LIFE IS BEAUTIFUL – SPOTTY BACKGROUND

I wanted to share this card with you today using the Life Is Beautiful stamp set found in the 2020 Holiday Catalogue.  It is a sweet one.

This card was one we created in class a few weeks ago.  I found the idea on Pinterest BUT I didn’t save it so I don’t know the original creator so sorry about that.

I love the idea of using the “dots” in the set as a background.  These dots give a Bokeh effect too which is cool.  That is where there is different tone to the stamps, so  a light and dark effect.

I used Calypso Coral, Bumblebee and Granny Apple Green.  The words are from the Well Written Dies. It’s all layered on to a mat using the Ornate Layers Dies.

You can see the Life Is Beautiful set -> HERE in my store. 

In Australia? You can order there or contact me directly and I will help you out. If ordering online please use the Host Code: TAWWBMRC

Thank You for your order.  I appreciate each and every one.

Happy Stamping,

Jenny

SUNDAY SUITES – FOREVER GREENERY SUITE!

Today is a gorgeous suite for Sunday SuitesThe Forever Greenery Suite.  It is such a fresh suite with touches of gold for elegance.  It’s all just loveliness of green, my favourite colour. Let’s check it out!

This is all you find in the Forever Greenery Suite Collection.

The Forever Greenery Suite Collection includes:
* Forever Fern Cling Stamp Set
* Forever Greenery Designer Series Paper
* Forever Gold Laser-cut Specialty Paper
* Gold Hoops Embellishments
* Forever Greenery Trim Combo Pack
* Greenery Embossing Folders
* Forever Flourishing Dies

The Forever Fern Bundle includes the Forever Fern Cling stamp set and the Forever Flourishing Dies.  The Dies contain 14 dies of all different leaf shapes.  How fun are the Leaves to layer together.

Below is the Forever Greenery Designer Series Paper.

The colours in the paper are Garden Green, Just Jade, Pear Pizzazz, Pretty Peacock, Shaded Spruce, Soft Sea Foam, Whisper White. Aren’t they lovely green tones together?

For a touch of elegance in this suite is the Forever Gold Laser-Cut Specialty Paper.

Within this specialty pack are Pre-cut card fronts and greenery accents. Adhere a card front over a card base for a quick card, or easily add an accent to your projects. One side is white; the other side is gold foil. On the white side you can sponge or roller a colour on to co-ordinate with your project.  In the pack are 6 sheets: 3 each of 2 single-sided designs

See how one of the card fronts show on this card below.

On the card below you can add the white side to show a touch of white detail.

Now I have to say I was intrigued by these Gold Hoops in this suite.  What would you do with them??  You get 10 hoops measuring 5.4cm ( 2 1/28″).

See how they are used on the front of this card below.  Pretty cool idea to have them hang off the front of the card.

Or have them on the front of the box like this below.

Also in this suite is the Greenery Embossing Folders. There are 2 in the set.  They are slightly smaller measuring 15.9cm x 8.6cm (6 1/4″ x 3 3/8″).

On this card below it shows the Greenery Embossing Folder but check the hoop out on this card.  It encircles the sentiment.

LIFE IS BEAUTIFUL – DOUBLE LAYER CARD + VIDEO!

This card is one we made in class recently.  I wanted to share this video with you today to show you how to create it.

It is with the sweet Life Is Beautiful Stamp set and is using the Double Layer Technique.  That is using 2 layers of card mat that you stamp on and layer together.  The card was inspired by one I saw on Pinterest using the Sheltering Tree set.  It didn’t have a watermark and I couldn’t tell you who created it.  I changed it up a bit for this card though.

I found that it helped using the Stamparatus to stamp this to be sure to get a crisp stamping. It made it easy to re-stamp if I needed to.

I have the video below to see how you can create this card.

 

The Life is Beautiful stamp set has such lovely sentiments.

In Australia? Grab it in my store now -> HERE.

Or contact me directly and I can take care of your order.  Thank you so much for ordering. 🙂

Happy Stamping,

WEDNESDAY’S WOW! #109 – DIFFERENT CARDS WITH JUST A FEW CUTS!

Wednesday’s WOW! #109.  Today I have a cool tip for you.  How to create 3 different look cards by cutting one card piece in different ways.  I thought it was so clever and just wanted to share it with you.  It makes it very quick to put some cards together.

These cards are created by Stampin’ Up! artists using the Moving Along Stamp set but it’s a great idea that you could use with any stamp set.

Stampin' Up! Moving Along stamp set

You have the standard card size and a piece of Designer Series Paper which is the same for each card.  The Designer Series Paper is approximately 7.6cm x 12.7cm (3″ x 5″).  By cutting the white card you can create the different looks.

The Whisper White Cardstock is 9.5cm x 9.5cm (3-3/4″ x 3-3/4″)

1. The first card the white card is as is and the image stamped on the piece.   This is raised up off the card with Dimensionals.

2.  On the second card the white card is cut into four squares measuring 4.8cm x 4.8cm (1-7/8″ x 1-7/8″) and then stamped within the squares.  Each square is raised up off the card with Dimensionals.

3.  On the third card the white card is cut into three strips measuring (9.5cm x 3.2cm (3-3/4″ x 1-1/4″) and stamped. The stamped strips are raised up off the card using Dimensionals.

What a clever idea! I can’t wait to try this idea with some other stamps. I hope you find this idea helpful. If you try this idea be sure to send me a photo at jghayward@yahoo.com  I would love to see them.

What do you think of this fun Moving Along Stamp set?? I wish I had little kids to use this set.  It is so cute.

In Australia?  You can buy this set (or any of the other awesome products) in my store now -> HERE.  I would be happy to help you with your order if you would like me to order for you. Just drop me an email at jghayward@yahoo.com

Have a great day,

Jenny
