CHRISTMAS IN JULY BLOG HOP!

Jenny Hayward

Today I am hopping along for Christmas in July with a great group of crafters.  There is some amazing talent in this group and I am honoured to be joining in.

For the Blog Hop we are featuring products from the new Holiday Catalogue beginning on August 4th.  I am excited to start creating with these products.  I know we may not feel too much like Christmas yet but once you start creating with these fantastic products you will quickly get in the mood.

For the Blog Hop today I am using the Dove Of Hope Bundle which has the gorgeous stamp set and dies.  I made 2 projects to share with you today.

The first card is a more simple design.  The dove is diecut with Whisper White card and it really shows off the crispness of the dove as well as the little embossed details.  Don’t you love the detail in the wings??

To complete the card I used a piece of the ‘Tis the Season Designer Series Paper adhered on to a Real Red card mat.  The leaves were stamped over the Garden Green card base in Garden Green ink.  For the sentiment it was stamped in black on to white card and then punched with the Timeless Label Punch. 

The next card is a stepped up version.

The red card mat was diecut with one of the Ornate Layers Dies with piece of the ‘Tis the Season Designer Series Paper added.

On this dove I diecut it with some of the Plush Poinsettia Specialty Paper.  This paper is gorgeous and has flocked designs on vellum There are 3 different designs in the pack.  I went for this “flourish” style.  I wasn’t sure how it would work.  I did find that some of the flocked pattern was flattened but you still get the pattern on the dove.

The sentiment this time was heat embossed in gold on to white card and punched with the Timeless Label Punch.  To add a little extra shine I cut a small strip of Gold Foil and flagged the end to go under the sentiment.

Now you are off to continue your Hop.  I hope the links work for you. 🙂

CHRISTMAS CARD LOVE!

Jenny Hayward

We received lots of lovely cards this Christmas.  It was always nice opening the envelopes.  There were store bought cards and handmade cards.  All so nice that we were thought of.  Since it’s all about hand-made here I thought I would show you the beautiful hand-made cards we received.  Maybe they will inspire you.

These are with some non Stampin’ Up! products.  Aren’t they gorgeous?

These ones below are predominantly with Stampin’ Up! products. Such a beautiful selection.

All sent with love.  I am so blessed. 🙂

Thank You to those of you who sent me cards.  All appreciated.

I think that’s a wrap for Christmas 2019.  January brings us the new 2020 Mini Catalogue and Sale-A-Bration which we all love.  Stay tuned for projects with these.

Still time to request your free catalogues too.  Head -> HERE to fill out the short request form.  Australian residents only. 

Thanks for following me along this year.  I have loved sharing my projects with you and can’t wait to share more in 2020.

Happy creating,

CHRISTMASTIME IS HERE SWAPS!

Jenny Hayward

Christmas is fast approaching.  I have just time to show you these 2 cards I received for swaps recently.  These are using the Christmastime is Here suite. 

This first card was created by Peta one of my team members.  I received this as a swap for Onstage in early November but hadn’t shared it with you yet.  The copper makes it very classy.  She used the Stitched Rectangles Dies to create the card mats for the gorgeous array of flowers.

This next one is just a mini card.  It is about 7.5cm x 5cm (3″ x 2″) – roughly anyway.   The flowers are cut from the gorgeous Christmastime is Here specialty Designer Series Paper.  This one was a swap from my upline Vanessa. She added a little stamping too.

This Christmastime is Here Suite of products are still available in my store -> HERE.  Just because Christmas is over don’t think you can’t use them.  They are beautiful, elegant products for a birthday or wedding.

If ordering online please use the Host Code: REKK2FW4

Wishing you all a wonderful Christmas time however you spend it.  I hope it is filled with love and special people around you.  For some I know Christmas can be a difficult time.  Know that you are loved and I pray that God’s grace and strength will fill you at this time.

Much love to you.

TEAM CHRISTMAS SWAPS!

Jenny Hayward

It was the last team meeting for the year on Wednesday.  I wanted to share the swaps I received.  I have to say I didn’t get to make any swaps for this time but people were very generous in giving me one.

Firstly, this tag set is from Bonnie.  She made a cute little holder for the 6 tags.  There were lots of different stamp sets used to create these tags.

Christmas treats and a tag.  I liked the way Barbara made the tag using the Christmas Gleaming stamp set.  They are all lovely.  I am sorry I don’t have any directions for the little chocolate box.  The window is cut using the Stitched Rectangles  dies though.  It is really sweet.

Then an origami ornament from Vanessa.  I have seen these a few times recently.  I have wanted to make one but as yet haven’t had a chance.

You can see how to make them in this Youtube link -> HERE.

