You would have noticed the Merriest Moments Bundle I am sure. It is a gorgeous bundle with the Merriest Moments Stamp Set, Dies and the Merriest Frames Hybrid Embossing Folder.

Today’s video brings you 5 Ways with the Merriest Moments Bundle. Check it out and be sure to catch them all. I will share some tips in using it too.

WEDNESDAY’S WOW! #128 – Christmas Whimsy Kit. It’s even better than it looks!
Have you noticed the new Christmas Whimsy card kit just released? I have to be honest I saw it but passed it by BUT… I just checked the video and it is WAY better than it looks in print AND it sparkles! Check the video to see what I mean.
This kit ($33 AUD) contains all you need to create 8 cards. (4 each of 2 designs).
What I discovered about this kit?
The dimension to the images. I thought they were all one layer cards.
The added stamping
Sparkly elements.
This are so cool! These 8 cards would not take long at all to assemble.
Here are the contents in the kits AND the Christmas Whimsy Stamp set.
The sentiments in this stamp set are so lovely with such a nice font. You could use this stamp set over and over on other cards once these cards are finished.
I think this is a great set to get those quick Christmas cards together.

Have a great Wednesday,
Jenny

Having a play with the Delicate Dahlias Stamp Set recently I created these 2 cards. One in Polished Pink, the other in Pale Papaya. It might be some simple stamping but a little white embossed sentiment on black card gives it a little POP.
The leaves stamped on the white was stamped with Basic Gray.
What is your pick – Polished Pink or Pale Papaya??
Don’t miss this Delicate Dahlias Stamp Set. Just over 2 weeks to go to grab it.
I am loving this stamp set. It’s a 2 Step style you can use the “solid” stamp to add colour or you can just stamp the outline as it is or colour with the Stampin’ Blends or the Watercolor Pencils.
The Delicate Dahlias Stamp Set is available as a Free Choice for Sale-A-Bration with orders over $180.

I recently came across a card idea in a magazine I was reading. I thought it looked cool. I wanted to replicate it with our inks and stamps. So I did! I put together a video for our Friday Flicks for you to see how to create it yourself.
These are the cards. I call it the Double Layer Duo Technique. It’s an interesting twist on the Double Layer Stamping Technique if you have tried that before.
I have used the gorgeous Delicate Dahlias stamp set. This works so well.
For this technique you will want a stamp set with a number of images. I can’t wait to try this with some other stamps.
Here is the video.
The Delicate Dahlias stamp set is available as a free choice for Sale-A-Bration with your qualifying orders over $180 AUD. There are only a few weeks left to grab this.
If you need to place an order and you are in Australia I would love to help you.

This might seem an unusual one for a Wednesday’s WOW! But I think it fits nicely. We make cards so why not send them out.
Wednesday’s WOW! #128 – Send Card Love. Not only does it give us the warm, fuzzy feeling but it really makes others day. We need to send more cards.
I can vouch for this. I have received some gorgeous Card Love recently. I wanted to share them with you but also to make a point to send those cards out. It’s nice to know others are thinking of us.
So can I challenge you on this Wednesday. Grab a card or two you have in your stash. I know you have them. If not then make 2 of a card. Then send them out. I know that it will bring a smile to someone’s day. We need to do more of this.
Thank You to so many of my friends who have sent me some “love in a card” recently. It made my day. 🙂
On the weekend I had a Zoom Craft and Chatwith some stamping friends. It was so nice to connect and chat and craft together. (You could join next time too) 🙂
I did some colouring during it. I’m not a big fan of colouring I will say. I find it hard to get the right shading. I coloured some images with the Stampin’ Blends and some with Watercolor Pencils.
The image from Feels Like Home stamp set was one I coloured. I do like colouring with Watercolor Pencils better.
I put the card together and used the paper from the Tidings of Christmas Designer Series Paper. It is a Christmas one but the colouring worked well with the image.
For the sentiment I masked some words with tape while inking it and then removed the tape to stamp just the “thank you”.
The Feels Like Home stamp set is one of thefree choices for Sale-A-Bration with your orders over $90 AUD. It’s a sweet image. There are other free choices too with your orders. You can check them out ->HERE.
In Australia? You can order in my store (use the link just above) and don’t forget to add your Sale-A-Bration choice and if you add the Host Code: GS9S4AY9 too.

It’sWednesday WOW! #127 andBeautifully Penned Paper Week. What a double bonus!
What about making some cute little Paper notes with pretty papers. I used the Beautifully Penned Designer Series Paper for these. They are so easy – and sweet!
These are little Customer Thank You notes for those of you who ordered this month. Are you getting one?
HOW TO CREATE YOUR OWN
Cut the paper to 15cm x 10cm. Score at 7.5cm. (6″ x 4″ score at 3″). It’s that easy!
I added a white card insert inside to write on. The small flower from the Delicate Dahlias stamp set (another Sale-A-Bration choice) was stamped inside to match the sentiment tag I added on the outside.
The sentiment is from the Many Messages stamp set and diecut with a die from the Tasteful Labels Dies.
This Beautifully Penned Designer Series Paper is a free choice for Sale-A-Bration with orders over $90.

We have so many lovely papers forSale-A-Bration this round. The Beautifully Penned Designer Series Paper is just one. I thought we should take a look at this one today.
This paper has 12 sheets of patterned paper: 4 each of 3 double-sided designs in 12″ x 12″ size. It comes in varying black and white patterns. You will notice that many of the patterns are similar to the Hand-Penned DSP in the Annual Catalogue.
You can choose to colour the papers or leave them as they are. I have been using them a lot recently. Some I have coloured and some I have left as they are. I have too many cards to just share in one post so I think this will be a Beautifully Penned Week!Watch out for this in the coming week.
Just to get your started I will share a few projects.
These cute pillow boxes (made by Stampin’ Up! artists) are created with the Pretty Pillow Box Dies.
For this card (also created by Stampin’ Up! artists) several patterns of the paper was used. The paper was diecut with the floral background and the white card piece was matted on the stripy pattern. Some little flowers were fussy cut out and added.
Here is a card I created recently with the papers. Don’t wasted even the little strips. They will all co-ordinate together on one card.
I love black with POPS of pink. This is Polished Pink. You could use any colour though to make it POP. What colour would you use??
The stamp set is from the Color and Contour stamp set.
This Beautifully Penned Designer Series Paper is a free choice for Sale-A-Bration with orders over $90.
