STAMPIN’ UP! SUNSET COAST – STAMPED OR DIECUT??

Jenny Hayward

I have shared some cards with the Scenic Coast Suite particularly the Sunset Coast Bundle. I have 2 cards to show you today. A Stamped card and a Diecut one. Both of these cards we made at our Class today.

For this one I diecut the circle and then stamped the scene within it. Of course you could stamp and diecut after but it is good to know the area you have to work with. The little “netting” was diecut and cut in half to adhere to both sides of the circle.

The front has “Wherever this note finds you…” and inside on white card it was stamped with “I hope it finds you happy” with some of the little boats as well.

This card below the boat scene was diecut in white and added to some of the Scenic Coast Paper. It looks kind of stormy skies with it clearing ahead don’t you think??

There are lots of ways to create with this bundle. I hope you have caught some of the other projects I have shared.

This is the Sunset Coast Stamps and Dies.

And this is the Scenic Coast Paper. It has such beautiful watercoloured scenes. It comes in 6″x6″.

If you are a Wollongong local why not come along to my classes? Email me to find out more or add a comment and I will get back to you.

STAMPIN’ UP! SCENIC COAST – HOPE ALL THINGS WONDERFUL ARE HEADED YOUR WAY ~

Jenny Hayward

I have been playing with the Scenic Coast Suite this past week. I have lots to share with you over the coming week or 2. So let’s take a trek.

In the Sunset Coast Dies I particularly liked the Circle shaped die. It is different to anything we have had and I think there is lots you can do with it.

It’s a simple card really. Cut a piece of one of the beautiful handpainted prints. Add that to a card mat and then add to the White Card Base.

The sentiment is from the Sending Salutations Stamp Set.

Check back for more with this set in the next coming days if you would like more inspiration with this bundle. I have lots more to add.

HOLE IN THE ROCK WITH THE SCENIC COAST BUNDLE ~

Jenny Hayward

I have been creating a lot with the Scenic Coast Bundle this week. I will share them all with you in the coming week.

Today’s card though is using the stamps to create a scene. I wasn’t sure what direction to take this when I started it but then it happened. And I created a Hole in the Rock scene.

There is a Hole in the Rock in New Zealand just like this that you can cruise through. I did that some years ago one time when I was there.

For the water I stamped it once in the centre and then either side of that to create a wider water scene. The “Hole in the Rock” was stamped in Pecan Pie for the solid image and Early Espresso for the shadow areas. It creates more depth when doing that.

It is hard to but I also stamped the smaller “water” stamp over the Night of Navy card in 3 areas to create the background. I considered embossing with an embossing folder but it worked ok for a subtle background.

The Hello is from the Simply Said Stamp Set.

This is the Sunset Coast Stamps and Dies.

Check back over the next week as I share more with these stamps and dies and the paper.

Happy Crafting,

Jenny

5 MINUTES, 5 DAYS, 5 WAYS WITH THE OPULENT OASIS BUNDLE – DAY 4

Jenny Hayward

Day 4 of our series – 5 Minutes, 5 Days, 5 Ways with the Opulent Oasis Bundle.

Have you seen the past videos in this series yet? You can head back to the recent posts if you missed them or would like a refresh.

In Day 4 of these videos let’s see what else you can create with this bundle using just the stamps and dies.

These are the cards I shared in the video.

Hydrangea Hue and Lemon Lime Twist have been a favourite combination recently.

Here is another simple card with these colours and using the Berry Botanicals Vellum Specialty Paper.

The Opulent Oasis Bundle is available in the May-August Catalogue. The Berry Botanicals Vellum Specialty is available as May Product of the Month.

Last Day tomorrow. Be sure to check back in. Let me know what you think of this series too. Would you like to see other Bitesize video series on a bundle or technique?

5 MINUTES, 5 DAYS, 5 WAYS WITH THE OPULENT OASIS BUNDLE – DAY 3

Jenny Hayward

Day 3 of our series – 5 Minutes, 5 Days, 5 Ways with the Opulent Oasis Bundle.

These are small Bitesize videos showing how you can use the Stampin’ Up! Opulent Oasis Bundle. Day 1 looked at using the Impressions Mat with the Dies to get that extra puffiness. Then Day 2 looked at different ways of colouring the embossed/diecut images.

