RAZZLEBERRY FLOWERING FOILS!

Jenny Hayward

Another Flowering Foils card for you today.  This time I have coloured one of the flowers on the flower print paper of the Flowering Foils Specialty Designer Series Paper. 

I used the Rich Razzleberry and the Granny Apple Green Stampin’ Blends. I love how you get the resist effect with the embossing on the flowers.  The paper is so easy to colour.

To finish the card I used a piece of the Lily Impressions Designer Series Paper adhered on to a white card mat and then on to the Rich Razzleberry card base.

The sentiment is from the So Sentimental stamp set and then cut with the Stitched So Sweetly dies.  On the Rich Razzleberry diecut piece I embossed that with the Layered Leaves 3D Embossing Folder to add some texture.

On the back of the sentiment pieces loop some Silver Thread on to the back and to finish a Rhinestone was coloured with the Rich Razzleberry Dark Stampin’ Blends to co-ordinate.

Both the Lily Impressions paper and the Flowering Foils Designer Series Paper are available as Sale-A-Bration choices but there is only 2 weeks left.  Grab either of these (or any of the other choices) when you shop in my store now -> HERE. 

Have a wonderful weekend,

STAMPING AROUND THE WORLD MARCH BLOG HOP – THOUGHTFUL BLOOMS!

Jenny Hayward

Time for another Blog Hop with the Stamping Around The World Tutorial Group.  We put together Tutorial Bundles to send out to those who order each month with any of us and then bring you more inspiration with the Monthly Blog Hops.

This month for my tutorial I used the Thoughtful Blooms stamp set so I am using that in my project for you today for the Blog Hop.

This is a sweet set available as one of your free choices for Sale-A-Bration.  I chose to keep the cards simple for you with a little stamping and masking.

For the card above I first masked off a strip down near the bottom of the card to allow for space the sentiment.  The sentiment is from the Happy Birthday To You Stamp set. Of course that step is optional though.

Then I stamped the Flirty Flamingo flowers over the card.  I stamped some under the strip just to have some over the edge of the masked area.

Then finished with stamping flowers in Gorgeous Grape and the leaves in Granny Apple Green and Pear Pizzazz.

Before adhering this piece to the Flirty Flamingo card mat and the Thick Whisper White card base I ran it through with the Subtles Embossing Folder to give it some texture.

For the second Card I masked off the area this time in the right hand bottom corner after stamping the Thank You from the Thoughtful Blooms Stamp set.

Using the same colours I stamped the flowers and leaves.

The white card wasn’t embossed on this one but you could do that.  It was adhered to Gorgeous Grape card mat and then to a Whisper White card base.

Another flower in Flirty Flamingo was stamped on scrap white card and punched out with the Small Bloom Punch also available for Sale-A-Bration.

They are simple cards but I hope they inspire you in some way.

Now head off on the rest of the Blog Hop by following along by clicking on the blue frog below.

Have a great day,

FLOWERING FOILS FLOWERS!

Jenny Hayward

I have been sharing some projects with the Flowering Foils Specialty Designer Series Paper.  Here is another one for you.  This one uses 2 of the prints in the pack.

The flowers were coloured with the Stampin’ Blends. The flowers on the paper are embossed in Rose Gold and in Silver so the ink resists the outline.   I fussy cut the flowers out to add them to the card.  I used the lined print for the mat on the card.

The sentiment is from the Positive Thoughts stamp set.  It is heat embossed in white Embossing Powder. The black card looks striking against the paper.

Notice the ends of the black strip? To create these I punched them with the Tailored Tag Punch.  Feed the end of the strip in to the punch from the back where the window is.  This way you can see that it is straight before you punch it out.  I found that the angles were quite long so I trimmed them slightly.  You can leave them long if you like that.  I added some Adhesive Pearls to finish it.

Hope you like it.

The Flowering Foils Designer Series Paper is available as a Free Sale-A-Bration choice with your order over $90.  Be sure the grab some soon before it goes. You can order in my store now.  Head to the link shown just below.

