I’m not a baker. And really not that great a cook. I will admit it. But I might be able to handle this one.
The Homemade Treats Bundle is a cute one. It has the Dies to cut little gingerbread men, and candy canes and other baking goodies, even a baking tray. How fun!
This would make great cards but how great would this be to dress up some cookies to give at Christmas. In my case maybe I can dress up some store bought cookies. 🙂 I will stick to making the cards and tags.
This is the Homemade Treats Bundle.
Even fun little sentiments for your baked goodies.
The card is cute but dress up some cookies too.
You can see the Homemade Treats Bundle in my store -> HERE.
If you need this one for your baked goodies or for cards for a wannabe cook (raising my hand), then you can grab it there OR contact me.
We had our Branching Out Class last week. We made 3 different cards with this Bundle. It is so diverse and I will show you the cards over time but this is one of them.
We embossed the Mossy Meadow Card Mat with the Peaceful Greenery Embossing Folder. Then diecut the leaf stems and the pinecones.
While I was sitting in the class I assembled one of the cards and decided to flip the embossed Card Mat. It gives a different impression but still looks ok I think.
What do you think? I don’t think there is a right or wrong with this folder. It just gives a different impression for your project.
If you are a Wollongong local I would love to see you at our classes. They have a lot of fun. I usually advertise them here on my blog or on my website or Facebook. If you still can’t find them contact me. It would be great to see you.
Hope you get some creative time in soon,
Jenny

You might have heard the Stampin’ Up! packaging for the stamps and dies are changing. I have just received my first order with the new packaging so I thought I would put together a review so you can see it.
The video is on my Youtube now or you can see it below.
I would love to hear your thoughts and especially how you will store your stamps and dies now.
On a side note: If you prefer the clear DVD cases for your stamps you are able to purchase additional cases to convert your stamps. Or you can purchase additional clear envelopes to store them that way (starting in November).
Adding this Thumb Image below so you can PIN it to come back to.
Happy Crafting,

I made this weeks ago but just remembering to share with you now.
This one is with the Rustic Centerpiece Stamp Set. It’s a set with images that can be used for different occasions through the year.
I like the rustic deer and tree on this one. I coloured it with the Watercolor Pencils. I find them easier to control rather than the Stampin’ Blends or Watercolouring especially when there are finer details.
The sentiment is from the Ornamental Christmas Stamp Set. The paper is with the Nests of Winter Designer Series Paper. It works well for Christmas too.
I realised I haven’t shared the other cards I have made with this set too. I shared them on my Facebook but missed it here. SO… I will be back soon with those projects.
Crafting time is a little sparse at the moment but I hope to be back soon with some more creating. Especially as we start getting in to the busy Christmas season.
Happy Crafting,
Jenny

Sunday Suites with the Traditions of Christmas Suite. If you love the classic red and greens for Christmas and the Holly and Poinsettias then you will love this.
The Traditions of Christmas SuiteCollection includes:
Traditional Labels Bundle
Christmas Greenery Bundle
Traditions of Christmas Specialty Designer Series Paper
Real Red 1/2″ (1.3cm) Shiny Ribbon 10 Yards (9.1m)
Traditional Sparkling Sequins 240 adhesive-backed pieces 60mm each of 4 colours. 4mm, 5mm, 6mm.
The Traditional Labels Bundle contains individual sentiments that can be used together or by themselves and not just for Christmas so it is a versatile one. But I do like the Dies set with this one with the different shape dies.
The Christmas Greenery Bundle contains the poinsettia and greenery stamps and has coordinating dies to diecut the images plus a number of different shaped leaves to create Christmas floral arrangements.
The Traditions of Christmas Specialty Paper has touches of Gold through it which is really striking. It has the classic Christmas flowers and leaves like the Poinsettias and Holly. The paper is 12″x12″ with colours of Cherry Cobbler, gold, Old Olive, Pool Party, Real Red, Secret Sea.
The Traditional Wreath Embossing Folder. Note this Embossing Folder is very large. It is 6″ x 6-1/4″ (15.2 x 15.9 cm). So bigger than your standard Card Size you would just have a touch of texture on it. It is pretty though with lots of detail.
The Real Red Shiny Ribbon is very shimmery which really adds a delicate, soft touch to cards and gift packaging. In addition there is the Traditional Sparkling Sequins.
Here are some samples with these gorgeous products.
Are you a Classic Red and Green with the traditional flowers and foliage. This will be for you. See it more -> HERE.

I couldn’t resist. I recently got the Festive Friends Bundle. They are cute characters in this one BUT for our Hot Christmas time in Australia with many heading to the beach I couldn’t help but make the snowman a Sandman.
I remember so many times at the beach when I was young creating big mounds of sand and decorating it with seaweed for hair and added sticks and shells. And at Christmas time you did add a Santa Hat. Such fun memories.
So the Festive Friends snowman became a Sandman. Not too many shells or seaweed on this one but still all dressed up for Christmas.
The Sandman was coloured with the Stampin’ Blends and the shells were from the Notes and Totes Dies set. The paper worked well with it. This was from the Peaceful Garden Designer Series Paper pack.
I had a lot of fun colouring this character. I have created with the other characters too so I will get back to you soon on those ones.
This is the Festive Friends Bundle. It has some fun little additional elements too with the trees and snowflakes and a tag shape. See it more -> HERE.

I have been playing a lot with the Sunflower 3D Embossing Folder and experimenting with the Two-Tone cardstock. So I put them together.
Here are 2 cards that I created. Some nice sunshine-y yellow to brighten your day.
For this one below I cut a piece of the Daffodil Delight Two-Tone Cardstock just slightly smaller than the front of the card. Then I cut the piece in half and flipped one half. I put the pieces together in the Embossing Folder and embossed them. I lightly sanded the embossed cardstock to reveal the white. I adhered them to the front of a white Card Base and added a simple sentiment.
We made this card recently in my local class playing with the Two-Tone Cardstock. If you are a Wollongong local I would love you to join in our classes each month. Contact me to find out more about them.
On this one below I cut a piece of the Two-Tone Daffodil Delight and embossed that. I lightly sanded the piece and added it to a white card Base. The sentiment heat embossed in white on black card and the Granny Apple Green leaf gives a ‘POP’ to the card.
You could do this in many other colours too. Hope you get to try it out.
Happy Crafting,
Jenny
