Last weekend was my Christmas in July event. Lots of festive fun and crafting.
I will share the projects over the time but in this post I thought I would share the Goodie Bags everyone received.
They were just simple white Lunch Sack/Paper type bags. They had some of the Graceful Greenery Vellum and Berries and Pearls Adhesives. Along with some Christmas goodies. And chocolate. Must have chocolate. 🙂
For the bags I diecut the paper using the Perennial Postage Dies. It was a wide enough strip that was to have the bottom edge over the paper and the rest of the strip went through the inside of the die to lie on top. If that makes sense. Just so the bottom edge would be cut. The paper was retired paper from last year.
The label was diecut from the Greetings of the Seaon dies and the words were from the stamp set. To finish I diecut a green leaf spray with the Golden Greenery Dies and a Pearl to finish.
Stop back again and I will share the projects.
Happy Crafting,
Jenny

I had a little play over the weekend just for me. I checked out the Colour Inkspirations Challenge and created along with the colours for this week.
The CI 169 colours for this week were: Basic Beige, Blueberry Bushel, Misty Moonlight and Night of Navy.
I had the Leaf Collection stamp out from other creating so thought I would try these colours with this stamp. This is the result.
I used the Emboss Resist Technique and then sponged over the different colours in different areas over the white card. It gives it a Batik style to the look.
To do this technique – Ink up the stamp in Versamark. Press the stamp on to the card and pour over the Clear Embossing Powder. Heat to melt the powder. Then with the Blending Brushes rub over ink in different parts. You will get some ink on the Embossed areas but that’s ok. Wipe off the excess ink with a tissue.
Heat Embossing is one of my favourite techniques.
You can join in with this colour challenge. Head to the Facebook group there. If you are not already a member then request to join. Then add your projects too. There is a different colour challenge every 2 weeks.
Happy Crafting,

Sunday Suites. We need to have a look at this gorgeous new Season of Green and Gold Suite.
I mean I’m a green fan so of course I’m going to like it but the leafy green colours are beautiful.
This Suite was just released as part of the new offerings for the Online Exclusives.
This is the Season of Green Suite Collection. There are lots of loveliness in this suite.
The Suite includes:
Greetings of the Season Bundle
Golden Greenery Bundle
Season of Green and Gold Specialty Designer Series Paper
Graceful Greenery Vellum Specialty Designer Series Paper
Very Vanilla Satin Ribbon – 9.1m (10 yards) and is 1.9cm (3/4″) wide
Cherry Cobbler and Pearl Adhesive Backed Berries – 64 pieces in total in Cherry Cobbler and Vanilla
There are 2 different bundles. You can choose them both or only one of them.
The Golden Greenery Bundle. I particularly like the foliage dies.
The Greetings of the Season Bundle. This one is so versatile. I love the dies in this bundle.
But this paper…
The Season of Green and Gold Specialty Designer Series Paper.
It comes in 12 12″x12″ sheets. 2 of 6 patterns. It has green patterns with glistening gold accents. You really have to see it. The colours in this paper are Garden Green, gold, Mossy Meadow, Old Olive, Pecan Pie, Very Vanilla.
There is also the Graceful Greenery Vellum Specialty Designer Series Paper.
It comes in 6 12″x12″ sheets. 2 each of 3 single sided designs. The printed foliage patterns can be used as a layering piece on cards and tags.
I have just got hold of some of these lovelies and while I start creating with it let’s check some of the projects that Stampin’ Up! have created with this gorgeous suite.
Don’t just think of it for Christmas with those lovely leafy images and the dies.

And it’s Bonus Days. Which means for your $90 order you receive a Bonus Card to redeem towards your order in August.
Wednesday’s WOW! #163 – A Watercolour Wash on your images.
You might have tried Watercolour Washing over your card to create a background, but have you tried giving your stamped images a wash? It creates a really soft look.
Stamp your image on to Watercolour Paper. This one uses the Painted Lavender stamp set. Spritz over the image lightly with water. Allow to dry for a short time. Then stamp over the washed area again with the same image. You will get a mottled look with a wash in the background. It looks really lovely.
Hope you get to try it out. I have added this image below so you can save it to try later.
Happy Crafting,
