SOME THANK YOU GIFTS AND QUICK UPDATES!!

April 8, 2015 Jenny Hayward

The weather has been a little ordinary the last few days BUT that means it is inside days AND that means some creating time!!!! Today I have been busy creating some Thank You gifts for some lovely people who ordered during my recent ‘Celebrate Sale-A-Bration’ event that I ran for my newsletter subscribers. These were fun to put together.

I used the Mini Treat Bag Thinlets dies to embellish the cello gift bags. They were filled with some of the Irresistibly Yours DSP and Sheer Perfection Vellum Sheets. I think they might like these as both of these items were sold out at the end of Sale-A-Bration so at least now they get a little sampler. 🙂

NOW I have some quick Stampin’ Up! Updates for you.

1) Don’t forget this week’s Weekly Deals. If you love your Big Shot then you will love these great discounts this week.

2) The Retirement List will be released on April 21st. That is not long AT ALL. I will add the link here on that date for you to find out what will be leaving us. It’s always sad to say farewell to our favourites but that means that it makes room for some new exciting products!!

3) With the Retirement List out we will say Farewell to the 2013-2015 Incolors. These are the colours that will be leaving us. I am a bit sad about these colours leaving. I have loved every one of them. NOW is the time to stock up on cardstock, ink refills, inkpads etc. Please don’t wait until the retirement list is out as these items are the first to sell out within the first day or 2. Grab them now! Seriously, you don’t want to be disappointed and miss out on your supplies of these colours.

4) I am selling off my Retired stamps and Big Shot Embossing Folders and Dies. Have you checked them out yet?? Check out the page HERE. (Australian Residents Only).

** If you want to place an order for any of the Weekly Deal items or any Catalogue product, then drop me a comment and I will get back to you. OR Head to my Online Store HERE and please use the Hostess Code – 2MFNKUVZ Don’t forget to check out the Clearance Rack while you are there. New items have been added recently.

Thanks for visiting today. I hope you are having a super awesome day whatever you do. If not, I hope you can smile your way through it 🙂 🙂 🙂

SHEER PERFECTION VELLUM!

March 26, 2015 Jenny Hayward

Last post I shared a video from Stampin’ Up! colouring the new ‘Sheer Perfection’ Vellum sheets. Have you checked that video out yet??? I have been playing some more with these sheets. I love the patterns on them.

For this first card I have layered 2 of the sheets together. Underneath is the small dotty sheet with the flower sheet over the top. I layered this on Smoky Slate and the base card is Calypso Coral. The flower is from the set ‘Crazy About You’. I stamped it twice in Calypso Coral and then cut around one of the smaller flowers to layer on top. The greeting is from ‘Teeny Tiny Sentiments’. Honest opinions please – I am really not sure about this card but I thought I would show you anyway. What do you think???

I don’t often use Pear Pizzazz as a colour but I have taken to it recently. For this second card I cut out the centre from a piece creating a window using the Deco Labels Framelits then I adhered a piece of the leaf patterned vellum that that had been coloured with the Pear Pizzazz Marker. This is very easy to do but just be sure to colour ON THE BACK OF THE VELLUM. 😉 The whole piece was then adhered to a Pear Pizzazz card base. I added a few little butterflies “fluttering by” stamped from ‘Papillion Potpourri’. To colour them I picked up some ink from the inkpads with my Aquapainter. Then I wrapped around some of the Whisper White Thick Baker’s Twine underneath the greeting from ‘A Dozen Thoughts’. I was much happier the way THIS one turned out.

Less that one week to go to get your Free Sale-A-Bration Free choices. Just $90 order and you can pick any of the Sale-A-Bration items – and don’t forget the new recent additions to the Sale-A-Bration pickings. So many choices! But please don’t delay because come next Wednesday it is TOO LATE 🙂 HERE is the link to the Catalogues and flyers for you to check out if you need them.

Thanks for visiting me today,

COLOURING SHEER PERFECTION VELLUM!

March 23, 2015 Jenny Hayward

You have probably seen one of the new release product choices for Sale-A-Bration – the Sheer Perfection Vellum. This is so gorgeous. I am going to focus a little on this product this week. If you haven’t seen it yet, here it is.

It is 24 sheets of patterned vellum paper. You receive 2 of each design. There are 12 designs all up and the paper measures 15.2cm x 15.2cm (6″x6″) sheet. Have I said how gorgeous it is already??? It truly is.

