December Product of the Month has just been released. This is the gorgeous True Blue Florals 12″x12″ Designer Series Paper.

What do you think??

Here are some projects with this paper. I will be back later to share more with you.

With this one below the lined flowers were fussy cut from one of the papers. It looks so great. The other smaller flowers were cut from another pattern and the centres coloured in yellow.

Use your paper as the card base as a different option.

This one below uses 3 patterns from the paper. And those lovely flowers from the Pretty Florals Bundle but you could use any stamps/dies.

That about a patchwork design. It’s a great way of showing off the different patterns. For this one diecut a number of squares. Having the “dotted” edge from the Stylish Shapes gives a good effect but you could cut your squares with a Paper Trimmer. With the paper squares and some of the white square cut them in half diagonally. I would suggest then laying the pieces out in your patchwork look pattern before you adhere them down. And a TIP: maybe cut a piece of card the same size as your finished piece and adhere the white triangles and paper triangles directly to them to make it easier.

Don’t miss out on your Product of the Month this month. But remember these are WHILE SUPPLIES LAST.

If you need to shop for your supplies and you are in Australia then I would love to help you get them. You can head to my store -> HERE OR Contact me directly.

SWEET SUNDAY WITH A BLUE ELF – AND SOME STENCILLING…

Jenny Hayward

Sweet Sunday. It’s a cute blue elf wishing you a Merry Christmas.

This is with the Festive Friends Bundle. The elf was coloured with the Stampin’ Blends and I diecut the trees and the snowflake from the die set. The Misty Moonlight card mat was embossed with the Peaceful Greenery Embossing Folder.

I have been wanting to do more with stencilling too so I pulled out the retired Linked Together Masks to give them a go. Not quite the effect I was going for but I think it works ok perhaps. I was wanting a little more contrast between the light blue and the darker blue highlights.

I added a strip of the Peaceful Garden Paper which I had torn the top edge of and layed it on the White card before diecutting with one of the rectangles from the Textured Notes Dies. Then I adhered the strip down and added it to the card with Dimensionals.

The Festive Friends set is a cute one with this elf and santa and the snowman. I think I haved used it quite a lot this Christmas for those cute cards.

Hope your Christmas cards are coming together well.

Happy Crafting,

‘TIS THE SEASON WITH THE STAMPIN’ UP! ORNAMENTAL CHRISTMAS BUNDLE ~

Jenny Hayward

One with the Stampin’ Up! Ornamental Christmas Bundle today.

'Tis the Season with the Stampin' Up! Ornamental Christmas Bundle

Do you add texture on your cards? There are different types of texture here. The embossed background, gold detailed star diecut and some soft satin ribbon. And of course add the bling. Adding the texture adds extra dimension and interest on a card so it is not so flat looking.

If one of your cards is not quite looking right or looking a little flat maybe see how you can add some texture as some type of element. It will make a big difference.

This is the Ornamental Christmas Bundle I have used.

You can see it more -> HERE.

Happy Christmas Creating,

Jenny

ANOTHER SHINY, GOLD CARD WITH THE STAMPIN’ UP! MODERN CHRISTMAS PAPER

Jenny Hayward

More with the Stampin’ Up! Modern Christmas Specialty Paper. I have loved playing with this paper. It is so shiny and so classy for Christmas this year.

I have to say though. It is hard to take a photo with all the shine and glare you get. I used 2 different patterns of the paper together with this one and then a simple sentiment diecut with a circle from the Spotlight on Nature Dies.

I added texture by embossing a strip of Garden Green card with the Soft Waves Embossing Folder. Layering the pieces of paper on a card mat gives some contrast. The Cherry Cobbler piece was diecut with one of the rectangles in the Textured Notes Dies.

This would be a simple design if you have to mass produce your Christmas cards. It still adds a little class and shine but easy to cut and stick together in no time.

Hope your Christmas cards are going well.

Happy Crafting,

Jenny

ADDING A SHINY GOLD SENTIMENT WITH THE ORNAMENTAL CHRISTMAS BUNDLE

Jenny Hayward

Christmas time is certainly the occasion for some gold and shine. This is a simple card with shine using the Modern Christmas Specialty Paper. And the addition of the Ornamental Christmas Bundle.

Initially I stamped the sentiment in black ink on the Garden Green card. It just felt flat. After a couple of days I came back to it and I redid it and heat embossed the sentiment in Gold. That made it extra shiny and classy.

If a card is not working sometimes it’s just a matter of redoing the sentiment to give it a little WOW! especially with some shiny gold.

I’m loving the Ornamental Christmas Bundle and the Modern Christmas Paper. The paper is not your traditional red and green but you can add those colours as well. It gives you extra class.

This is the Ornamental Christmas Bundle.

This is the Modern Christmas Specialty Paper.

SWEET SUNDAY WITH THE CAKE DAY BUNDLE ~

Jenny Hayward

It’s Sweet Sunday time. And it is literally sweet if this was real.

Try this cake with the layers and drizzling icing. Add some Macarons and meringes and sprinkles. You can even add the candles and sparklers. At least with this version you would be safe from a sugar coma.

This is created with the Cake Day Bundle just released. A die can create a folded cake piece card which is cool. Or add the front piece just to your card. Then add the fun elements.

This is the Cake Day Bundle. This has just been released as Online Exclusives. You can see it more -> HERE.

CLASSY GOLD WITH THE STAMPIN’ UP! ORNAMENTAL CHRISTMAS BUNDLE ~

Jenny Hayward

I have played a lot with the Stampin’ Up! Ornamental Christmas Bundle and the Modern Christmas Specialty Paper. It is so gorgeous.

For this one I added a little more classy gold.

To create this diecut an ornament shape from Gold Foil then position it in the Christmas Words Collage Embossing Folder. You can see the words to get the best place. Then emboss through your Diecut Machine.

Also diecut an ornament from the lovely Modern Christmas paper too. Add a strip of black card and then some diecut gold dots.

If you don’t have this particular bundle you could still get a similar look. You may have another ornament style punch or die and even a different Embossing Folder. Gold adds a lot of class for your Christmas cards.

Happy Crafting.

FLIP IT FUN FOLD CARD + VIDEO

Jenny Hayward

Today’s video is a Flip It card. I don’t know what it’s actual name is but that’s what I call it. I’m going to show you how.

This is the card.

The front panel stands up when you Flip It.

Then when it lays flat.

It is a little larger than a standard card so you may need to make an envelope to fit or give it directly to your special person. You may want to explain how it flips too so they can see the fun of it (and give you a WOW!)

I used the cute Festive Friends Stamps and Dies. You can create this for any occasion whether it is Christmas or Birthday or some other special event.

Here is the video to create your own Or head straight to my Youtube.

Hope you get to make one. As always I will send the writtent tutorial to my Newsletter Subscribers next week. I send out a Tutorial each week. If you would like to receive my Tutorials then you can subscribe to them. The Tab is on the Right Hand Side Bar on my blog.

Happy Crafting,

Jenny
