A Stamping Journey

STAMPIN’ UP! BY THE BAY CRAB!

April 27, 2023April 26, 2023 Jenny Hayward

I forgot to share this card with you.

This one is using the By The Bay Specialty Designer Series Paper which will finish very soon. So thought I better get to show you now.

The By The Bay Paper is so lovely with it’s shiny prints and such varied images.

There is actually 2 different prints I used on this card. And then I added a little stamping using the Seaside Bay Bundle (Stamps and Dies). The bird is from the Waves of Inspiration stamp set.

I stamped the crab in Sahara Sand and coloured it with the Petal Pink and the Mint Macaron Stampin’ Blends.

The Seaside Bay Bundle will be continuing on in the new catalogue but getting it now will save 10% as the Bundle rather than individually. Now if you want to grab some By The Bay paper then you better get on to it quickly. There is only days left.

In Australia and need some supplies?

I would love to help you. There are 2 ways to order.

Head to my store -> HERE. Please use the Host Code: RXX6ZW4V

Or contact me directly and I can add your order for you.

And if your order is over $90 I will send you out a Tutorial Bundle PDF which includes the instructions to 52 projects! That will keep you creating for a while.

Thanks for visiting me.

Happy Stamping,

Jenny

SWEET SUNDAY WITH TEACUPS!

April 23, 2023April 23, 2023 Jenny Hayward

I’m sad the Tea Boutique Suite is leaving us. We have had lots of fun with them especially at our Winter Crafternoon event last year.

I thought I would share some of the sweet projects created. The Teacup Dies are still available and the Tea Boutique Designer Series Paper. So you can still make yourself a cup of tea. BUT sadly the stamp set is not available anymore. That’s why you need to be quick on these Last Chance offerings. They don’t stay around long.

LINING UP THE ELEGANT BORDERS DIES!

April 13, 2023April 13, 2023 Jenny Hayward

You might have seen the gorgeous Elegant Borders Dies. They have such delicate edging to add to your cards.

You can add one edging BUT if you were to add 2 how do you line them up? Let me give you a little tip.

If the images aren’t loading I will add the descriptions below.

1. Make a mark in pencil at half way on each side of the card.

2. Line up the middle of the die with the mark.

3. Then diecut.

Hope this helps.

Here is the finished card. I used the retiring Art Gallery Stamp set. The retiring Two Tone Flora Designer Series Paper and the Elegant Borders Dies (part of the Online Exclusives).

I would love to help you grab any of these Stampin’ Up! products. See how you can order below.

Happy Stamping,

BUTTERFLY BRILLIANCE FOR COLOUR INKSPIRATIONS CHALLENGE!

April 3, 2023April 3, 2023 Jenny Hayward

I actually had time to play this weekend “Just Because”. It was nice to just dabble. I played along with the Colour Inkspirations Challenge #140. WOW! How awesome that it’s up to 140. I played along in the early days but just haven’t had time to lately.

The Colour Inkspirations Challenges can be seen -> HERE. You can see what others have created with these colours and even create one yourself and enter. Have a go.

Here is my card for the challenge for this week. It was nice subtle colours. I thought it would be good to drag out a stamp set I haven’t used for a while. And this Butterfly Brilliance Stamp Set is retiring very soon. So nice to ink it up again.

The colours were Petal Pink, So Saffron, Soft Sea Foam and Early Espresso (this one was a dark shade against those nice pastels).

Here is my card.

I blended the white card using the Blending Brushes with the Petal Pink, So Saffron and Soft Sea Foam. Then stamped the butterflies in Early Espresso. The sentiment from Happiness Abounds is stamped in Early Espresso too. The lovely Soft Sea Foam ribbon adds a little elegance.

I hope you like the card. Hope you get to play “just because” this week.

Have a great week,

Jenny

Have you made a Zig Zag Fold Card before? They are so easy and fun. The great thing I love about this fold too is that you get to see both sides of the gorgeous paper. Who really wants to hide one side away!

Here is the card.

Don’t forget the inside when you make one.

I have used the Hues of Happiness Paper. So pretty! And with the Happiness Abounds Bundle.

FANCY FLORA AND ELEGANT BORDERS BIRTHDAY CARD!

March 27, 2023March 27, 2023 Jenny Hayward

This card I shared creating it as an Instagram Reel last week. Did you catch it?

I thought I would share the card with you here.

I have used the Two-Tone Flora Bundle but what about those new Elegant Borders Dies? They are so detailed and gorgeous. The Two-Tone Flora Bundle works so well with them.

The Fancy Flora Designer Series Paper is so pretty too.

These are the Elegant Borders Dies. They are so lovely aren’t they with all the delicate details on them.

This is the Two-Tone Flora Bundle. It’s a 2-Step Stamp set which I love. So easy to work with and includes different flower sizes with the solid image and more detail. There are different leaves too.

You can see them more in my store -> HERE.

I think you will love to get these beautiful dies in your crafting stash. They are part of the Online Exclusives release so they are only around for a limited time.

SIMPLE HELLO IRRESISTIBLE CARD!

March 21, 2023March 21, 2023 Jenny Hayward

I know I have shown this gorgeous Hello Irresistible Paper a lot. But really, it is so gorgeous! And the great thing is those beautiful flowers and leaves can be cut simply and added to your cards.

The dies from the Irresistible Blooms set do diecut the flowers and leaves which is awesome and a real time-saver too. Or you can fussy cut them.

I have added them simply on this card with the white embossed with one of the new Basics 3D Embossing Folders.
