A SIMPLE CARD WITH THE THANKFUL GARDEN STAMP SET!

April 3, 2025April 3, 2025 Jenny Hayward

Recently we had the Thankful Garden Class. I showed different ways of using the Stamps, Dies and Masks. Everyone created 3 cards.

I like to start off with a very simple card. Then step them up and then usually a different technique or Fun Fold.

This was the Simple card. Just stamping the big flowers on the card and adding some pretty paper from the Unbounded Beauty Paper.

This is a great one when you don’t feel like colouring. But if the colouring urge grabs you it’s an easy one to colour. It has Masks in the Bundle which you can colour with ink and the Blending Brushes. Or you could colour them with the Stampin’ Blends or other colouring mediums.

I have to point out the sentiment rectangle piece. These are my new favourite. They are the Textured Notes Dies. I have talked about these previously but they are gorgeous. They have different edgings around the rectangles. You can use them on their own or layering them together.

If you are in Australia I would love to help you grab your latest crafting goodness. You can head to my Store -> HERE.

Don’t miss out on the Last Chance retiring items though too. Great discounts there.

AND, if you are a Wollongong Local and would love to get together with some new found friends and be creative I would love you to join my classes. We always look forward to people joining us. Drop me a Comment or an email and I can tell you about it.

Happy Crafting,

Jenny

WEDNESDAY’S WOW! 167 – TEXTURED NOTES DIES SIZES

March 26, 2025March 26, 2025 Jenny Hayward

Wednesday’s WOW! #167 – What’s the sizes of the Textured Notes Dies??

People often ask the sized of the Textured Notes Dies. And that’s a good question. You want to know how they will fit on your card.

So here you go. I put together this little chart that shows the sizes. Save it for future reference.

These dies are part of the Textured Notes Bundle but I particularly like the Dies. They have different markings on the edges that create embossed look on the edge of your card. Use them to create a frame or to add an image directly on them. They are very versatile on their own or layer them together.

The Dies and stamps have just been released as an Online Exclusives this month.

You can see the Dies more in store -> HERE.

You can see the Bundle more in store -> HERE.

I am loving these dies. They are very versatile and I think they will be a great one for your collection.

Hope that is helpful for you.

Happy Crafting,

SUNDAY SUITES – MIXED MEDIA FLORALS ~

March 23, 2025 Jenny Hayward

It’s Sunday Suites Time. Today with the Mixed Media Florals Suite.

There is a lot included in this suite so let’s check it out.

The Mixed Media Florals Suite consists of:

The Mixed Florals Bundle
The Mixed Labels Bundle
Plaster Painting 3D Embossing Folder
Mixed Media Florals Designer Series Paper
Low-Profile Dots (140 in total in 2 sizes) Petal Pink and Gold

Let’s look at these a bit closer.

The Mixed Florals Bundle

The Mixed Labels Bundle

I have to say the Dies on their own are even great. You can use them for a number of different sentiments if you don’t want to use these.

The Plaster Painting Embossing Folder

The Mixed Media Florals Designer Series Paper

The paper has a number of different Mixed Media techniques in the paper. According to Stampin’ Up! it includes gouache, watercolour, and digital art. It’s sounds all impressive and looks even more impressive. I had to look up gouache. This is a water-Based paing that is opaque and has a matte finish. It’s made from natural pigment, water, and a binding agent like gum arabic or dextrin. Gouache is similar to watercolor but is more opaque and less transparent.

The colours are gorgeous together. You can colour the Black and White prints if you wish to.

The colours in this paper are Basic Black, Boho Blue, Calypso Coral, Daffodil Delight, Flirty Flamingo, Granny Apple Green, Mossy Meadow, Petal Pink, Poppy Parade, Shy Shamrock.

So let’s see what Stampin’ Up! has created with these great products.

Lots of diecutting for this one.

The paper background gives the impression of a sunny sky. It’s pretty.

Try a little White Heat Embossing and then colour the image with White ink. It gives a chalkboard effect perhaps.

This one let’s the deep texture with the Embossing Folder stand out.

And create a small gift box with some of the pretty paper.

This Suite of products is an Online Exclusives. You can buy the full Suite ($225.00 AUD) or buy each of the items individually.

You can see more of this Suite in the Store -> HERE. You can Order them directly there or Contact me to help you.

Happy Sunday,

MINI BEAUTIFUL BUTTERFLIES CARD!

March 15, 2025 Jenny Hayward

I have been sharing a lot with the Beautiful Butterflies Bundle. It is a gorgeous one. You might have caught the 5 Ways with the Beautiful Butterflies Video I posted just recently. You can find this in a previous post on my blog or now on Youtube. But I will also have the link below if you missed it.

This is one of the cards I created. It is a Mini Beautiful Butterflies folded card in Fresh Freesia.

MAKE IT YOURSELF:

To create this place your die on the fold line of your card base with the little score marks on the die lining up on the fold. Diecut it out. You will have a fold card. If you want some pretty paper on the butterfly adhere your paper to the front of the card first. I used the Beautiful Bokeh paper for this one.

I added a detailed diecut body in white on the front of the card.

If you missed the tip on how to cut the black body then be sure to check on my page or on the video -> HERE.

If you have the Beautiful Butterflies I hope you get to make one similar. Have a play with it. It’s lots of fun.

This is the Beautiful Butterflies Bundle. You can see it more in my store -> HERE.

If you are in Australia and need some crafty supplies, please stop by my store -> HERE. OR Contact me directly.

