I have to show you this new product in the Stampin’ Up! Holiday Catalogue supplement that was just released on Monday.  Stars just typify Christmas don’t you think and why not ‘Many Merry Stars’.

These kits contain all you need to create 26 stars.  All the diecut papers and embellishments.They come in all different sizes and look fun to sit on the top of a shelf or under the tree.

Here is a video to show you how they are put together.

 

But don’t just think of them as stars sitting on the shelf.  There are so many other beautiful ways to create them.  Check out this gorgeous display.

12 WEEKS OF CHRISTMAS – WEEK 2!

Jenny Hayward

 

Latte 12 weeks Header

It’s Thursday and today I bring you the second week of our “12 Weeks of Christmas”.  Today it is Virginia’s turn to bring you the project that I am sharing.  Check this out!

Box

It is a cute little Christmas Village scene in a Card in a Box.  How sweet is it??? These are great too as they fold flat to fit in a standard size envelope.

Virginia has used Basic Black and Very Vanilla A4  cardstock. The Designer Series Paper used is the ‘Typeset’ pack from the Annual Catalogue.  The cute houses are from the set ‘Holiday Home’ from the Holiday Catalogue.  They have been stamped in Memento Tuxedo Black Ink and coloured with Blendabilities. The gold stars have been punched from Gold Glimmer Paper and some have been ‘suspended’ by gluing them to strips of the Window Sheet.  The Christmas trees are from the same Holiday Home stamp set, stamped in Mossy Meadow while the brown trees were double stamped in Baked Brown Sugar and Crumb Cake inks.  Virginia added some accents on the trees by dabbing on Versamark ink and sprinkling Iridescent Ice Embossing Powder and heat setting with a heat gun. Here is a close-up so you can see them.

BLACKBERRY BLISS SNOWFLAKE THINLETS!

Jenny Hayward

I made this card a few weeks ago and realised I hadn’t shown you.  I think I shared it on my Facebook page but forgot here.  SO, here it is! This is one of the first cards I made using the Snowflake Thinlets from the Holiday Catalogue.

P1140334                      P1140335

These cards are a bit hard to photograph but I hope you get the idea.  I extended the card so it has a little fold out flap. On this flap I adhered some Gold Vellum and a strip of the Gold Foil Sheet.  I cut the snowflakes and the joy word out from Gold Foil sheet also and adhered them on the card.  I stamped the snowflakes from the set ‘Cheerful Tags’ over the Blackberry Bliss card.  I think they co-ordinate so well with this Thinlet.  I finished it off with a Gold Twine bow on the front snowflake. Hope you like???

Thanks for stopping by today.  Do say Hello.  I love to hear from you.  🙂

A TRIO OF SANTA’S!

Jenny Hayward

Have you seen this cute set in the Holiday Catalogue “Get Your Santa On”.  I love  colouring the images.  I have a few things in mind with this set but first I just played around with some simple cards.  Check them out!

P1140434

Aren’t they cute!

They are similar layouts.  The one on the right is one we did at my Stamp-A-Stacks on the weekend. I used the ‘On Point’ Embossing Folder and the Nordic Noel DSP.  I also used the Starburst Framelits or the Circle Framelits.  The red ribbon is the Real Red Satin Woven Ribbon.  I love that ribbon.  It is so easy to use and tie.

To colour him I used the Cherry Cobbler Blendabilities pack.  The lightest colour is a good match to Real Red.  How good is that!!  I used the Nude colour in the Skin Tone pack for his cheeks and the darkest colour in the Smoky Slate pack. You can’t see it in this photo but I used some Dazzling Diamonds applied with the 2 way Glue pen.

Here they are close-up.

ORNAMENTAL PINE!

Jenny Hayward

I have made quite a few of these cards recently to send out with the Holiday Catalogue.  I really liked this stamp set when I first saw it.  Most days I see these type of pine trees when I go walking. I love that you get some beautiful images Plus special greetings all in the one set.

P1140275

I have used Mossy Meadow and Cherry Cobbler which might be a popular colour combination this Christmas.  I love the richness of them together.  I embossed the Mossy Meadow piece with the ‘Decorative Dots’ Embossing Folder.  I stamped the pine branch in Mossy Meadow on Whisper White and then cut it out with the Labels Framelits.  I stamped the pinecone in Baked Brown Sugar ink and cut it out.  This was raised up off the White stamped piece with a little Gold Twine bow added.  The Greeting was stamped in Cherry Cobbler onto a strip of Baked Brown Sugar card and then I flagged the ends.  This was raised up off the card too.  A simple card but one that is easily reproduced many times I think.

Have a great day,

Jenny

BORDERING BLOOMS!

Jenny Hayward

A couple of weeks ago I had a chance to play with the ‘Bordering Blooms’ set.  This was my first time playing with Photopolymer stamps too.  I have to say I loved them.  Love how they stick to the block and stay!!! They are very easy to use too being able to see clearly through the block.  So here are the cards I made then.

This first one was CASED from Pinterest by Shelly Godby.  Her version was a lot more gorgeous and she stamped the inside too but I was happy with this.  I used Crisp Canteloupe and Baked Brown Sugar.  The scallop edge under the border was using the Dotted Scallop Ribbon Punch.  The greeting is from ‘Wetlands’.

P1140198

Another quick card.  This one was CASED from Sharon Burkert on Pinterest.  Her card had a White Card base.  I decided to make mine on a coloured card base so I used Hello Honey.  I think this will look good on any colour base.  I will try that sometime soon.  The little flowers were punched from the ‘Itty Bitty Accents Pack’.  The greeting was from ‘Blooming with Kindness’.  I coloured Adhesive Pearls with the Calypso Coral Blendabilities set.

P1140193

I liked this simple layout so I thought I would make it into a Christmas Card.  My first for the season. It’s a bit hard to get your head around Christmas yet but since the Holiday Catalogue is out very soon I have to make a start.

P1140191

I used Cherry Cobbler and stamped the “vine” type image in Mossy Meadow.  The pearls were coloured with the Cherry Cobbler Blendabilities.

One more – sorry.  This next one I made for a workshop last week.  After stamping the blooms I coloured them with the Blendabilities.  The greeting is from the hostess set ‘Hello There’.  I added a little of the Gold sequins, Gold Twine and some paper piercing.  I haven’t used this colour combination for some time using Rich Razzleberry and Wisteria Wonder.

P1140195

Hope you liked them.  I think these will be a great addition to your stamp collection suitable for many occasions.  Check it out below.  You can buy this or any other Stampin’ Up! products in my Online store.  Check the link in the right hand side bar.

Thanks for stopping by today. The rain is still pouring down here but it is good to have it.  The grass was looking a little brown. Hope all is well in your part of the world.  🙂
