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
Wednesday’s WOW! #129 – Creating a Christmas tree with the Merriest Moments stamp set.
I have shared a lot of projects with the Merriest Moments bundle recently. This card was one shown in my 5 Ways with the Merriest Moments Video I shared in a recent post. Just back a few posts to find it if you missed it.
For this card I wanted to show you how to create the Christmas tree with the “branch” stamp. If you are on my Facebook page or Instagram I share a quick video for it. You can check that out but I will share a step-by-step image for you.
You can shop the Merriest Moments Bundle in my store now -> HERE. Australian residents. ($94.50 AUD) Please use the Host Code: F4PDXAY7
Or contact me directly.
BONUS: During October I’m extending Sale-A-Bration. Choose an extra gift with your orders over $90 AUD. Get in soon to get your pick.
I love the detail in the Merriest Frames Hybrid Embossing Folder. Just having those little “snowflakes” gives it some cute texture. The Soft Succulent card mat was embossed with the embossing folder. Then the piece of Tidings of Christmas DSP was diecut and then embossed with the folder.
Add the sentiment on the diecut stitched rectangle from the dies. Adding a Cherry Cobbler mat under the sentiment gives it the POP. Then to finish add some stamped poinsettia flowers and leaves and some of that gorgeous Cherry Cobbler/Gold ribbon.
Be ready for another card with the Merriest Moments Bundle in the next post.
Have you seen the Merriest Moments Bundle?? Gorgeous!

The card in today’s video I showed briefly in the last video 2 weeks ago. I showed 5 ways to use the Merriest Moments Bundle. I shared the cards on other social media channels and had a huge response to this particular card.
I thought I would create a video just on this card particularly with some tips in putting it together. I hope you find it helpful.
Check out the video below.
Note: If you missed the last video on 5 ways with the Merriest Moments bundle be sure to head back a few posts or you can go to to Youtube -> HERE and see it.
The Merriest Moments Bundle is gorgeous and has been very popular. I hope you can grab it for your Christmas creating.

It’s World Cardmaking Day (Weekend). A time for us crafters to celebrate all that we love with ink, paper and stamps. And more importantly a reminder to send out those cards to let others know they are thought of.
So for Sunday Suites today I thought we would check this Suite out. The In Symmetry Suite. It’s a great one for those “feel good” “thinking of you” type cards. T
Check this In Symmetry Suite out. It’s a funky folk art style suite.
The Sweet Symmetry Suite Collection includes – In Symmetry Stamp Set* – Symmetrical Stems Punch* – Sweet Symmetry Designer Series Paper – Flirty Flamingo Gold Metallic Ribbon
*Get the stamps and punch as a bundle and save 10%.
Let’s look closer.
The In Symmetry Bundle ($52 AUD). How fun is the font in these sentiments? They are great words to send on a card too.
This shows how the Symmetrical Stems Punch works. You can create a border of stems or use the punched out stems separately on your project.
The Sweet Symmetry Designer Series Paper. I wouldn’t have thought to use these colours together. The colours are Bumblebee, Calypso Coral, Flirty Flamingo, Just Jade, Night of Navy
The Flirty Flamingo Metallic Ribbon. It is really pretty – and sparkly. 🙂
Now for some samples. (Created by the Stampin’ Up! artists).

Another card for you with the Penguin Playmates Designer Series Paper available for Sale-A-Bration.
Last day for Sale-A-Bration folks. Don’t forget to get your order in.
Just a little stamping for the sentiment from the For Unto Us Stamp set but the paper is the star with the panel piece and the banner. The card mat was embossed with the Merry Melody 3D Embossing Folder for some added texture.
I’m sad that this paper is ending now. I hope you can grab some with your orders over $90 AUD. You could use it for birthdays and other occasions not just Christmas.
