CURVY KEEPSAKES HANDBAG!!

Jenny Hayward

I am sure you have seen all the amazing creations around using the Curvy Keepsakes Framelits. They are so clever.  I have been making some projects myself with them and I will show you these another time.  When I first saw the Framelits I thought it would make a cute little handbag. Recently I have seen some floating around the internet.  I thought I would show you my Christmas version – and it uses the set ‘December Wonder’ that I have been focusing on this past week.

I am sorry I didn’t take a side-on view.  It would give you a better idea how it looks.  I will try and update this later. To create the bag I have used some of the Nordic Noel DSP.  I just cut the paper to size to fit half of the Framelit, the section with the curvy handle.  I cut 2 of these out.  Where the base is I trimmed off about 2cm (3/4″).  I added Sticky Strip to one of the bases and assembled the two together.  You can add some little chocolate treats and tie around some ribbon and add a tag.  For this tag I stamped the “Very Merry” in Garden Green and punched it out with the 1″ circle punch.  I cut one of the Oval tags that come with the Curvy Keepsakes framelits from the Gold Foil Sheets and layered them together with a little Real Red banner cut from the Bitty Banners Framelits.  I added 3 small pearls on the tag to finish and hung that from the ribbon with Whisper White Baker’s Twine. A cute treat bag in no time!!

I hope you enjoyed the projects this past week with the ‘December Wonder’ stamp set.  It is a fun set.  This is available in the Holiday Supplement Catalogue but these products are only available stocks are limited.  So get in soon for any of these items.  You can order directly from me or from my store HERE.

I hope you can join me again this week.  I will be away on a Family Holiday but I have some posts scheduled so don’t forget to stop by,

PETAL PARADE GIFT BAG!

Jenny Hayward

I wanted to show you a little gift bag I have been making at my workshops this month. They are so easy to make and gotta love the Sweet Sorbet DSP!!!

You can make these too.  Just head to Ronda’s blog here and and she will show you how.

To create the label on the front I have stamped Whisper White cardstock firstly with the greeting from ‘Simply Sketched’ and then stamped randomly in Pool Party, Crisp Canteloupe and Summer Starfruit using Petal Parade. You make the enclosure with the Scallop Tag Topper Punch and I have tied it off with Crisp Canteloupe Ruffled Ribbon.

I hope all is well where you are???  Have a good day 🙂

STOCKING CHRISTMAS BAGS!

Jenny Hayward

Christmas has come and gone but I wanted to show you these gift bags.  I created these for some customers who ordered gifts for other people for Christmas.  I had some stockings left over from my Christmas Gift packaging class a few weeks ago.  I had a template for the stockings and could print them off directly onto the card.  We had created Gift card holders with them.  (We joined 2 together with the topper).

 Here is the Gift Bag.

For the stocking, I embossed the Old Olive stocking part with the Vintage Wallpaper Embossing Folder.  The Real Red pieces were embossed with the Perfect Polka Dots Embossing Folder.  I added the tag from the Stitched Stocking stamp set but I am still really not sure about that addition???

Here is a close-up.

The presents were created by punching out DSP with the 1 1/4″ square punch.  (The gold card is not SU!).  I created the bows with the Blossom Bouquet Triple Layer Punch.  I thought they looked pretty cute!!!

Once I worked out how to create them it was quite quick to put together.

I hope you have had a lovely Christmas??? For us, it’s been a nice time  sharing it with family.  The last 2 days have been spent collecting together the gift wrapping and packaging!

I hope you stop by and visit again soon.  I can start showing you some new creations now instead of Christmas cards!

SUMMER MINI CHRISTMAS TAGS!!

Jenny Hayward

Last Friday I had my Summer Mini Catalogue Launch and it was my last class for the year.  I am a bit sad about that.  I love meeting up with my lovely ladies, although I am looking forward to a little break.  I just wanted to show you the fun project we did.  Christmas is almost upon us (17 days to go apparently I was reminded of today – and I still have to hit the shops!). I thought it would be good to create some Christmas tags as I haven’t had a chance to get any done in classes so far.  This is the little bag and tags.  (sorry it is a bit hard to catch the bag without the glare).

To create this I cut a large scallop circle with the Big Shot and then embossed with the Vintage Wallpaper Embossing Folder.  This was folded in half and 2 holes punched with the Crop-A-Dile to thread the Old Olive Satin Ribbon through.  The backing to the bag is a piece of Old Olive Card measuring 10cmx16cm and attached inside the Scallop Circle topper with Sticky Strip.  You can then attach a cellophane bag onto the card piece with sticky strip.  The ‘Joy at Christmas’ label is punched from Perfect Punches in Cherry Cobbler and Old Olive.  A rhinestone is added to the label although you can’t see that too clearly.

Here is a close up of the tags.  At the launch they made 4 of each.

For both of them I punched out a 6cm (2 3/8″) scallop circle in Cherry Cobbler.   On the left is the tag from Stitched Stockings set stamped in Old Olive.  A small bow from Old Olive Taffeta ribbon was added to the top (Yes, I know it was small I heard enough complaints the whole time about how hard it was to tie the bows – Sorry ladies!!!!)

On the right we used the new A la Carte stamp ‘Stylish Star’.  It was embossed in silver on Whisper White card and punched out with the 1 3/8″ circle punch.  A 1 3/4″ circle in Old Olive was punched out and they were both added to the Scallop Circle.  I added a large Rhinestone in the centre.  A hole was punched at the top and the new Cherry Cobbler Twine was tied on.  I love that new Twine it is so soft.  It comes in the Cherry Cobbler, Early Espresso and the White – so good!!!  I haven’t shown the back on this one but we also punched out a circle with the 1 3/4″ in Whisper White and “to” and “from” from the set ‘Fabulous Phrases’ was stamped in Cherry Cobbler.

Hope your not getting too frantic with the Christmas chaos.  I might even head out to the shops.  I am so bad.  I have never left it this late for Christmas shopping but life has been a little choatic lately!

Thanks for stopping by.  Come visit again soon and don’t forget to say Hi and leave a comment when you stop by 🙂
