I am married to Glenn and we have 2 adult children: Josh and Carlie. I live in the Northern Suburbs of Wollongong; just south of Sydney, NSW Australia.
I joined Stampin' Up! in August 2008. I'm having a great time playing with ink and paper and sharing my creations with you.
Thank you for visiting me in my corner of the blogosphere. I hope I inspire you along the way. I hold regular classes and workshops in my studio in East Corrimal and offer classes and tutorials by mail. I hope I can share stamping with you and your friends soon.
Take a look around. If I can help you with any of the gorgeous Stampin' Up! products please don't hesitate to ask me.
Happy creating,
Jenny
I have another Everlasting Beauty Card for you. I have actually loved creating these cards. I’m not a huge lover of colouring but these have been relatively easy to colour.
The Waratah flower was coloured with the Pencils. The paper mat is from the Inked Botanicals Designer Series Paper.
The sentiment is from the Cheerful Daisies Stamp set. It was stamped in Versamark on black card and heat embossed in white.
The Everlasting Beauty stamp set is so lovely. It’s great that many of these lovely flowers are found in Australia.
If you would like this stamp set to create beautiful projects then you can grab this from my store -> HERE. Please use the Host Code: QXJQDQ9U OR contact me directly.
I hope you get to create some beautiful cards with this set.
I’m sharing this card with you today but I can tell you it nearly didn’t happen. I coloured the flowers from the Everlasting Beauty stamp set – and I hated it! I tossed it aside and that was my crafting done for the day. Do you ever feel like that??
The next day I picked it up. I still didn’t love it but thought maybe I could do something with it. So I finished the card and actually it wasn’t so bad. So here it is.
The flowers were coloured with the Stampin’ Blends. And the flowers were stamped in Gorgeous Grape on White card to create a background. The Old Olive card strip was embossed with the Stripes and Splatters 3D Embossing Folder. The sentiment is from the Go-To Greetings Stamp Set.
So I thought I would share – if you feel discouraged with a card firstly, don’t be hard on yourself. If need be step away from it, put it aside. Later maybe come back with fresh eyes and see that it may not be too bad. And really aren’t we our worst critic.
Have a Happy day and Be Kind to yourself.
Jenny

I recently held my Winter Crafternoon event at a local Tea Room. It’s always such a lovely afternoon of crafting and Devonshire Tea. I thought I would share some photos with you especially if you missed it all on Facebook and Instagram.
Gift Bags I made for everyone.
I purchased the brown gift bags from a local discount shop and dressed them up with the Les Shoppes Designer Series Paper shopfronts. The paper mat pieces under the shopfronts were using retired Designer Series Paper.
Here is a close-up of 2 of them.
Isn’t’ the sentiment just so sweet?? 🙂 This is from the Irresistible Blooms stamp set.
We have the Treat Bags. I added some retired Glimmer Paper and ribbon and of course a chocolate treat. It’s a must isn’t it. 😉 The topper of the bag was using the retired paper to match the Gift Bags.
Some of the crafting fun.
And Yummy Devonshire Tea. This was held at Sugar, Butter, Eggs Tea Room if you are in the Woonona area. You really must go.
I think this will be a regular event on the calendar each year. It is such a special time.

Another fun card with the Les Shoppes Designer Series Paper for Day 4. Today we are clothes shopping.
A window was diecut from the Misty Moonlight card mat with Nested Essentials Dies and a piece of the Les Shoppes Designer Series Paper adhered underneath before adding it to the white card base.
A strip of Calypso Coral card was embossed with the Cane Weave 3D Embossing Folder for added texture. The sentiment is from the Sending Smiles stamp set.
The image of the Shopfront was fussy cut from the paper.