Day 3 I share another way of colouring with the Opulent Oasis Flower. It could be my favourite way. Be sure to check that out. If you don’t have this bundle I’m sure this could easily work with some of your other diecut flowers. Or even an embossed image. Try it out and see.

Here is the Video for Day 3.

Do you want to see more of the card.

The white outlined flower just POPS in Black. Especially against the Strawberry Slush colour. This is easy to create using the White Gel Pen. I embossed the Strawberry Slush card with the Beautiful Pattern Embossing Folder.

I love the effect of the diecut flower but there is lovely stamped images in the set too. See how to create with these in the next 2 videos.

Happy Crafting.

5 MINUTES, 5 DAYS, 5 WAYS WITH THE OPULENT OASIS BUNDLE – DAY 2 

Jenny Hayward

Day 2 of our series – 5 Minutes, 5 Days, 5 Ways with the Opulent Oasis Bundle.

The first video I showed using the Impressions Mat. If you missed that head back a post. This video I showed some different ways of colouring the embossed/diecut flowers.

Hope you get to try these cards out. But if you don’t have the Opulent Oasis Bundle see what you have similar.

Try highlighting the flowers and leaves with Ink and a Dauber.

These 2 above used the Berry Botanicals Vellum Specialty Paper.

Or add some extra colour using Inks and Daubers. Do you think this looks like a Frangipanni Flower?

This one uses the Artisan Sketched Garden Designer Series Paper.

See another way of colouring in the next video.

5 MINUTES, 5 DAYS, 5 WAYS WITH THE OPULENT OASIS BUNDLE – DAY 1

Jenny Hayward

I’m bringing you a new series this week. 5 Minutes, 5 Days, 5 Ways with the Opulent Oasis Bundle. Small bitesize videos to help inspire you when creating with this bundle. But if you don’t have this bundle you might just be able to create these with other stamps/dies you have.

In this video I show you how to use the new Impressions Mat. The mat helps give a little more “puffiness” to the Impressions Dies.

Here is the video for you to follow along.

These are the cards I showed how to make.

Which colour do you like – the Crisp Canteloupe or the Strawberry Slush?

Be sure to check back with the other videos this week as I share more with this Bundle.

Happy Crafting,

STAMPIN’ UP! OPULENT OASIS WITH BERRY BOTANICAL VELLUM

Jenny Hayward

The Opulent Oasis Bundle has been on my desk for some weeks now. I have been having lots of fun creating with this. So why put it away …

I shared one card in a recent post. This is another similar card I have made.

I like with this set that you can simply stamp the flower and diecut or there is the additional diecut flower/leaves that you can add. I will share more with that one in later posts.

For this card I went for the Hydrangea Hue and Lemon Lime Twist colour again. Because why not! I do like those colours. I added in the Peaceful Pine leaves also.

I used the Berry Botanical Vellum Specialty Paper. This is the May Product of the Month. I have been creating a lot with this paper over the past month working for the Demonstrator Council. I will show you more projects later with this

The Product of the Month is available with your qualifying purchases. In Australia when your order is over $125 you can purchase the product for an additional $9. Check your market for your amount.

If you need your own supplies and you are in Australia I would love to help you get them. You can order through my Online store -> HERE OR Contact me directly.

One of my favourites. I have already showed you a card in the last post. But it is the Opulent Oasis. I love that you can create the extra dimension to some of the elements, the flowers in this one, using the Impressions Plate.

You can see this Online -> HERE. I will share more with this one later.

NEW IN COLORS

You have probably met the new 2026-2028 In Colors by now. We have Barely Blush, Crisp Canteloupe, Golden Glow, Peaceful Pine, Hydrangea Hue.

What’s your favourite? I think you know mine… Hydrangea Hue.

And there is the new design of ink pad. These are just released in the new In Colors for now and other colours will be released next year. They are much easier to open and to lift the lid off. TIP: If you lift the lid sideways it is easier. They are also magnetized so you can keep the lid under the inkpad when you are using it if you like. They stack well together too.

Speaking of Ink Pads, I have to mention this now. You can receive the set of 5 In Color Ink Pads as a bonus for this month when you join Stampin’ Up!

In Australia it is $169 and receive $235 of Products PLUS the Set of Ink Pads. (They retail at $112.50). This is a great added bonus.

If you don’t want the Ink Pads you can choose an additional $65 of products instead on top of the $235 of products you already received. And all at your own choice.
