SWEET SUNDAY WITH THE CAKE DAY BUNDLE ~

Jenny Hayward

It’s Sweet Sunday time. And it is literally sweet if this was real.

Try this cake with the layers and drizzling icing. Add some Macarons and meringes and sprinkles. You can even add the candles and sparklers. At least with this version you would be safe from a sugar coma.

This is created with the Cake Day Bundle just released. A die can create a folded cake piece card which is cool. Or add the front piece just to your card. Then add the fun elements.

This is the Cake Day Bundle. This has just been released as Online Exclusives. You can see it more -> HERE.

Happy Crafting,

Jenny

CLASSY GOLD WITH THE STAMPIN’ UP! ORNAMENTAL CHRISTMAS BUNDLE ~

Jenny Hayward

I have played a lot with the Stampin’ Up! Ornamental Christmas Bundle and the Modern Christmas Specialty Paper. It is so gorgeous.

For this one I added a little more classy gold.

To create this diecut an ornament shape from Gold Foil then position it in the Christmas Words Collage Embossing Folder. You can see the words to get the best place. Then emboss through your Diecut Machine.

Also diecut an ornament from the lovely Modern Christmas paper too. Add a strip of black card and then some diecut gold dots.

If you don’t have this particular bundle you could still get a similar look. You may have another ornament style punch or die and even a different Embossing Folder. Gold adds a lot of class for your Christmas cards.

Happy Crafting.

FLIP IT FUN FOLD CARD + VIDEO

Jenny Hayward

Today’s video is a Flip It card. I don’t know what it’s actual name is but that’s what I call it. I’m going to show you how.

This is the card.

The front panel stands up when you Flip It.

Then when it lays flat.

It is a little larger than a standard card so you may need to make an envelope to fit or give it directly to your special person. You may want to explain how it flips too so they can see the fun of it (and give you a WOW!)

I used the cute Festive Friends Stamps and Dies. You can create this for any occasion whether it is Christmas or Birthday or some other special event.

Here is the video to create your own Or head straight to my Youtube.

Hope you get to make one. As always I will send the writtent tutorial to my Newsletter Subscribers next week. I send out a Tutorial each week. If you would like to receive my Tutorials then you can subscribe to them. The Tab is on the Right Hand Side Bar on my blog.

Happy Crafting,

WEDNESDAY’S WOW! 170 – ADD COLOUR ON YOUR EMBOSSED CARD

Jenny Hayward

Wednesday’s WOW! #170 – Colour your Embossed Card with Ink.

If you have an embossed image on white card sometimes it can be a little plain. You can add a little colour to lift it. Of course you could swipe the Inkpad over the Embossing Folder before or after embossing, but try a little light watercolouring with your Water Painter and Ink Pads. It can really highlight the detail.

This one is with the Traditional Wreath Embossing Folder but you could try it with most folders.

Try it out.

HOMEMADE TREATS BUNDLE FOR SWEET SUNDAY ~

Jenny Hayward

Sweet Sunday with the Homemade Treats Bundle.

I’m not a baker. And really not that great a cook. I will admit it. But I might be able to handle this one.

The Homemade Treats Bundle is a cute one. It has the Dies to cut little gingerbread men, and candy canes and other baking goodies, even a baking tray. How fun!

This would make great cards but how great would this be to dress up some cookies to give at Christmas. In my case maybe I can dress up some store bought cookies. 🙂 I will stick to making the cards and tags.

This is the Homemade Treats Bundle.

Even fun little sentiments for your baked goodies.

The card is cute but dress up some cookies too.

You can see the Homemade Treats Bundle in my store -> HERE.

If you need this one for your baked goodies or for cards for a wannabe cook (raising my hand), then you can grab it there OR contact me.

Happy Crafting,

Jenny

STAMPIN’ UP! BRANCHING OUT BUNDLE WHILE FLIPPING THE PEACEFUL GREENERY EMBOSSING FOLDER ~

Jenny Hayward

We had our Branching Out Class last week. We made 3 different cards with this Bundle. It is so diverse and I will show you the cards over time but this is one of them.

We embossed the Mossy Meadow Card Mat with the Peaceful Greenery Embossing Folder. Then diecut the leaf stems and the pinecones.

While I was sitting in the class I assembled one of the cards and decided to flip the embossed Card Mat. It gives a different impression but still looks ok I think.

What do you think? I don’t think there is a right or wrong with this folder. It just gives a different impression for your project.

If you are a Wollongong local I would love to see you at our classes. They have a lot of fun. I usually advertise them here on my blog or on my website or Facebook. If you still can’t find them contact me. It would be great to see you.

Hope you get some creative time in soon,

FRAMED PEACEFUL GARDEN WITH LOVE CARD

Jenny Hayward

Today’s card is one with the gorgeous Peaceful Garden Designer Series Paper.

The frame is created with the Branching Out Dies from Cloud Cover cardstock. This was embossed with the Damask Designs Embossing Folder. I cut a piece of that lovely paper to adhere to the back and then raised the piece off the Base Card with Dimensionals. This gives the card extra dimension and texture.

Isn’t the sentiment so lovely?? That was diecut with one of the circles from the Stylish Shapes Dies.

It’s a simple card but what more do you need.

Try it with any of your papers and embossing folders. You can create the frame with any shape too. Maybe a rectangle or even a circle.

STAMPIN’ UP! RUSTIC CENTERPIECE FOR CHRISTMAS ~

Jenny Hayward

I made this weeks ago but just remembering to share with you now.

This one is with the Rustic Centerpiece Stamp Set. It’s a set with images that can be used for different occasions through the year.

I like the rustic deer and tree on this one. I coloured it with the Watercolor Pencils. I find them easier to control rather than the Stampin’ Blends or Watercolouring especially when there are finer details.

The sentiment is from the Ornamental Christmas Stamp Set. The paper is with the Nests of Winter Designer Series Paper. It works well for Christmas too.

This is the Rustic Centerpiece Stamp Set.

See it more -> HERE.

I realised I haven’t shared the other cards I have made with this set too. I shared them on my Facebook but missed it here. SO… I will be back soon with those projects.

Crafting time is a little sparse at the moment but I hope to be back soon with some more creating. Especially as we start getting in to the busy Christmas season.

Happy Crafting,