Happy Crafting,

TRY THE FAUX WATERCOLOUR TECHNIQUE WITH THE VIDEO~

March 8, 2025March 8, 2025 Jenny Hayward

I came across the Faux Watercolour Technique recently. I was intrigued and had to try it. I thought you might like it too so I put together a video. You can follow along and give it a try.

As you watch you might see it is a bit like the Smooshing Technique. But there are some differences.

Here is the video.

Here is the card I created.

The Thankful Garden Bundle includes Stamps, Dies and Masks and is an Online Exclusives.

If you have missed it you can see it online -> HERE.

I have also used the Soft Waves 3D Embossing Folder which adds a nice, curvy texture. Also, using the Arched Dies for the sentiment adds a different element.

Hope you like it and get to try the technique yourself.

Happy Crafting,

Jenny

STAMPIN’ UP! HEART SHAPED STAMPS AND DIES IN LAVENDER!

February 24, 2025February 23, 2025 Jenny Hayward

I have been loving the Heart Shaped Stamps and Dies.

They are so pretty. The elegant leafy heart die is different to your regular diecut heart. I think this type of heart can be used for many different occasions not just for the “love” type cards.

I teamed it with the Perennial Lavender Paper. I think we move on to the new and greatest new thing and forget the “older” products. The Lavender paper works so well with this leafy heart.

Here is the card.

If you notice too, I diecut the heart from the Perennial Lavender Paper too. It gives a nice, subtle colour variation. The stamped leafy heart add something extra to the diecut heart.

How pretty is this set??

It’s such a simple but elegant set. Sadly it is going this Friday. This is one of the Level 2 Sale-A-Bration choices. Meaning you can choose this one with orders over $200 AUD. I think it is a must have and it might even go to my “keep” pile after it is gone.

Be sure to get your order in by Friday to get this or any of the other Sale-A-Bration choices.

If you need to order you can Shop in my Store -> HERE OR contact me directly. I would love to help you.

Happy Crafting,

CORNER IN BLOOM LAVENDER CARD!

February 19, 2025February 20, 2025 Jenny Hayward

I was playing with the Corner in Bloom Stamp Set recently. I was wanting to colour the pretty lavender type flowers. I’m not exactly sure if they are lavender but we will go with that right. 🙂

I noticed in the Sale-A-Bration catalogue how the creator had coloured the sample and I thought I would try that. This is the card.

Here’s a closer look at the card. I used the Night of Navy Light Stampin’ Blends and the Light and Dark Highland Heather Stampin’ Blends.

The card mat was embossed with the Starstruck Embossing Folder.

Both the Stamp Set and the Embossing Folder are available as Sale-A-Bration choices with your $100 order (AUD).

This is the Corner in Bloom Stamp Set.

Sale-A-Bration is not around for much longer so if you want to grab these great products as your bonus gifts then you need to get your order in very soon.

If you are in Australia and need supplies I would love to help you out. You can head to my store -> HERE Or Contact me directly.

Maybe you can use this idea from this card to colour your flowers when you are creating next.

Happy Creating,

Jenny

SWEET SATURDAY WITH HEART SHAPED DIES!

February 15, 2025February 15, 2025 Jenny Hayward

Sweet Saturday. Today it’s a cute little card – with leftovers.

Do you have “bits” leftover from another project. They just sit there for some time taunting you. Pull them out and see what you can create.

For this one I had some bits of the Toadstool Gardens Paper. I had a diecut heart from the Heart Shaped Dies along with the little flower. So it was all just the size to make a Mini Thank You card. This didn’t take long at all and I can send it out soon for a special Thank You to one of my customers.

The paper and the Heart Shaped Dies are available as Sale-A-Bration choices with your orders over the qualifying amount. ($100 AUD for the paper and $200 for the Heart Shaped Stamp Set and the Dies).

The words were diecut with one of the dies in the Mixed Labels Dies available as on Online Exclusives product.

So if you like these you will have to be quick to get them. It is only 2 weeks left for them.

If you need to order any of your crafty supplies and you are in Australia I would love to serve you. You can stop by my store OR Contact me directly. I would be happy to help you.

Happy Weekend,

SUNDAY SUITES – FRIENDS OF THE OCEAN SUITE

February 9, 2025February 9, 2025 Jenny Hayward

Back with Sunday Suites. We have Friends of the Ocean Suite Collection.

The ocean is my favourite place. This suite is different to your typical marine style stamps and dies I think.

The colours in the suite move away from the typical blues you might associate with the ocean. There is the bright pinks and oranges. I think it leans more to the sunrise and sunset colours perhaps?

The Friends of the Ocean Suite Collection includes:

The Ocean Friends Bundle
The Soft Waves Embossing Folder
Friends of the Ocean Designer Series Paper 12″x12″
Sunny Day Iridescent Dots 135 adhesive dots 5mm and 6mm. In Melon Mambo, Pumpkin Pie and Summer Splash

Let’s look closer.

The Ocean Friends Bundle

This is a two-step stamp set making it easy to stamp the outline, stamp the inside image and diecut. You can choose to colour these too if you would like.

The Friends of the Ocean Designer Series Paper.

The colours in the paper are Berry Burst, Calypso Coral, Lemon Lime Twist, Melon Mambo, Pumpkin Pie, Summer Splash.

The paper has the ocean creature images on one side and patterns on the other. So these papers can be used to create projects of other fun types. Great for those bright, cheery Birthday cards.

The Soft Waves Embossing Folder.

The folder measures 6″ x 6-1/4″ (15.2 x 15.9 cm) so it is a large one but that works great to get the wavy impression whether your card is portrait or landscape position.

I particularly love the Soft Waves Embossing Folder. It creates deep impressions to add extra texture. The curvy lines could be used on any project beyond water images.