It might be too late for you with these for this Christmas but be sure to PIN them or save the ones you like ready for your creating next year.

Thanks for visiting me,

Have a great weekend,

Jenny

SUNDAY BUNDLES – SHINE BRIGHT!

Jenny Hayward

Our Sunday Suites have finished for the short term.  We have gone through nearly all of the suites in this current Holiday Catalogue.  I thought now we would look at some Bundles that have been a little neglected this Christmas

Today we are looking at the Shine Bright Bundle.  I really haven’t seen a lot around with these stamps and dies but they are so pretty.

The Bundle includes the Shine Bright stamp set.  This is a photopolymer set and is great for colouring but I think they would look really great heat embossed.  The sentiments are lovely don’t you think??

Check this pretty sample from Stampin’ Up!.  I really like how it is layered with the Wrapped in Plaid paper.

It also includes the Stitched Brightly Dies.  They are 3 dies but some of them cut several of the images on one die like the star and the tree making it very quick to cut out several and when you are layering them on a card they are even.  Another feature – is they are stitched!! They create a really cool effect that you can see below.

So I think this little bundle is overlooked.  I certainly love those dies.

See the Shine Bright Bundle in store -> HERE. 

I hope your Christmas creating is going well?

Happy Stamping,

Jenny

SNOW GLOBE SEAHORSE!

Jenny Hayward

You have probably seen the Still Scenes stamps and the Snowglobe Scenes dies in the Holiday Catalogue along with the Snowglobe Shaker Domes.  These make fun Christmas cards and we had a great time using them in a class recently.  You can use these products not just at Christmas time.  I was looking around on Pinterest and found some fun ideas using other occasions stamps.

For this one I used the Seaside Notions stamp set to make a fun snowglobe.

To make this I diecut the circular shape with the die in the set on the white card then embossed it with the Swirls and Curls Embossing Folder.  I used a small piece of white card and traced the circular shape on to the white card in pencil so I could see the area to stamp on to.  Then adhere one of the Shaker domes in to the embossed white card from behind.

The images were stamped on the scrap white card in Memento and coloured with the Stampin’ Blends.

To assemble the card the stamped white piece was adhered on to the Seaside Spray Card mat.  Then carefully add a little glitter. I used the Ice Stampin’ Glitter and also some Snowflake Sequins. Remove the backing off the Snowglobe Shaker Dome and carefully position it on to the Seaside Spray card mat.  Then you can adhere the whole piece on to the White card mat.

To finish stamp the base in Smoky Slate and cut that with the die and raise that up off the card with Dimensionals.  Stamp the sentiment from the set on to scrap white card and cut this with the Ornate Frames Dies and also cut one in the Silver Glimmer Paper.  Cut the silver one in half and adhere that behind the white one to off-set it . Adhere that on to the card and add a bow from the Seaside Spray Metallic Ribbon. 

The Still Scenes Bundle will be carried over But as individual stamps and dies.  If you buy them now as a bundle you will save 10%.  See them -> HERE in my store. 

Thanks for visiting me today,

Happy Stamping,

Jenny

STAMPING AROUND THE WORLD DECEMBER BLOG HOP!

Jenny Hayward

We have another Blog Hop for you today with the Stamping Around The World Tutorial group.  As I used the Itty Bitty Christmas in my project for the Tutorial this month I am sharing another project for the Blog Hop.

You might have come from Alicia’s Blog HERE or starting from my corner of the world.  Enjoy this little hop around the world.  Here is my project for this month.

I wanted to create a different card using the Christmas Layers dies and not just diecutting them and adding them to the card.  So I diecut one of the dies from scrap paper and used that as a mask on the white card and then sponged through with the Seaside Spray ink and the sponge dauber.  It creates a fun effect.

I had to use those Playful Penguins of course.  I am sad they will be retiring.  If you haven’t got these cute guys you better get on it.  They are only available while supplies last.  And really they aren’t just for Christmas. 🙂

The penguin is stamped in Basic Gray and the scarf in Seaside Spray ink.  They were both hand cut with scissors.  I like to leave a little white edge around the shape as it is a little softer visually.

The sentiment is from the Itty Bitty Christmas set.  How sparkly is the Seaside Spray ribbon?? It is a little hard to tell in the photo.   A smaller snowflake star was cut from the Sparkle Glimmer Paper.

Just a note too:

The Itty Bitty Christmas stamps and the Christmas Layers dies will be carrying over but not as a Bundle so buying them now will save you 10%.  Check them out in my store along with the cute Playful Penguins stamp set -> HERE.

Now continue on the Blog Hop.  Just click on the little blue frog below.

Happy Hopping,

Jenny

All orders will receive the Tutorial Bundle of 12 projects from me as a little Thank You.
