DON’T FEEL YOU HAVE TO COLOUR THE ACCENTED BLOOMS FLOWERS!

Jenny Hayward

I have another Accented Blooms card for you.  For this card once again I haven’t coloured it.  I like that sometimes. 😉

This card was inspired by a card by Dawn Griffith -> HERE.  I liked the simpleness of the stamped flower with the sentiment.  I stamped the flowers in Rich Razzleberry and cut them with the Layering Ovals Framelits as well as a Rich Razzleberry scallop oval. For my card I went with a simple mat of dotty Designer Series Paper from the Share What You Love Paper.  The paper was matted on to Rich Razzleberry card and then adhered on to a Mint Macaron Card base.  Finishing it off with a small Mint Macaron bow from Nature’s Twine and an Adhesive Rhinestone.  It’s nice you can have a good effect without colouring it.

Thanks for visiting me.

Have a great day wherever you are.

Jenny

WEDNESDAY’S WOW! #38 – MAKE YOUR IMAGES POP!!

Jenny Hayward

A quick one for Wednesday’s WOW! #38 today. I wanted to share with you a way to make those images ‘POP’ after you colour them.

The other day I was colouring the butterfly from the Beautiful Day set with the Stampin’ Blends.  I had an idea to add a few dots to it with my White Gel Pen.  I thought it added a little something to the image and thought you might like to see it.

It is a little rough but the idea is something to work with.  What do you think?  Maybe you could try that on a project you are doing?

Anyway, what did I do with this butterfly when I was done?  I added it to a jar that I collected my Lucky Door Prize forms at the show.

Thanks for looking

ACCENTED BLOOMS IN BASIC GRAY!

Jenny Hayward

I have been sharing cards with you with the Accented Blooms set.  I had a Craft Show over the weekend and I focused on this set for the Make and Take there. When I was thinking of using this set for the show it needed to be a simple card that didn’t require colouring with it as there was no time for that in the small minute that you have with people.  I came across a card by Amanda Bates with some simple stamping in Basic Gray and a POP of the Lemon Lime Twist.  So I CASED her card for it.  (Thanks Amanda 🙂 )  You can see her card -> HERE.

This is the card that everyone made.  I have to say that Kids and adults loved making this card.

It’s just a mini card 10cm x 10cm. (4″x4″).  Stamping in Basic Gray gives a little more softness to it than using a heavy black.  I liked the  Lemon Lime Twist POP.  Everyone added a Rhinestone to their card for a little bling rather than the Glitter Gems that I have added on this one.

I have another card with this set that I will share with you shortly that doesn’t require colouring.  Check in soon for that.

ACCENTED BLOOMS WITH STAMPIN’ BLENDS!

Jenny Hayward

I have been creating with the Accented Blooms set recently.  I have a few to share with you over the next few posts.

Let me show you the first one.

The image was stamped in Memento Black Ink onto Thick Whisper White card.  Both a must when you are colouring with the Stampin’ Blends.  I used a number of the Stampin’ Blends to colour the image.  I still have much to learn with colouring but I was happy with this attempt.  The sentiment was stamped on Pumpkin Pie card and punched out with the Tailored Tag Punch.  I sponged a little Pumpkin Pie ink around the edge. 

To assemble the card I embossed a piece of Rich Razzleberry card with the Layered Leaves Embossing Folder. The strip of paper is from the Share What You Love Specialty Designer Series Paper pack and I added some of the Rich Razzleberry Velvet Ribbon around the pieces before adhering them to the Thick Whisper White Card.  The stamped piece was raised up off the card with Dimensionals. Just to finish add an Artisan Pearl embellishment.

Tomorrow I have another card for you similar to this so be sure to stop by.

HAPPY 10 YEARS WITH STAMPIN’ UP!

Jenny Hayward

Tomorrow (Tuesday), I celebrate 10 years with Stampin’ Up!.  It’s pretty crazy really!  It’s been a wild ride I have to say with lots of creating, travelling to fun events and “meeting” many amazing people here and from all over the world.  I have many customers who have been with me nearly the whole time and some blog readers here too.  I have to say a HUGE THANK YOU for sticking with me. ❤

It still amazes me what you can do with ink and paper and I am continually learning new techniques and ideas.  10 years ago I threw myself into this journey having no idea what I was doing – and still don’t half the time, but I keep going and I hope that I inspire you along the way. Stampin’ Up! has given me a greater confidence in myself to try new things and to believe in myself that I can create. 🙂

I appreciate each and every one of you whether you have been with me for 10 years or 10 days.  Thank you for sharing this ride with me.  I love sharing my creations and ideas with you. Creating is such an important part of our lives.  So keep creating and I hope you continue on this ride with me.  To many more years of creating! 🙂

So to celebrate my 10th Stampin’ Up! Birthday, I am giving you the gifts.

GIRAFFE PARADE WITH ANIMAL OUTING!

Jenny Hayward

I made this card a few months ago and I forgot to show you.  This was the first card I made with this Animal Outing set way back then.  I have to say I wasn’t overly wrapped in the card.  Maybe that’s why I filed it away in the “forget about it” box. 🙂  Anyway, maybe you like it – and not all our cards can be super-wonderful.  Not that I think many of my cards are super-wonderful. 😉

So here we are.  I call it my Giraffe parade.

I stamped 3 of the giraffes from Animal Outing across a piece of white card and coloured them with the Stampin’ Blends.  I outlined the giraffes with the grey Blend. It helps them stand out. After that I wasn’t sure what to do with it.  I embossed a piece of Silver Foil Sheet with the Hexagons Embossing Folder.  To assemble it I adhered a strip of the Pumpkin Pie card under the foil and matted the Giraffes on some Pumpkin Pie card.   The sentiment was stamped on a Thick Whisper card base and then Rhinestones were added to finish. 

They look happy anyway don’t they. 🙂

Thanks for looking,

Jenny

PILLOW BOX CARD HOLDER!

Jenny Hayward

I just received the Kraft Pillow Boxes recently. These are lovely little boxes for little treats. I will do that with them soon but I had different ideas for this little project.

I made a little pocket with a matching note card and envelope using the Narrow Note Cards and Envelopes.

This is a great size to give a little note to someone as a pick-me-up or a Thanks.  Add a chocolate treat or even a Gift Card.

To make these little pockets, simply cut the top off the Pillow Box just under the curved score line.  Then assemble the Pillow Box.  Decorate it as you like after it is assembled.

To decorate mine, I added a wide strip of the Share What You Love Specialty Designer Series Paper and then a narrower strip over the top.  I wrapped around some Rich Razzleberry Velvet Ribbon and adhered a bow with a Glue Dot.  The sentiment from the Love What You Do stamp set was stamped in Rich Razzleberry and then I cut around the ‘friend’ word with scissors.  That was raised up with Dimensionals.

The Narrow Note Card was stamped with the flowers in Memento Black and then “filled” with one of the small “dot” type stamps in Rich Razzleberry.  I added some Old Olive leaves.  Of course, finished off with a Linen Thread bow and a Pearl from the Adhesive Artisan Pearls. The envelope was stamped with a matching flower.

These are so quick to make.  I think I need to make some more so I can have some on hand to give out.  How will you decorate yours?

Thanks for stopping by.

Catch you again soon,

Jenny
