3D projects – Page 22 – A Stamping Journey

I am a little behind with my blogging lately. Life is busy and with Josh studying on the computer a lot at the moment with the HSC I have had little access to the computer. BUT I am here now. Just squeezing in a little time while he is still in bed!

By now you would have known about the wonderful new products released just this past week. I thought I would show you what I have been doing with them.

Firstly, have you seen the new Thinlets Card dies??? These make fun, interactive cards in no time. Check them out.

These come in the Labels shape or the circle and come with lots of other fun bits to add to your cards. They are $55.95. I had a chance to play with Leonie’s circle thinlets the other day as I am still waiting on mine to arrive. (Thank you Leonie). Here is a fun, birthday card to create.

I have used the set ‘Sketched Birthday’ and the paper is from ‘Birthday Basics’. This is really a great pack of paper. I think it gets lost in the catalogue. Leonie kindly gave me a piece. (Thanks again Leonie!!!). You are a star 🙂

I think it was the 1 3/4″ circle punch I used to punch the circle in Summer Starfruit card and the Whisper White scallop circle is the 1 3/4″ scallop circle. I added a little bling to this too.

Now on to the Envelope Punch Board. I have been having so much fun with this new little gadget. You MUST have one of these. Not only does it cut up to 66 different size envelopes BUT there are so many other fun boxes and projects you can do with it PLUS it has a corner rounder punch on it if you need one for any of your projects.

Here are some little treat pouches I have been making with them.

Made with the ‘Sweater Weather DSP’ and ‘Label Love’ stamp set. I added a little Burlap Ribbon. Add a little treat and this might be a good one for the men in your life???

How about a Christmas one with the ‘Season of Style’ DSP.

The label is from ‘Chalk Talk’ and stamped in Gumball Green. The ornament is one from the ‘Best of Christmas’ sets and stamped in Cherry Cobbler. You could add ribbon and hang these in the Christmas tree with a special Christmas treat. These are the right size to hold a Gift card. If you want to make one you can use the Gift card size shown on the Envelope Punch Board. The original idea came from Angie over at Chic N Scratch here.

Here is a little sneak of another project I created using the Envelope Punch Board. If you are on my Facebook Business page you would have already seen it. (BTW: You can click on the link in the right hand column and ‘LIKE’ my page to see my projects I show there). I will show you the rest of this project in the new few days.

So I hope you grab yourself the Thinlets Cards Dies AND the Envelope Punch Board. I can tell you they are essential 😉

Have a good day however you spend it.

MINI CHRISTMAS TAGS

September 30, 2013September 30, 2013 Jenny Hayward

A couple of weeks ago just before our last team meeting I realised I hadn’t done swaps yet. These are not compulsory but I really hadn’t done any for a few months and yet another meeting comes by and I haven’t got anything to share. What was I going to do??? It was a couple of hours before I had to leave. I did a quick trawl on Pinterest. Isn’t that your ‘go to’ site!!!! I found some little Christmas tags that inspired me. So thought I would create some little simple tags similar to the ones I saw.

Here are the ones I created. It is not the best photo as I was just dashing out the door to leave. I gave everyone a couple of them each. I know it is only a small token BUT it was something. I realised I didn’t even keep any for myself though! DOH!

I used the Chalk Talk Framelits to cut the tags from Whisper White and Crumb Cake. I punched out little shapes using the Merry Minis punch pack. Did you know these were still available??? They are very cute. I adhered these to the tags and added a Rhinestone on the ones cut from coloured card. Then I added a small greeting. These ones are from Petite Pairs and Teeny Tiny Sentiments. I added some co-ordinating twine to finish them off. Job done in record time. I will just have to be a bit more organised next time. 🙂 Have a great day in your part of the world. It’s a lovely sunny day here. I think Summer has hit us early.

Till next time,

Jenny

STAMPIN’ UP! BOUTIQUE BOXES!

June 13, 2013June 13, 2013 Jenny Hayward

I have had the Boutique Boxes Kit since the Seasonal Catalogue came out. I put some together a few months back and then I was so busy with Convention Swaps that I didn’t get back to them. The other day I was pacing the floor waiting for the delivery man with my preorder (yes, you can relate to that!) and saw them sitting in my craft room. I thought it was time I got back to finishing them before I started on new projects. You can find the Boutique Boxes Designer Printed Kit on p25 of the Seasonal Catalogue and it only $13.95. There are 8 die-cut boxes in the set you assemble (very easily with 1 piece of Sticky Strip). There is also a sheet of paper die-cuts, Crumb Cake Twine and some buttons. Everything you need to assemble them!

