JOYFUL NATIVITY IN CHERRY COBBLER!

December 9, 2016December 9, 2016 Jenny Hayward

I made this card a couple of months ago and can’t believe I haven’t shown you. With all the excitement of the Holiday Catalogue it is easy to forget the great Christmas sets we have in the Annual Catalogue. This card uses the set ‘Joyful Nativity’ which is just lovely.

The card base is Cherry Cobbler. I used retired white Paper Doilies on this one as I was waiting on the new ones to arrive at the time. The sentiment is cut with the Project Life Framelits.

I thought the small images were just the size for smaller squares. I considered layering them on to some Gold Foil scallop mats but I went for White card in the end. I am sure Gold would look very classy! These squares were cut with the Layering Squares Framelits but wouldn’t they look nice with the Stitched Shapes Framelits?

Here is the set if you have missed it. It is on p 35 of the Annual Catalogue and is $30AUS (Photopolymer).

Christmas is getting way too close don’t you think?? But hey! I still have 2 weeks to shop and wrap and get Christmas cards written and mailed out and put up the tree… All good! 🙂 In all the frantic busyness let’s not lose sight of the true meaning of Christmas celebrating the birth of this baby that would change the world.

Thanks for stopping by,

MAKING LOOPY THREADS ON CARDS!

December 5, 2016December 5, 2016 Jenny Hayward

Last month I gave away these cute Pop Up Scrap Bins for everyone who ordered from me. I made up some cute cards as Thank You’s. The card was inspired by the Pop Up Bin itself.

Here is the bin again just for you to see.

The cards were small notecards measuring 10cm x 10cm (4″ x 4″). The black card mat was embossed with the Lucky Stars Embossing Folder. A Gold Foil circle was cut with the Layering Circles Framelits and then stamped in Black Stazon with the sentiment from ‘Tin of Cards’. I looped around Gold Thread behind the circle before adhering it to the card with Dimensionals.

People have asked me several times how to make those loopy threads on the cards so when I was making this I made a video to show you. See that below.

Just a note too, the last blog post on ‘behind the scenes in my classroom’ didn’t show the video if you received it by email so head to the last blog post for that one too).

BEHIND THE SCENES IN THE CLASSROOM!

December 3, 2016 Jenny Hayward

It was my last class for the year today. That is a bit sad but it gets to a crazy time of year with end of school activities and preparations for Christmas.

Before the class today I took a video of what is happening in my classroom and shared it on my Facebook Business page. I thought I would share it with you.

Thanks for joining this stamping journey with me and for your visits to my blog.

I am excited to continue to share stamping with you all in 2017.

LAST DAY FOR STITCHED SHAPES AND 25% OFF!

November 30, 2016November 30, 2016 Jenny Hayward

Can you believe it is the end of November?? Going way too fast!

I received my Stitched Shapes Framelits a couple of weeks ago and had some time to create with them. One of the cards I made was a special card to say HI to some new customers who I have met recently. I thought I would show you.

The base card is Watermelon Wonder. It is a bit hard to tell in the photo. It’s been a while since I have used the set Kinda Eclectic. You can’t tell on this but I added a little Wink of Stella sparkle on the butterfly. I also dusted off the Hello You Thinlits. The white card mat was embossed with the Brick Wall Embossing Folder.

Today is the last day that you can order the Stitched Shapes Framelits before they return in the 2017 Catalogue. PLUS select stamps at 25% off will end today. Have you checked these yet??

Here are the 25% off sets. If you want to see these closer then you can check the post HERE.

ONSTAGE LIVE BRISBANE REVIEW!

November 14, 2016November 14, 2016 Jenny Hayward

It has been over a week now since I have returned from Brisbane for Onstage Live. I haven’t stopped since getting back. I now have had a few minutes to look at the photos I took and thought I would share a few of the fun moments.

It was very exciting to be a part of. Brisbane held the Live event running over 3 days of fun presentations, seeing gorgeous new products and great business sessions. Some of the presentations were telecast to centres around the world where the Onstage Local events were being held for one day.

Brisbane is a beautiful city – with even a beach right in the middle of the city!!

The event opened with these amazing guys. Swagamama is a local hip-hop break-dance group. Their performance was incredible with their choreography and acrobatics. You didn’t know where to look next.

Even the President Rich Jutkins is not afraid to stamp. He did a good job too. 🙂

Shelli of course demonstrated some gorgeous projects.

I am not going to share too many of the new products at the moment but I will share just one project Shelli made. Isn’t it gorgeous with the new Dragonfly Thinlits. Ooh! look is that Watercolour pencils?? 😉

There were so many fantastic presentations showing new products coming up in the Occasions Catalogue and for Sale-A-Bration. So many great new techniques too that I just have to try. I might show you some of the projects at a later date though so I don’t give too much away at the moment. 😉

At the end of the last day things were going a little downhill – fast!! I won’t say too much about this but it was very hard for Sara and Shelli to keep it together. It is a bit blurry but just shows the mayhem! Sweet innocent shelli 😉

We already had Rich showing how he could stamp and he mentioned then it would be so much worse if he was on stage with Sara and Shelli. So …… They got him up right at the end for him to finish the project. Pressure was on!

Here is my name badge with ribbons. It is only a small little collection from others but I was pleased with my achievements for this past year.

With some of my stamping buddies, Leonie (left) here and Sarah (right) one of my downline at the great sign.

It was so good to see Shannon West again from the US Home Office. She is so gorgeous.

Onstage is such a fun, inspirational event. I am looking forward to Onstage Local in Sydney in April.

Thanks for looking. It was just a little insight in to the fun.