You can leave this vellum as it is and layer it on your cards OR you can layer it over another colour cardstock for the colour to show through OR colour it with your Markers.

To show you how easy it is to colour this vellum, Stampin’ Up! have put together a very quick video of 2 cards that are a cinch!

Here is the video.

You can receive a pack of these papers as your Free Sale-A-Bration gift with your $90 order. Now there is only 1 WEEK LEFT OF SALE-A-BRATION so don’t delay. I will show you some more cards using this paper later in the week. Until then, I hope you find some creating time for yourself. 🙂

CELEBRATE YOUR BIG DAY!

March 12, 2015 Jenny Hayward

I was playing around with some Sale-A-Bration products the other day. Here is one of the cards I made.

You could pick out a few Sale-A-Bration choices on this card – The ‘Best Year Ever DSP’, the ribbon from the ‘Best Year Ever Accessory Pack’ and the the stamp set ‘Big Day’. The “Big Day” image was stamped on some Whisper White card in Coastal Cabana and punched the top with the Scallop Tag Topper Punch. I punched the top of a piece of Coastal Cabana card too with the punch and then ran it through the Big Shot with the Decorative Dots Embossing Folder. I tied off some ribbon and Pom Pom trim and then layered it on a piece of the DSP which had been adhered to the Calypso Coral base card. To colour the words I stamped the “Big Day” image onto some Crushed Curry card and cut out just the banner to adhere over the top and then coloured the “CAKE” word with Blender Pens and inkpad. The cake image was simply stamped in black onto Crushed Curry card and punched with the 1 3/8″ circle punch I think it was.

I will show you a close-up. I added some Dazzling Diamonds to make it sparkle. 🙂

Sale-A-Bration is quickly flying by. Only a couple of weeks left. Have you picked up your free Sale-A-Bration product yet with your $90 order? If you haven’t, you better hurry. I don’t want you missing out on Freebies!! You can shop online (link is in the right hand column) OR drop me an email with your order. I am happy to send it anywhere in Australia.

Thanks for stopping by today. I always love you visiting. 🙂

FACETED BOX FOR THE MENFOLK!!

March 6, 2015March 6, 2015 Jenny Hayward

A few weeks ago I saw a cute Faceted box on a Facebook group I am on. Of course, one must have a go at one of these! I thought I would show you my version. Then I will show you where to go to make your own.

I thought for this it would be good to make a male version.

I have used Night of Navy and Crumb Cake cardstock and used a new stamp set from the Occasions Catalogue ‘Guy Greetings’. This is a good one to tuck some chocolates in for the males in your family. They are always the ones that are hard to make for aren’t they!

What do you think?? I thought at first it would be really hard to make with all those angled sides, but it was really easy once you got the scoring and cutting right.

Do you want to make your own?? My lovely friend Sam created this box {waving HI SAM] 🙂 Here is the You tube link for you to make it. Really it is not hard so don’t be scared off by all those angled sides.

Now the funny thing after Sam posted this tutorial things went a little crazy and little Faceted boxes were streaming onto our group page. So fun to see all the versions. You can check them out on Sam’s page. She posted them to show how crazy things were. HERE THEY ARE!

So now go and check the Youtube video out and make your own version. Why not send me a photo of your version and I can share it with Sam. 🙂

Happy Stamping,

Jenny

PAINTED BLOOMS MINI TREAT BAG!

March 2, 2015 Jenny Hayward

I am sure you have seen the little treat bags around the internet made with the Mini Treat Bag Thinlets. Now I will be honest, I wasn’t going to get this framelite set. I can make up little bags myself- can’t I??? But I saw lots of cute versions and realised you get so many cute little “bits”. How cool! So OK, I had to get it 🙂

Here is my cute little bag I made a couple of weeks ago. I made a cute envelope using the bag die from the gorgeous Painted Blooms DSP. This is such BEAUTIFUL paper. Have you got it yet? I made a tag to fit inside it. The sentiment used here is from the Sale-A-Bration set ‘Simply Wonderful’. I coloured the flower from the set using the Markers. Wouldn’t this be lovely to give to someone special! I love that Blackberry Bliss colour.

Now this die set is not just limited to little gift bags. You can enlarge it and make larger bags or make gift boxes. I have played around a little doing this so I will have to show you soon.

Here is the Thinlet set for you to see all the “bits”.