You will notice there are only 7 here. Ok, I really stuffed one up and that was filed nicely in my recycling bin. 🙂

On these I used a lot of the embellishments in the set but there was still some over you could add to cards. I added a Paper Lace Doily on one and Summer Starfruit Scallop circle but you could easily do without them. These are an ideal size to give a Gift Card in or something small like that. Remember there is only a couple of weeks left of the Seasonal Catalogue so if you want to get any of these products then grab them soon.

Thanks for stopping by. My Delivery Man arrived. I have varnished my wood Blocks and need to get creating!!

“CHOCOLATE HEART OF HEARTS”

February 14, 2013 Jenny Hayward

Happy Valentine’s Day everyone!!! I hope you have had a lovely day. We don’t celebrate Valentine’s Day in a big way here in Australia. Maybe a gift or some chocolate for a loved one??? I had made up a little bag of chocolate treats for my family. I have to say I was totally surprised to get a bunch of flowers from my husband this morning!!! 🙂

Today I had a workshop and I thought it would be nice to give the guests a little Valentine treat. It was a last minute decision so it was nothing fancy.

The Whisper White heart is cut with the Scalloped Heart of Hearts Embosslits. I hadn’t realised until I was making these that they have tiny little hearts embossed on the heart. Maybe I have just been a bit blind! I found these little chocolate hearts at the discount store which was perfect for them. The ‘For You’ is from Itty Bitty Banners and I cut a red banner from the ‘Bitty Banners’ Framelits also. I stuck these behind the chocolate heart and I had just enough of the retired red Grosgrain ribbon to add a loop on them. I think the guests liked their little chocolate surprise today.

Off to bed for me now. See you next time,

Jenny

CHOCOLATE TREE!!

December 31, 2012December 31, 2012 Jenny Hayward

Ok, one more Christmas creation before New Year. I just really wanted to show you this one. I found the tutorial for these recently on Brenda’s blog here. It is really clever. Just after I saw this I found the Kisses and Mini Hershey bars at a local discount store. I was so excited because they are really hard to come by here and YAY! now I could make them!!

Here is my Chocolate Tree.

Here is a view from the top.

Do you like it? Once you get the folding right for the triangles in the middle they are really easy. They would make a really nice gift to give at Christmas. A bit late for this year but maybe file the idea away for next year!!!

Wishing you a Very Happy 2013. Stay safe as you celebrate. I want you all to be healthy and well for another year of creating and sharing.

See you next year!

MERRY CHRISTMAS BANNER!

December 26, 2012December 29, 2012 Jenny Hayward

How was your Christmas? I hope you had a lovely day. They weather changed considerably here yesterday with rain and much cooler temperatures. This changed our plans a bit but it all worked out. Nothing like coziness with all the family on Christmas Day!!!

I know Christmas has now gone but I still want to show you this project. I have been meaning to make one of these Christmas Banners for months. I have looked around the internet but just wasn’t sure what to do. On the weekend just gone I thought I should just ‘DO IT!!’ So I did!

Here is my Christmas Banner.

It is hard to see it all here so I will show you some close-up shots.

What I have used:

CARD: Gumball Green, Cherry Cobbler, Silver Glimmer Paper, Very Vanilla, ‘Be of Good Cheer’ DSP.

BIG SHOT: Timeless Type Alphabet (retired), Vintage Wallpaper Embossing Folder, Snow Flurry Die, Top Note Die.

OTHER: Scallop Circle Punch, 2 step Owl Punch (centre of Snowflake), Cherry Cobbler Seam Binding, Adhesive Rhinestones.

I hope you like it???? It was fun to create.

Enjoy the rest of your Christmas celebrations and I look forward to you stopping by again soon.

FOLDED PAPER CHRISTMAS ORNAMENT

December 20, 2012December 20, 2012 Jenny Hayward

Did you enjoy the Christmas boxes I shared with you last week? I hope it might have inspired you. If you missed them just head back to the previous posts. I showed a different box each day for a week. Today I want to show you a Christmas Ornament I recently made.

I quite like all the curls on this. I found the idea originally on Pinterest. The directions for making this can be found here. (Just a note: It is in Chinese but it has photos and is fairly easy to work out).

This was made with the “Be of Good Cheer” DSP. I added some Cherry Cobbler Seam Binding and Lace to finish it off. I have been debating whether it needs a Christmas sentiment but I didn’t want to hide the curls. Maybe a little one down the bottom???

I hope your plans for Christmas are coming together well. Most of the presents here are wrapped. A couple of things I ordered On-line still haven’t arrived, so I think I will be making some ‘IOU’ tags.

Thanks for stopping by,

Jenny
