It’s come to that time when we start saying Good-Bye to our favourites. The Retiring List is now out. It’s your Last Chance to get them.
I have all the details below. I know I’m sad to be saying Good-Bye to some. But it makes space for other great products to come.
**Firstly, when you check the list don’t be alarmed at the size of it. Some items are being reconfigured such as the stamp set cases. New sets will now come with a printed image on the outside as well as the inside back cover and the stamp sets won’t have images on the clear sheets the stamps are stuck to.Â
**Â Some bundles as in stamps/dies or stamps/punches are listed as retiring but only as a bundle. They may still be available individually in the next catalogue but buying them now as a bundle saves 10%.
See them all in my Store to see all the items shown -> HERE.
These items are all WHILE SUPPLIES LAST. So be quick! Some have sold out already.
Here are just some of my favourites.
Under My Umbrella $28
Umbrella Punch (reduced to $12.40 from $31)
Greenery Designer Series Paper (all the papers are retiring. Some are reduced!)
Classic Label Punch (This punch is so useful to punch out your sentiments).
To a Wild Rose. (I love this set!) Look at this reduced to $18 from $45
Wild Rose Dies (Reduced to $35.40 from $59) They co-ordinate with the To a Wild Rose stamp set
Stamparatus Bag (This is crazily reduced to $12.50 from $50!)Â It’s a handy bag for many craft supplies).
Don’t forget with orders this month you can choose a stamp set or pack of paper from my stash with your orders over $90. Only while stock is available.
You have over $170 on your list??
You know the best value is to join the family. You will get $235 for your $169. Stay as long as you like. Email me for more info. at jghayward@yahoo.com or Phone me on 0439 844574.
The other day I decided to play just because. No creating for classes, blog posts, Youtube, Challenge cards, Thank You cards. I just decided to pull out a set to create. I very rarely do that. (Maybe I should do it more too).
It was grey and rainy here and has been for some time. By looking at the weather it’s going to be raining for some time still. That doesn’t matter when you can just pull out card and ink and play.
I grabbed the Under My Umbrella stamp set. Maybe because it was raining. Here is the card. I was surprised it didn’t take long to put together.
The images were coloured with the Stampin’ Blends.
You can find the Under My Umbrella stamp set in my store -> HERE. Don’t forget the Umbrella Punch too. That makes cutting the umbrellas out so easy. You do need to fussy cut the boots.

Have a happy day. If it’s raining where you are keep safe and dry.
Last week on my Private Facebook group I shared a sketch and encouraged others to use the sketch to create a card. Of course, I had to create a card also. I love using sketches. They are a great spring-board to your creating.
This is the sketch. This is from the Freshly Made Sketches.
This is the card I created. I have used the gorgeous Butterfly Bijou Designer Series Paper. Of course you have seen it by now right. 🙂 So lovely.
For the shape on the sketch you can use any shape but I chose the butterfly as I have been creating with the Butterfly Brilliance products this past 2 weeks.
The sentiment is from the Many Messages set. Inside you can add another sentiment whether it is a Birthday or Thinking of You or whatever occasion. I punched the ends with the Banners Pick A Punch.
Maybe you can use this sketch in your next project. If you like, share it with me on my email at jghayward@yahoo.com I would love to see. It’s always fun to see other people’s interpretation.
It will be a mix of dragonflies and butterflies this week. Some of these dragonflies cards I created months ago but now just getting to show you.
This card with the Dragonfly Garden Stamps and Punches was made as part of the Stampin’ Up! Virtual OnTour event back in November. You have probably seen versions of it in your blog travels.
This card uses strips of the Dandy Garden Designer Series Paper. It’s a fun layout I think. I really want to try this again. (…adds it to my ever-growing list of cards to do!)
It’s so easy with the Dragonfly Punch in this bundle to just stamp and punch out these dragonflies.
In Australia?You can find these Dragonflies in my store -> HERE.
Or you can contact me directly on 0439 844574.
Will it be dragonflies or butterflies next post?? Be sure to come and check it out.
It’s Wednesday’s WOW! #119. Today let’s have a close look at this newButterfly Brilliance release. You might have seen these products around but I thought we would check out some of the particular unique features of it.
The new Butterfly Brilliance is a new collection of products released early. You might say you have enough butterflies …but really do you have such butterflies as pretty as these? And that paper! That on it’s own is just so gorgeous.
While the Butterfly Brilliance Bundle (stamps and dies) you will see in the new catalogue the gorgeous papers won’t be available. They are limited release. 😦 That’s sad as they are so pretty and the dies cut out some of the butterflies on this paper.Â
What do you do if you want all the butterflies? The solution is the Butterfly Brilliance Collection.$125 AUD Only available while supplies last.
The Butterfly Brilliance Collection includes: – * Butterfly Brilliance Cling Stamp Set – * Brilliant Wings Dies – Butterfly Bijou 6″ x 6″ (15.2 x 15.2) Designer Series Paper – Natural Touch Specialty Paper
*The stamp set and Dies are available as a Bundle.
The Butterfly Bijou Designer Series Paper is available in 6″x6″ papers and there are 8 sheets of 6 different designs. Oh so beautiful! One side has the butterfly prints and the other has a more plain pattern OR … a beautiful watercolour wash.
And the colours! They are Basic Black, Bermuda Bay, Blushing Bride, Calypso Coral, Just Jade, Magenta Madness, Mango Melody, Mint Macaron, Misty Moonlight, Poppy Parade, So Saffron. So pretty together.
But check this out! The Brilliant Wings Die cuts the butterflies on some of the Butterfly Bijou DSP. No fussy cutting these beauties.
The other paper in this collection is the Natural Touch Specialty Paper. The pale woodgrain is versatile enough for any project and any time of year and will give a “textured” effect. Emboss it, use it with dies and you can even colour it with inks. There are only available while supplies last too.
You receive 2 sheets at 12″x12″ size. (30.5cm x 30.5cm). They both have a different pattern.
Now let’s talk a bit more about the Butterfly Brilliance Bundle.
BUTTERFLY BRILLIANCE CLING STAMP SET The images are so detailed.
Did you know that these butterflies are modelled after butterfly species from around the world?? Including the Clouded Yellow (Europe), Black Veined White (Europe & Asia), Coppers (New Zealand), Swallowtail (North America), Blue Copper (North America), and Painted Lady (Australia). How cool!
The butterflies are a single stamp so you can create a background or diecut them individually. You will need a Block F to use them. I would suggest using the Stamparatus to stamp them as it is so big but also if it doesn’t stamp as well as you would like it is very easy to restamp.
BRILLIANT WINGS DIES I mentioned above how you can diecut the paper. These dies cut the stamped butterflies also so you have individual butterflies. Why not layer them for a fun effect!
You might wonder what those funny little pieces in the dies do. Check them out.
They emboss the card or diecut a “brick” effect or a “splatter”.
So now you just want to go grab them right??