Have a great week ahead.

SPONGING THE FLOWERING FOILS PAPER WITH A VIDEO!

Jenny Hayward

I have mentioned already the gorgeous Flowering Foils Specialty Designer Series Paper.  You have probably seen lots around with it too.  Today I have a card to share with you using this paper and a video to show how you can very easily add the colour to the paper with the sponge rollers.

This card is inspired by a card in the 2nd release Sale-A-Bration brochure (p3)  I changed it up a little.

Here is the card.

Check the video below.

I used the Stitched So Sweetly Dies on the card and the sentiment is from So Sentimental. The card in the brochure uses one of these sentiments too but I just wanted to keep it simple rather than cutting around the sentiment seen on that card.  It does give it a good effect when you do that.

The leaves are from the Birthday Dies.  These are available as Co-ordination products that go with the Happy Birthday To You stamp set also for Sale-A-Bration.

The Flowering Foils Specialty Designer Series Paper is only available for March during Sale-A-Bration (or while supplies last) so you want to grab them soon.  You receive them as your free choice with orders over $90.  Check out my store now -> HERE.

Have fun sponging and colouring this paper.

WEDNESDAY’S WOW! #97 – NATURE’S THOUGHTS DIES!

Jenny Hayward

Wednesday’s WOW! #97 – Today I thought we need to take a closer look at the Nature’s Thoughts Dies.  These are a hidden gem and I have had so many comment lately about where the dies are from when I have used them.  Perhaps you have missed them yourself.

These dies co-ordinate with the Positive Thoughts stamp set in the Mini Catalogue.  They have recently been released as part of the Co-ordination products.  

I have die-cut them out so you can see them closer.

What I love particularly is the “dotted” frame die and the little flourish strip.  All the dies are great though. What about the largest feather? It has embossed lines on it which is really cool.

This card below I shared recently uses both the frame and the flourish strip.

This is the Positive Thoughts stamp set that these dies co-ordinate with.   The words are lovely in this set too.  I think these are a “Must-have” in your collection.

 

You can find these dies in my store now -> HERE.  Don’t miss them. You need them for your collection.

If ordering online please use the Host Code: MJMPAFFR.  After your order I will email out to you your free Project Tutorial Bundle available for this month.  This includes 12 projects using different Stampin’ Up! products.

Be sure to check them out.

Have a great day,

FLOWERING FOILS FAVOURITE FOR SALE-A-BRATION 2ND RELEASE!

Jenny Hayward

Today is the 2nd release for Sale-A-Bration.  As if you didn’t have enough choices right!

You can see all the items in the catalogue -> HERE.

Of course there are some great choices.  I have to say though my favourite is the Flowering Foils Designer Series Paper.

We have had similar paper in past years.  These are just (if not more) as gorgeous.

There are 12 12″x 12″ white sheets with embossed designs in Rose Gold and Silver.  There are 4 designs and 3 of each sheet.

You can leave them plain or colour them with a sponge/dauber or with the Stampin’ Blends.

This is one of the cards I created with the paper coloured with the Stampin’ Blends.  I have used the Balmy Blue and coloured the background then used the Daffodil Delight for the flower centres.

The sentiment is from the Positive Thoughts stamp set.  Such lovely words.  I had the vellum diecut from the Flourishes Dies left over from another project and it worked well with this.

It’s hard to tell in the photo but I have used the ornate die strip from the Nature’s Thoughts Dies. You can see it better in the photo below.

These projects are created by Stampin’ Up! artists but it shows how pretty the paper is sponged.

So how do you get yourself some of this Flowering Foils paper??

It’s available free as part of Sale-A-Bration with orders over $90 AUD until the end of March.  

In Australia?  Head to my store now -> HERE and shop for your stamps, ink paper.  When your order totals over $90 you can select this as your free item.

BEAUTIFUL MOMENTS WEEK – DAY 5 – PAPER PIECED GIRLS!

