HOMEMADE TREATS BUNDLE FOR SWEET SUNDAY ~

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 ~

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,

Jenny

FRAMED PEACEFUL GARDEN WITH LOVE CARD

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.

Happy Crafting,

STAMPIN’ UP! RUSTIC CENTERPIECE FOR CHRISTMAS ~

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,

Jenny

FLORAL CHARM MINI THANK YOU CARDS

I shared the Sunflower Embossing Folder in last post. We have some more Mini Thank You Cards.

These ones are using the Floral Charm Designer Series Paper. These are little 10.5cm x10.5cm (4″x4″) cards.

I had some “bits” from other cards I didn’t use so added these. On one card I had a diecut piece from the Branching Out Bundle and added some extra diecut leaves for the card. On the other card I had some coloured flowers from the Charming Day Bundle. It worked well with the colours in the paper.

I like sending out little Thank You cards and some “surprises” when they order. I appreciate each and every one. And I think they all love those little surprises.

STAMPIN’ UP! SUNFLOWER EMBOSSING FOLDER THANK YOU CARD

I’m making up some little Thank You Cards to send out to my lovely customers when they order. For the cards recently I have been using some “left-over” bits.

This one I was playing around with the Sunflower Embossing Folder. I fussy cut one of the sunflowers. I was going to add it to a previous card and then it didn’t work out. But not to waste it. I add it to this little Mini Card.

I had a small scrap piece of the Florals in Bloom Paper and trimmed it down for the front of the card. The sentiment from Simply Said set was stamped on some Lemon Lolly card.

I will share some more of these Mini Thank You cards very soon.

Happy Crafting,

Jenny

DISTRESSED SUNFLOWER EMBOSSING FOLDER CARD ~

I have been meaning to show some more cards with the Sunflower Embossing Folder. I shared a number of the cards in my recent video but it might be good to see them close up.

This one is more a distressed looking card.

I embossed with the folder on a piece of the “wood” look pattern from the Nests of Winter Paper pack. You could use any similar print.

Then you can add your colouring. This one I used the Ink Pads and Blending Brushes then assembled it on the card base with a piece of Old Olive card off-set a little. I think curling up the edges of the embossed piece might have given a more distressed look.

I have had so much fun with this Embossing Folder. I hope to get back to you again soon with some more card projects soon.

If you missed it you can see the video of 5+ Ways with the Sunflower Embossing Folder -> HERE.

cards, Christmas, Stampin' Up!, Sunday Suites

SUNDAY SUITES – TRADITIONS OF CHRISTMAS SUITE!

Sunday Suites with the Traditions of Christmas Suite. If you love the classic red and greens for Christmas and the Holly and Poinsettias then you will love this.

The Traditions of Christmas Suite Collection includes:

  • Traditional Labels Bundle
  • Christmas Greenery Bundle
  • Traditions of Christmas Specialty Designer Series Paper
  • Real Red 1/2″ (1.3cm) Shiny Ribbon 10 Yards (9.1m)
  • Traditional Sparkling Sequins 240 adhesive-backed pieces 60mm each of 4 colours. 4mm, 5mm, 6mm.

The Traditional Labels Bundle contains individual sentiments that can be used together or by themselves and not just for Christmas so it is a versatile one. But I do like the Dies set with this one with the different shape dies.

The Christmas Greenery Bundle contains the poinsettia and greenery stamps and has coordinating dies to diecut the images plus a number of different shaped leaves to create Christmas floral arrangements.

The Traditions of Christmas Specialty Paper has touches of Gold through it which is really striking. It has the classic Christmas flowers and leaves like the Poinsettias and Holly. The paper is 12″x12″ with colours of Cherry Cobbler, gold, Old Olive, Pool Party, Real Red, Secret Sea.

The Traditional Wreath Embossing Folder. Note this Embossing Folder is very large. It is 6″ x 6-1/4″ (15.2 x 15.9 cm). So bigger than your standard Card Size you would just have a touch of texture on it. It is pretty though with lots of detail.

The Real Red Shiny Ribbon is very shimmery which really adds a delicate, soft touch to cards and gift packaging. In addition there is the Traditional Sparkling Sequins.

Here are some samples with these gorgeous products.

Are you a Classic Red and Green with the traditional flowers and foliage. This will be for you. See it more -> HERE.

If you need supplies I would love to help you get these if you are in Australia? You can stop by my store at the above link OR Contact me directly.

Happy Sunday,

A SANDMAN WITH THE STAMPIN’ UP! FESTIVE FRIENDS BUNDLE ~

I couldn’t resist. I recently got the Festive Friends Bundle. They are cute characters in this one BUT for our Hot Christmas time in Australia with many heading to the beach I couldn’t help but make the snowman a Sandman.

I remember so many times at the beach when I was young creating big mounds of sand and decorating it with seaweed for hair and added sticks and shells. And at Christmas time you did add a Santa Hat. Such fun memories.

So the Festive Friends snowman became a Sandman. Not too many shells or seaweed on this one but still all dressed up for Christmas.

The Sandman was coloured with the Stampin’ Blends and the shells were from the Notes and Totes Dies set. The paper worked well with it. This was from the Peaceful Garden Designer Series Paper pack.

I had a lot of fun colouring this character. I have created with the other characters too so I will get back to you soon on those ones.

This is the Festive Friends Bundle. It has some fun little additional elements too with the trees and snowflakes and a tag shape. See it more -> HERE.
