A BEACHY CARD WITH THE NOTES AND TOTES BUNDLE ~

Jenny Hayward

I have recently got the Notes and Totes Bundle. I have seen so many cute cards with this one. So I had a play this week.

This was one of the first cards I made with it. I will say it took a little bit to see how the little tote worked. And when I came to make a little tote without a card I was uncertain with that. But that one is for another day and I will share some tips.

For now this cute card. It gives you those Beach Day Vibes.

The actual Tote is created with the Nests of Winter Paper. (Did you know that was still current??). The pattern works well for a Tote.

You then Diecut the little pieces – the straps and handles and base for the Tote, then you have the “cream tube” and the water bottle. Then assembling the sunglasses. I had a couple of attempts working out those. (That will be for another day too).

For the “sand” I tore a strip of Crumb Cake card then stamped the “dotted” stamp over it.

This is the Notes and Totes Bundle.

You can see it more Online -> HERE.

If you would like to order and you are in Australia I would love to help you get this or any other products for your crafting. I send out a little special surprise as a Thank You.

FRAMED PRETTY FLORALS CARD – SAME BUT DIFFERENT!

Jenny Hayward

I have been playing a lot with the Pretty Florals Bundle. I have shared some different ones already. These 2 cards are very similar. There are just some variations.

They have the same paper, the Florals in Bloom Paper, and I have created the black frames to really highlight the flowers. You might be able to tell the differences though.

The one with the Fresh Freesia flowers is using the larger diecut flower and the outline edge. I sponged over a little Fresh Freesia ink to add some extra definition. This one is on a Fresh Freesia Card Base. The sentiment is from the Simply Said Stamp Set and diecut with the Mixed Labels Dies. We made this one in our class last week using the Pretty Florals Bundle.

The other one is with the small pink flowers. The flowers are in Pretty In Pink and the little edges, (Not sure what you would call them) are in the Strawberry Slush. This one has a Pretty In Pink Card Base. The sentiment on this one is from the Stippled Roses Stamp Set I think.

So which one do you prefer?

This is a great bundle. I have had a lot of fun creating with it.

SPARKLE WITH THE BEAUTIFUL BUTTERFLIES ~

Jenny Hayward

Back to more Butterfly cards. I have used the Beautiful Butterflies a lot!

This was one of the cards we made at class last week for my Card Buffet. It’s simple but with the diecut butterfly shape cut in paper it adds an extra element. The paper is from the Mixed Media Florals Paper. Then a little sparkle in Glimmer Paper was added. Got to love a sparkly, fluttery butterfly!

The wavy Embossed background gives a look of movement for the butterfly too. The Soft Waves Embossing Folder is a great versatile Folder. You don’t have to just use it for wavy seas.

The sentiment is from the Labeled With Love Stamp Set.

Happy Crafting,

Jenny

SWEET SUNDAY WITH PARTY PANDAS STAMP SET ~

Jenny Hayward

I am loving pandas at the moment. They are so cute and clumsy. I remembered the Party Pandas Stamp Set. I sold mine some time ago after it retired. I was sad about that. It is such a cute set.

BUT, I received a new set on Mother’s Day last weekend. I was excited. So I spent Mother’s Day afternoon creating with it. These are the cards I came up with.

On the Left Hand Card, I used the Soft Waves Embossing Folder. The rectangle is diecut with one of the Textured Notes Dies. The Thinking of You is from the With You In Mind Stamp Set.

On the Right Hand Card the paper is from the Mixed Media Florals Pack.

I think I will have a bit of fun creating with these Pandas.

STAMPIN’ UP! PRETTY FLORALS AND FLORALS IN BLOOM ~

Jenny Hayward

Sometimes you make a card and you are really not sure. You keep looking at it and wonder. There is something not quite right. This was one of those cards. I’m just not sure.

I thought I would show you anyway. It’s the first card I made with the new Pretty Florals Bundle and working with the new 2025 In Colors. Something just wasnt working for me.

I CASED the layout of a card from a recent catalogue by Stampin’ Up! artists. That looked really nice but it just didn’t seem to work with this one. That’s ok though. It happens.

Here we have the card.

The In Colors I used on this one are Secret Sea, Cloud Cover and the Timid Tiger. I also used Peach Pie with it which works well.

I have created more with this bundle. I have shared some already but will share more soon.

This is the Pretty Florals Bundle. It’s a 2-Step Stamp Set you can layer together.

Watch out for more with these.

Happy Crafting,

CREATE A WINDOW FLAP FOLD CARD + A VIDEO!

Jenny Hayward

This week’s video is a Window Flap Fold Card. It gives a little surprise when you start opening the card.

This is the card when it is closed up.

I used the Florals in Bloom Designer Series Paper. It has such lovely colours and prints in the pack. The flowers are from the Pretty Florals Bundle. These are new in the 2025 Annual Catalogue just out this week.

When you open the card…

The sentiment is from the Loveliest Tree Stamp Set. For the window you can use any shape but I think circles do work best.

This is the inside.

I’m going to show you how easy it is to make one yourself. So follow along in the video.

You can follow along with the video HERE or on Youtube. I share the measurements in Metric and Imperial.

This is just one of them.

These Pretty Florals Dies are – well pretty. 😀

They are part of the Pretty Florals Bundle with the Stamps and Dies. The paper is The Florals in Bloom Paper. There is gorgeous flower prints. For this card I chose the subtle pattern so as not to clash with the flowers.

And you can’t see the full shine on the side of the card but that is from the Flower Garden Foils Specialty Paper.

Here is the Florals in Bloom Paper.

This is the Pretty Florals Bundle. I particularly like the dies to layer together.

STAMPIN’ UP! WILDFLOWER BIRTHDAY – ME TO YOU

Jenny Hayward

In my Facebook Group this week I have set a little “Creative Spark” post to perhaps inspire the members creating.

This week it was to use 2 different pieces of patterned paper on their cards. So of course I created too. This was my card.

I used the Wildflower Birthday Specialty Paper. It has gorgeous paper prints as well as Diecut images and pieces ready to use. I love that this can make creating a lot quicker.

I used a sketch to create the card. The square Birthday Cake image was cut with the Stylish Shapes Dies to add some extra detail and layered on a Old Olive Card Mat.

The sentiment is from the Bright Borders Stamp Set and cut with one of the dies from the Mixed Labels Dies. A little flower piece was added that was in the diecut paper pack.

So why not try this yourself. Grab 2 different pieces of patterned paper and create a card. If you need to check out a Card Sketch to work with to help you put the card together.

If you haven’t seen the Wildflower Birthday Specialty Paper before this is the pack.

You can see it more Online -> HERE. You can order there or Contact me directly. I would love to help you get that pretty paper.

Happy Creating

STAMPIN’ UP! FLOWERS OF BEAUTY IS LEAVING!

Jenny Hayward

The Stampin’ Up! Flowers of Beauty with the Stamps and Dies will be leaving. This was another card from our Retiring Class which didn’t end up happening last week. But I can show you.

For this card I CASED a card I made last year with the bundle and changed up the colours.

This one is in Lost Lagoon colour and I used the Everyday Happiness Designer Series Paper. The colours are soft and pretty in this pack.

I love the new Textured Notes Dies. Each Diecut rectangle has a different edge to it which adds just the extra element of interest.

To create the small frame I used the Something Fancy Dies. Which are also retiring. I used 2 frames together on the coloured card to cut the frame.

This is the Pretty in Pink version I made last year.

Which colour do you prefer?

If you want to get these Flowers of Beauty Stamps and Dies you will want to be quick.