Jenny Hayward

I have been sharing projects all this week featuring the Beautiful Moments stamp set.  Today I have 2 classes using this set.  I thought for Day 5 of the Showcase I would share with you one of the cards we will be making.

This card was inspired by Su Mohr.  I changed it a little.  I liked the idea that you don’t have to colour it with Blends or inks or other mediums but by using patterned paper you can add colour to the images.  This Technique is known as Paper Piecing.

I have used the Best Dressed Designer Series Paper.  To create this first stamp your image in Black Memento on to white card.  This card was cut with the Nature’s Thoughts Dies.  I love this dotted pattern around the edge.

After diecutting the piece then stamp your images on your chosen pieces of Designer Series Paper.  Cut around the outside of the lines on these images.  Then adhere these to the stamped image.  It’s a bit like playing with Paper dolls when we were younger.  Do you remember that? That was such fun.

For the rest of the card I stamped the palm tree in Old Olive ink on to Crumb Cake and then embossed the card with the Subtle Embossing Folder. This was adhered to a Thick Whisper White card base.

Before adhering the stamped white card I looped around some Linen Thread.  Then the piece was raised up off the card with Dimensionals.

For the sentiment it was stamped on Purple Posy card and then cut with a small Stitched Rectangles Die.  The left hand end was trimmed to fit on to the card but it makes a different look for the sentiment block too. The card was finished with a Pearl.

I hope you have liked the projects this week.  It has been fun creating with this sweet set.

I do hope you add it to your collection.  You can grab it in store now -> HERE.

Thanks for stopping by today and taking the time to visit my corner of blog land,

Happy Stamping,

Jenny

BEAUTIFUL MOMENTS WEEK – DAY 3 – TOP PANEL CARD!

Jenny Hayward

Moving along on our Beautiful Moments Showcase Week.  Day 3.  This card is a little different.  I don’t know what you might call it but I call it a Top Panel Card.  I will share the instructions below.

The base card is a little smaller than the standard size allowing you to have a panel overhanging the edge.

Of course, you could do the base any size but for this one, the base card measures 21cm x 10.5cm scored at 10.5cm.  (8 1/2″ x 4 1/4″ scored at 4 1/4″).  The paper mat is slightly smaller 4mm (1/8″).

The stamped piece is watercolor card cut with the larger die in the Stitched So Sweetly Dies.  The image was stamped in Black Stazon and coloured with the Watercolor Pencils and washed over lightly with the Aquapainter.  When the watercolor card was cut it left some scratches on the other side.  (maybe because my plates are scratched!).  I didn’t want it showing on the reverse so I adhered a piece of White card on the back.

The sentiment was also stamped on watercolour card to match the stamped piece.  The sentiment is from the Positive Thoughts stamp set.  It was stamped in Black Stazon so I could do a light colour with the Daffodil Delight pencil and lightly wash it.  The flourish piece behind the sentiment is from the Flourish Dies.

Check back tomorrow for Day 4 of our Showcase using this lovely set.

BEAUTIFUL MOMENTS WEEK – DAY 2 – FLAMINGO GIRLS!

Jenny Hayward

Day 2 of the Beautiful Moments Week as I showcase this gorgeous stamp set.

Yesterday I shared a card with the sweet girls in the stamp set.  So thought I would share another card with these girls.

This one was stamped in Saddle Brown Stazon on to watercolor paper.  Then it was coloured with the Watercolor Pencils then washed over with the Aquapainter.  I love the softness of it.

I stamped the birds in as an afterthought just before I assembled the card but I was annoyed that I used the Black.  I just grabbed that inkpad without thinking too much. I think it would have looked much better if I had used the Saddle Brown ink again.

I used a piece of Tropical Oasis Designer Series Paper.  I really wasn’t sure what I was going to do with this flamingo piece but the colouring worked really well with it.

Before adhering the stamped piece on to the card I looped around some of the Daffodil Delight Ruched Ribbon.

Have you seen the images in the Beautiful Moments stamp set?  I will be sharing more this week with it so stop by.