It’s been a bit hot here recently. What better way for this Sunday Suites by looking at the Ice Cream Corner Suite. Just looking at these make you feel nice and cool right? Although I should say for my readers in the Northern Hemisphere Ice Cream is not what you would be feeling like at the moment. I have heard it’s pretty cold and snowy there. Hope you can enjoy these fresh and cool products anyway.

The Ice Cream Corner Suite Collection includes: * Sweet Ice Cream Photopolymer Stamp Set * Ice Cream Cone Builder Punch * Blackberry Bliss 3/8″ Sheer Ribbon * Ice Cream Corner Designer Series Paper * Ice Cream Corner Sprinkles
What about the Sweet Ice Cream Bundle which has the stamp set and the fun Ice Cream Builder Punch.
By the way can you see a bear’s head in the ice cream on the punch?? I have seen some cute cards with that by adding some fun googly eyes. Just another way to use this punch.
The Ice Cream Corner Designer Series Paper. What gorgeous colours in it. The colours are – Bermuda Bay, Blackberry Bliss, Bumblebee, Cinnamon Cider, Old Olive, Petal Pink, Pool Party, Purple Posy, So Saffron, Soft Sea Foam, Terracotta Tile.
Well we can’t show the products without showing some cute samples. These are created by Stampin’ Up! Artists. Don’t forget the Ice Cream Corner Sprinkles to make fun shaker cards.

Friday Flicks.I have a fun card for you in today’s video. This video is a replay from my Facebook Live on Wednesday. I created a Pop Out Swing Card with the Hey Birthday Chick Bundle. I have made a few of these over the years and I love making them. It has been a while so thought I would pull it out again and freshen it up.
Here is the card for you first.
Check it out on the video. (If you are receiving this via email then the video may not show. Head to the blog post by clicking on the title above or head to Youtube).
It is now also uploaded to Youtube -> HERE. (Have you subscribed to my Youtube channel yet. I’m shooting for 200 subscribers by the end of the month so head on over there) 🙂
MAKE YOUR OWN POP OUT SWING CARD
The video will show you the details. I will give you general details and measurements below.
Base card is a standard size card. Designer Series paper is 4mm (1/8″) smaller. I used the Balmy Blue pattern in the Subtles pack New demonstrators receive free in Sale-A-Bration. (They will receive a pack from each Colour Collection. 200 6″x6″ in total valued at $100)
I used the Layering Squares Dies for the window cut-out. You can use a circle or rectangle also if you wish.
The inside White card measures. 15.2cm x 12.8cm (6″ x 5″). Score at 5cm and 10cm. (2″ and 4″). Adhere to the inside of the card with the white card in the folded position. ONLY place adhesive on the back of the right hand section. Centre it inside the card to the right and at the top and bottom. Close up the card and adhere the square panel in through the window to adhere to the white bi-folded card. Only place adhesive on the back on the right hand section.
