stamped in Blushing Bride and the Sprinkles in Berry Burst.  Some Linen Thread was wrapped twice around the strip.  I find it helpful to add a little Snail Adhesive on the back of the strip to hold the Thread in place to wrap it around.

Some more Cupcakes are on their way.

You can pick up your free Hello Cupcake set with your orders over $90 AUS during Sale-A-Bration.  If you are in Australia, Stop by my store to order -> HERE.  Please use the HOST CODE: FYQHM4CK
