This card brought back fun memories. When I was young I spent a lot of time on the beach creating sandmen. Big mounds of sand and I collected seaweed for their hair and decorated them with shells and stuck sticks for arms. So much fun.
A few weeks ago for our “Summery” Christmas class we created this card with the Snowman Magic Bundle. It was such fun to create it.
The background is using the Oceanfront Stamp Set. The paper is the Celebrate Everything Designer Series Paper.
Isn’t it fun?? 🙂
I’m thinking though with the way the weather has been here we will be needing to make snowmen at Christmas time. Crazy weather!

On Saturday I was at the local Doll, Bear and Craft Show. While there was a lot of doll and bear lovers I spoke to a number of crafty people. It’s always great chatting with others.
I had a card for everyone to make if they wished to join me. I thought I would share the card with you. This one is using the Cottage Wreath Stamps and Dies.
I love with the wreath stamp you get those colour variations. There was a version with Garden Green colour too. On that one we stamped the leaf on the background of the card. Also some flipped the paper over and had the lovely red print for the Garden Green base card. That looked really great too.
This Cottage Wreath Stamp Set is suitable for different occasions whether it’s Christmas, Halloween, Thanks. The Country Wreaths Dies have varying wreath dies which look great layered together.
Would you like this bundle in your collection?

Today’s card I’m sharing with you is one from our class 2 weeks ago. All the cards were “tree” cards.
This one was using the Trees For Sale Stamp set. While there were some cards using the dies that were available at the time this one shows how nice it can be with just the stamped images.
The sentiment piece is cut with the Picture This Dies. I think we forget to use the diecut pieces on their own.
The trees were stamped in Garden Green with Pear Pizzazz and Pool Party with Shaded Spruce.
Here’s a tip: scribble small lines under the trees for “shadow” lines. That helps ground the trees.
The Trees For Sale stamp set is available in this current Mini Catalogue.
Need this in your stash and you are in Australia? I would love to serve you. You can order through my store -> HERE. (see the stamp set there). Please use the Host Code: 3WVA7CQE Or contact me directly.
Have a great day,
Jenny
This week we have started our Christmas cards in classes. I wanted to share this one with you.
With the Lights Aglow Specialty paper and Trimming the Tree stamp set it makes for a gorgeous Christmas Card. It has just that bit of Gold to make it elegant don’t you think?
The diecut for the sentiment actually comes from the Tree Trimmings Dies. These are available for only this month as a bonus with the Perfect Partners Promotion. They have some great sentiment dies and tree dies and little ornaments. I will share more with the stamps and dies shortly.
You can see them below.
Check them more out in my store though -> HERE.
The Trimming the Tree stamp set is one from the Annual Catalogue. It’s a great one I think.
If you want to grab the Trimming the Tree set and also grab the Tree Trimming Dies now while you can you can jump on over to my store just above. (Grab them as a bundle to save 10%).

I have been playing a lot with the Adventurous Journey stamp set lately. It’s such a great one for the boys cards. It was fun to use this in class last week too.
I wanted to try something a little different. I have noticed Book Binding Fold cards around and thought that would work well.
Here is the card.
The outside.
The kayaker was coloured with the Stampin’ Blends. For the sentiment I stamped the words on the Balmy Blue card and Crushed Curry Card. Then diecut them with the long sentiment die in the Sending Dies. It was easy to just trim them down.
I find that a lot easier than trying to squeeze a sentiment on a thin strip of card.
The paper is from the Celebrate Everything Designer Series Paper pack which is a Host Reward in the Mini Catalogue. It’s great paper by the way. It has such a range of colours and prints. Why not take a closer look at it.
This is the inside.
I think I will just have to put together a video soon for it. So stay tuned on that.

I love making Easel Cards. I love this idea too. This is a Split Easel Card. It’s very easy.
I have used the Splendid Day Suite. It’s so pretty.
We made this card in a class recently. I don’t often share my class cards here, But I thought I would share this one with you.
This is the front view of the Split Easel.
The side view. You can see how it stands up.
Inside. You can see how the sides are split and adhered down. Decorate the card as you like.
When we made the card in class I made the section in the middle inside a little smaller. I thought it looked better than this original one and it gave more room to write.
I will share the HOW-TO soon so stay tuned for that.
Happy Stamping,
Jenny
