UNDER MY UMBRELLA CARD ON A RAINY DAY!

March 20, 2021March 20, 2021 Jenny Hayward

The other day I decided to play just because. No creating for classes, blog posts, Youtube, Challenge cards, Thank You cards. I just decided to pull out a set to create. I very rarely do that. (Maybe I should do it more too).

It was grey and rainy here and has been for some time. By looking at the weather it’s going to be raining for some time still. That doesn’t matter when you can just pull out card and ink and play.

I grabbed the Under My Umbrella stamp set. Maybe because it was raining. Here is the card. I was surprised it didn’t take long to put together.

The images were coloured with the Stampin’ Blends.

You can find the Under My Umbrella stamp set in my store -> HERE. Don’t forget the Umbrella Punch too. That makes cutting the umbrellas out so easy. You do need to fussy cut the boots.

Have a happy day. If it’s raining where you are keep safe and dry.

STAMPIN’ UP! BUTTERFLY BIJOU MINI TREAT BAG + VIDEO!

March 19, 2021 Jenny Hayward

Today’s project and video is a little different. I have a cute Mini Treat Bag for you. It’s using the gorgeous Butterfly Bijou Designer Series Paper. I also have a couple of other versions in this design.

You can check the video below and I have the measurements further down so you can refer back to it.

Here is the Mini Treat Bag.

Notice the bottom edge? I diecut the “hatch” type die on it. Whether you stamp or diecut on this you will need to do this before you assemble the bag.

I added a detailed Diecut butterfly from the Brilliant Wings Dies set cut in Mint Macaron. I diecut a stitched circle with the Stitched Shapes Die between the butterfly and bag to help separate the 2 so the butterfly doesn’t get lost on the bag.

Here is the video. If you receive this post by email the video may not show so be sure to head to my blog to catch the video or heat to Youtube.

I made 2 other versions too. A sweet one with the Dandy Garden Suite. It’s a great way to use the dandelion paper. Also one with the Whale of A Time Designer Series Paper.

STAMPIN’ UP! BUTTERFLY BIJOU CARD WITH A SKETCH!

March 18, 2021March 18, 2021 Jenny Hayward

Last week on my Private Facebook group I shared a sketch and encouraged others to use the sketch to create a card. Of course, I had to create a card also. I love using sketches. They are a great spring-board to your creating.

This is the sketch. This is from the Freshly Made Sketches.

This is the card I created. I have used the gorgeous Butterfly Bijou Designer Series Paper. Of course you have seen it by now right. 🙂 So lovely.

For the shape on the sketch you can use any shape but I chose the butterfly as I have been creating with the Butterfly Brilliance products this past 2 weeks.

The sentiment is from the Many Messages set. Inside you can add another sentiment whether it is a Birthday or Thinking of You or whatever occasion. I punched the ends with the Banners Pick A Punch.

Maybe you can use this sketch in your next project. If you like, share it with me on my email at jghayward@yahoo.com I would love to see. It’s always fun to see other people’s interpretation.

Have a great day,

Check the Snailed It Bundle out. It has dies to cut the images but it there are other dies as well. The detailed mushrooms are just so cute. It also has the square “postage stamp” edge square which you can layer your images on but also what about the mini envelope die. What a fun addition!

The Snail Mail Designer Series Paper has some really cute images. The Colours found in the paper are Basic Gray, Bermuda Bay, Blushing Bride, Daffodil Delight and Real Red

Below are some fun samples with this suite created by Stampin’ Up! artists. You can see the mini envelopes. So cute!

BUTTERFLY BRILLIANCE IN MELON MAMBO!

March 11, 2021 Jenny Hayward

How cool are these large butterflies in the Butterfly Brilliance Stamp?? And I say Stamp (singular) as this is one big stamp.

Just a tip: It’s a good idea to use the Stamparatus for this big beauty. It’s great to be able to re-stamp if it doesn’t work well the first time. And it is so much easier to handle as it is quite large.

For this card I stamped the butterflies on white card using the Stamparatus and then coloured it with the Melon Mambo Stampin’ Blends. You can make your own background paper!

The sentiment is from the Peaceful Moments stamp set and the dies are from the Stitched So Sweetly dies.

Check the embossing on the black sentiment mat. It has these little “hatched” lines that you can emboss in to your card. This is with one of the Dies in the Butterfly Wings Dies set. I added some Magenta Madness ribbon which still tones in well.

You can’t see on the black card mat behind the butterflies but I embossed the piece with the Tasteful Textiles 3D Embossing Folder.

The Butterfly Brilliance is an early release bundle. They will continue on in the new upcoming catalogue.

The Papers that you can get with this release are only for a limited time so be sure to grab those VERY SOON. They are beautiful.

MOSSY MEADOW DRAGONFLY GARDEN CARD!

March 8, 2021March 7, 2021 Jenny Hayward

It will be a mix of dragonflies and butterflies this week. Some of these dragonflies cards I created months ago but now just getting to show you.

This card with the Dragonfly Garden Stamps and Punches was made as part of the Stampin’ Up! Virtual OnTour event back in November. You have probably seen versions of it in your blog travels.

This card uses strips of the Dandy Garden Designer Series Paper. It’s a fun layout I think. I really want to try this again. (…adds it to my ever-growing list of cards to do!)

It’s so easy with the Dragonfly Punch in this bundle to just stamp and punch out these dragonflies.

In Australia? You can find these Dragonflies in my store -> HERE.

Or you can contact me directly on 0439 844574.

Will it be dragonflies or butterflies next post?? Be sure to come and check it out.

Have a great week,

SINGLE STEP CARD WITH BUTTERFLY BRILLIANCE + VIDEO!

March 5, 2021March 5, 2021 Jenny Hayward

Today’s Friday Flicks is a Fun Fold creating a Single Step card. I couldn’t help but use the new Butterfly Brilliance bundle – Oh! and the gorgeous Butterfly Bijou Designer Series Paper.

I have made this fold before quite some time ago. It is still re-pinned so many times on Pinterest and many people head back to my blog to see it. I thought it would be good to freshen it up. You can see the original card -> HERE.

Check out the card. It is a bit hard to capture it in photos. It folds up easily to mail too.

I have the measurements for the card and all the different pieces further below. They are available in Metric and Imperial.

Here is the video which is now on Youtube. (Have you subscribed to my channel yet?)
