GET ON THE DIAGONAL WITH THE CURVY CHRISTMAS!

Today’s card with the Curvy Christmas stamp set is one we made in our Curvy Class recently. I think it is my favourite of the cards. It is simple but really do you need much more with these gorgeous Curvy Dies??

The paper is from the Classic Christmas pack. I love all the different patterns in this pack and they are in the 3 colours – Cherry Cobbler, Shaded Spruce and Crumb Cake.

For this card I chose the diagonal print in the Cherry Cobbler. Each person in the class could choose their own print so it was good to see the different look just with having a different print. I should have taken a photo of them.

The piece of Designer Series Paper is just slightly smaller than the card base.

Just a tip when cutting the white card – Check which way the blade is BEFORE cutting. You want to make sure that the “scallop” pattern is along the top of the die and the cutting edge is along the bottom. Not the other way around or it will just cut a curved line. 🙂

After cutting the white card then stamp the sentiment in Cherry Cobbler. Add a few stars in Crumb Cake too.

2 great leaf sprigs were cut with the leaf die in the set in Shaded Spruce and adhered together on to the left hand edge. The Linen Thread bow is adhered with a glue dot. And why not finish with bling. I added a Gold Faceted Gem.

If you want to grab the Curvy Christmas or the Classic Christmas paper you only have until the beginning of January. Well really you will want it earlier so you can get some Christmas cards made right. 🙂

SUNDAY SUITES – POINSETTIA PLACE SUITE!

Today’s Sunday Suites is the Poinsettia Place Suite. It’s about time I checked this suite out. It is so gorgeous and has been so popular. So let’s look at it.

This is all that is in the Poinsettia Place Suite Collection.

The Poinsettia Place Suite Collection includes:
– Poinsettia Petals Photopolymer Stamp Set
– Poinsettia Dies
– Poinsettia Place Designer Series Paper
– Plush Poinsettia Specialty Paper
– Beaded Pearls
– Real Red 3/8″ (1 cm) Sheer Ribbon

The paper itself is just so gorgeous. Check it out below.

This is the Poinsettia Petals Bundle with the stamp set and the dies.

Some of the dies cut the stamped flower shape and some create an embossing on the leaves. Check it out.

We need to look closer at the Poinsettia Place Designer Series Paper.

You get 12 sheets of 6 different designs. The colours in the prints are Bumblebee, Garden Green, Old Olive, Real Red, Soft Suede, Whisper White. Some of these flowers on the prints you can cut out and just have that on your projects.

BUT, how gorgeous is this Plush Poinsettia Specialty Paper. I have shared some projects with this recently. The flocked designs are on white vellum and look so beautiful as a background or layered over patterned paper. Ooh! And they feel so good.

You need to see some products with this gorgeous array of products. Pretty papers and pretty stamps. These are created by Stampin’ Up! artists.

Some of that gorgeous Plush Poinsettia paper on these projects. Also in this suite of products are these beautiful Beaded Pearls. They make lovely centres for the projects.

And another project using completely different colourings to the suite but still showing the gorgeousness.

Not much time left to get the Poinsettia Place Suite of products. You can see them and order in my store -> HERE.

Or you can conact me directly to place your order.

Have a great Sunday,

Jenny

MERRY CHRISTMAS WITH JOY TO THE WORLD!

Another variation with the Joy To The World Kit. This is a very simple version.

This time I stamped the wreath over a Crumb Cake card base to give that ‘tone-on-tone’ effect. The wreath was also stamped on to white card. The “Merry Christmas” was stamped over the wreath in Cherry Cobbler. This white card piece was matted onto a piece of Just Jade card.

To finish wrap the Cherry Cobbler twine a couple of times around the piece and tie in a bow. Then adhere it to the Crumb Cake card base with Dimensionals. Finish with a Gold Faceted Gem.

It’s great that you can use the beautiful stamp set for other Christmas cards.

Don’t forget to stamp the envelope.

Only a couple of days left to get the Joy To The World Kit. In Australia? You can grab one in my store -> HERE.

Thanks. Have a great weekend,

TEAM CARD SWAPS!

I shared recently a card I made for our recent Team Card swaps. That was the card shown in last week’s video. Today I thought I would share the swaps I received.

Part of the fun of our stamping events like Onstage is swapping and since we couldn’t all be together this year I thought it would be still fun to hold a swap. Some of my JEN’s INK team joined in. You might like to see the cards.

My card is the Highland Heather card in the bottom left with the Curvy Celebrations bundle. There was quite a mix of Christmas and other occasions. I think these cards are great what do you reckon?? Give them a cheer.

QUITE CURVY CARD IN CALYPSO CORAL!

Today’s card was created in my Facebook Live on Wednesday. Yes! I have ventured in to doing Lives. This is something I have put off for so long. But I am hoping that each Wednesday afternoon I can share a card with you on Facebook.

The video is now on my Youtube channel and I will post it here for you. For the card I used the Quite Curvy Bundle. I am loving these stamps and dies.

Here is the card.

The leaves were coloured with the Stampin’ Blends. I used the Wrapped In Texture Embossing Folder and the sentiment piece is diecut with the Tasteful Labels Dies.

I had made one of these cards before the Live for a swap card in my JEN’s INK Team Facebook Group. It was great to get some of my team creating for that. I will share the other swap cards soon. The card I made for the swap was in Highland Heather.

If you are in Australia and want to be part of these fun team card swaps and other activities we do then why not come and be a part of my JEN’s INK Team. You can find 9 reasons why you would want to -> HERE.

WEDNESDAY’S WOW #113 – DRESS UP YOUR ENVELOPES!

Shelli, (Stampin’ Up!’s wonderful co-founder) has stated that there should be no naked envelopes. 🙂 I’m guilty of that all the time I have to say. What about you?

I have discovered these fun products in the Holiday Catalogue to dress up our envelopes. They look really fancy. For Wednesday’s WOW! #113 – Why not dress up your envelopes with the Ornamental Envelopes Bundle.

I think these products are overlooked in the catalogue. The ornaments in the Ornamental Envelopes stamp set are gorgeous but I really wanted to focus on the Envelopes Dies.

Below is the Ornamental Envelopes Bundle.

Check out the Envelopes Dies closer though.

 The Envelopes Dies consists of 12 dies. 4 Envelope liners, 1-2 decorative edges, and some other elements to diecut in to your paper liners or directly on to the envelope. It also has the dies to cut the ornaments from the stamp set too. The Largest die measures 6-3/16″ x 2-1/2″ (15.7 x 6.4 cm).

So how do you use these dies?? Check out the samples below.

On this one create a decorative wrap for your envelope. How fancy is that?? You can line inside the envelope as well.

Not just line the inside but you can make a pretty decorative liner for inside. How sweet! Or you can diecut the outside and add a liner inside of pretty paper that you can see through the edge.

For this one below I am not sure but I think that for the envelope a mask was made with one of the decorative dies and some coloured texture paste has been added through the mask. This adds to the festive feel.

If you want to dress up your envelopes with the Ornamental Envelopes Bundle or even just the Envelopes Dies you can check them out and order them in my store -> HERE
