LET’S CATCH UP – THINLETS AND AN ENVELOPE PUNCH BOARD!

Jenny Hayward

I am a little behind with my blogging lately.  Life is busy and with Josh studying on the computer a lot at the moment with the HSC I have had little access to the computer. BUT I am here now.  Just squeezing in a little time while he is still in bed!

By now you would have known about the wonderful new products released just this past week.  I thought I would show you what I have been doing with them.

Firstly, have you seen the new Thinlets Card dies??? These make fun, interactive cards in no time.  Check them out.

These come in the Labels shape or  the circle and come with lots of other fun bits to add to your cards.  They are $55.95.  I had a chance to play with Leonie’s circle thinlets the other day as I am still waiting on mine to arrive.  (Thank you Leonie). Here is a fun, birthday card to create.

I have used the set ‘Sketched Birthday’ and the paper is from ‘Birthday Basics’.  This is really a great pack of paper.  I think it gets lost in the catalogue.  Leonie kindly gave me a piece.  (Thanks again Leonie!!!).  You are a star 🙂

I think it was the 1 3/4″ circle punch I used to punch the circle in Summer Starfruit card and the Whisper White scallop circle is the 1 3/4″ scallop circle.  I added a little bling to this too.

Now on to the Envelope Punch Board.  I have been having so much fun with this new little gadget. You MUST have one of these.  Not only does it cut up to 66 different size envelopes BUT there are so many other fun boxes and projects you can do with it PLUS it has a corner rounder punch on it if you need one for any of your projects.

Here are some little treat pouches I have been making with them.

P1100493

Made with the ‘Sweater Weather DSP’ and ‘Label Love’ stamp set.  I added a little Burlap Ribbon. Add a little treat and this might be a good one for the men in your life???

How about a Christmas one with the ‘Season of Style’ DSP.

P1100492

The label is from ‘Chalk Talk’ and stamped in Gumball Green.  The ornament is one from the ‘Best of Christmas’ sets and stamped in Cherry Cobbler.  You could add ribbon and hang these in the Christmas tree with a special Christmas treat.  These are the right size to hold a Gift card.  If you want to make one you can use the Gift card size shown on the Envelope Punch Board.  The original idea came from Angie over at Chic N Scratch here.

Here is a little sneak of another project I created using the Envelope Punch Board.  If you are on my Facebook Business page you would have already seen it.  (BTW: You can click on the link in the right hand column and ‘LIKE’ my page to see my projects I show there).  I will show you the rest of this project in the new few days.

So I hope you grab yourself the Thinlets Cards Dies AND the Envelope Punch Board.  I can tell you they are essential 😉

Have a good day however you spend it.

‘MERRY’ CHRISTMAS EXPRESSIONS!

Jenny Hayward

I was playing around with the Expressions Thinlets the other week and created 2 cards.   This first one was CASED from Kris McIntosh.  You can see her original card here.   I just changed the colours on this to blue where she used red.

P1090832

I have used the new Stylish Stripes Embossing Folder too.  I love these colours this Christmas.  I think I have said that before today!!

For this next one I am seeking your help.  I am really not happy with this.

P1090908

I have used the lovely Designer Series Paper ‘Season of Syle’ and layered this on Old Olive and then Cherry Cobbler.  I used a strip of the new Burlap Ribbon seen in the Holiday Catalogue.  I cut the Merry from Gold Foil Sheets in the Holiday Catalogue.  That’s all OK BUT it is missing something!  I tried adding some small ornaments and played around for a bit with other things.  What do you think???  Is it missing something?  What should I add?  I would love to know your thoughts.  I will try some of your suggestions and post an updated version soon.

Thanks for stopping by.  I love your visits.

School Holidays have finished now and it is back to school tomorrow.  I can’t believe one more term left of school for the year and one more week before the HSC for Josh.  YIKES!

Take care and visit again soon,

CHRISTMAS SIDE SPRING CARD

Jenny Hayward

I have had the new Stampin’ Up! Best of Christmas stamps for a couple of weeks now and only yesterday managed to get some ink on them.  Here is a side-spring card for you.  I was inspired by a swap card I received from convention using this fold and thought I would use this fold to make a different Christmas card.  You can find a tutorial to make these on Splitcoaststampers here.  They are quite easy to do once you work out the scoring and folding.

Here is the card.

P1100196

I stamped the santa on watercolour paper and coloured him using the Blender pen and inkpads.  I used Cherry Cobbler for his hat and Blushing Bride for his face.  The little holly on his hat was coloured with Old Olive.  I stamped him on the angle of the card so it would sit right when it was sitting up.  I added a little sponging, some pearls and some burlap twine.  The greeting is from the More Merry Messages.

Why not head over to Splitcoaststampers and make yourself up one of these.  They are very cute.

Thanks for stopping by today.  I hope all is well in your part of the world.

BABY STARS!!

Jenny Hayward

I can finally get around to showing these cards I made a few weeks ago.  I needed to make 2 baby girl cards.  One for my niece and one for a friend of Glenn’s.  So I made 2 of the same.  I pulled out my new set ‘Simply Stars’.  I even opened up Blushing Bride for the first time!!!

P1090850

I stamped the stars over the Whisper White card using Blushing Bride and Smoky Slate. I then ran it through the Big Shot with the Square Lattice Embossing Folder.  This was layered on a Blushing Bride card base.  The little handprints and the sentiment are from the set ‘Baby Prints’.  The grey button is not Stampin’ Up! I found that in my button collection and it matched perfectly.  The little Pink Button is a retired Stampin’ Up! one (I think!).

Now that I have finished them I really need to send them before the babies are One!!! LOL

It’s a lovely sunny Spring day here.  School Holidays have started so who knows what we will get up to today.  Enjoy your day,

Jenny
