Back with the Poetic Petals. This was one of the first cards I made with these dies.
I have to say this was a redo of the first one though.
I wasn’t happy with how it had turned out so I ripped off the pieces and put the card together again. This time put the flowers and squares on a white card mat rather than the patterned paper mat I had it on. The flowers and squares showed up much better. I coloured the flowers with the Pencils. The white card was embossed with the Softly Woven Embossing Folder.
NOTE: While many of the these stamps have dies to go with them purchasing the stamps during the sale and then the Dies separately will work out cheaper then purchasing them as a bundle.

Happy Reading today. It’s always exciting when a new catalogue comes your way.
I have been creating recently with the Framed Violets Bundle and the gorgeous Violet Dreams Specialty Paper.
I created the first one diecutting the scalloped oval from the paper and adding more of the paper with the black dotted print behind it. The flower is one of the black pre-printed diecuts in the pack and I coloured it with the Stampin’ Blends.
BUT, don’t waste that oval diecut. I then added it to another card.
On this card I embossed just half the card with the Soft Waves Embossing Folder. To do this add the card in just to halfway and emboss as usual. It can leave a slight mark but you can add ribbon or a strip of card or paper to cover that if it bothers you. I like that it leaves a smooth area to stamp your sentiment.
Then the paper oval was added with Dimensionals and I coloured one of the black diecuts with the Stampin’ Blends on this one too.
The Violet Dreams Suite is a very pretty one. And did I mention that paper that has the pretty diecuts in?? Many are already coloured which is good for me and some are black and white. So easy to add to your cards.
You can see it more -> HERE. And order too if you would love for your crafting.
Time for some Hidden Gems. Sometimes these products get a little lost on the store front but it’s good to let them shine.
Speaking of shine – What about these Gilded Wings Accents? They are certainly shiny and Gold.
These Gilded Wings Accents are a 12″x12″ sheet full of Gold Foil Butterflies. They vary in size and style. So many to add to your projects! You can easily add them with any adhesive.
If you want the Gold shine to your projects but don’t have the Hot Foil Machine these are a great alternative.
Here are some projects created by Stampin’ Up! Artists to show you how they look. Doesn’t it add such elegance to your projects.
The added bonus with these Accents is that they are now on the Last Chance List. Which also means they are reduced from $17.50 to $15.75 (AUD – so check your market).
When these sell out they are gone for good so don’t let them flutter away.
If you are in Australia you can catch them -> HERE. Don’t miss the other Last Chance items either.
The Glow of Harvest Specialty Designer Series Paper is this month’s Product of the Month. I have been creating with it for a few weeks now as part of the Demonstrator Council.
The paper has lovely fall/Autumn patterns. We don’t create that much for those type of occasions in Australia. It works well for other occasions though as I discovered when I started playing with it.
This is the paper.
I thought this print worked well with the cow from the Wild Bunch set. And maybe I had one already coloured – and it worked!!
You could replace the idea with something else you have.
The Glow of Harvest paper has a really nice sheen to it. Just a subtle sparkle.
You can select this paper when you place your qualifying order. In Australia if your order is over $125, Select this paper and you only pay an additional $9.
If you need to order you can head to my store -> HERE Or contact me directly and I can help you out.
Happy Crafting,
Jenny
Oh! and one more thing. The Last Chance List has been updated too.
You can head -> HERE to check the products that will be leaving very soon.
I have been playing with the Violet Dreams Suite this last week. I will share more soon but this is the card I started out with.
I wasn’t sure where to go first. This card was CASED from one from Stampin’ Up!. I just added a little more stamping and more ribbon.
I liked the idea of stamping on the paper. It’s just a subtle amount in the corner rather than all over. The flowers are pre-diecut from the paper and I coloured them with Stampin’ Blends as they had in the original.
The Fresh Freesia ribbon is so satin-ny and adds a little elegance to the card.
I like this Sending Love sentiment. I like sending out cards like that to share a little love.
This is Violet DreamsSuite including the paper, ribbon and the Framed Violets Bundle.
Have a look at the Violet Dreams Paper. I think that is my favourite part of the suite. I love the soft images and pretty purple colours.
This is a closer look at the diecut sheets from the paper.
The Violet DreamsSuite is available now Online -> HERE. Or you can contact me directly. I would love to help you get this gorgeous suite. (If you are in Australia).

We can’t miss the cow with the Wild Bunch Stamp Set.
I coloured this cow with the Stampin’ Blends and layered it on some of the Lovely Blossoms Paper. I thought that paper worked well for this cow. What do you think?
It’s nice to give a card to “send some love”. Hope you get to send out a card for that soon to someone who needs a little “love”.
Have a great day,
Jenny
Unfortunately the Wild Bunch Stamp Set is now sold out. I hope you had a chance to get one but you can substitute the idea with something you have.
