BEST DRESSED – HELLO FABULOUS!

Last November I presented with the Best Dressed Suite at the Onstage event in Sydney.  I have lots of projects with this bundle and I can’t wait to share them with you now.  So over the next few days and week you will see some cute samples.

Today’s card was not one from my presentation but was a sample I created for the display.

Hello Fabulous! Isn’t that a great sentiment?? 🙂

I just used some of the gorgeous Best Dressed Designer Series Paper.  There are some great label dies in the All Dressed Up dies.  I layered them together.  You know what I love about these dies?? They are stitched!! YAY!

If you look closely the Pretty Peacock strips under the paper is using the Stitched strip die.  It just shows a little edge of stitching peering out.  It’s adds another dimension to your card.  Finish the card off with some loops of the Mint Macaron Sheer Linen Ribbon under the sentiment labels.

The Best Dressed Suite is available now in store.  You can grab the Dressed To Impress Bundle or grab the whole suite. 🙂  See them -> HERE.

Stop back here for more projects with this suite.  It’s such a fun one.

SOME RAK CARDS FROM SPECIAL FRIENDS!

I received some lovely RAK cards in October for World Cardmaking Day and only now able to share them with you all with the busyness of Onstage and Christmas.  A RAK card is a Random Act of Kindness.  Being papercrafters we like to send out cards sometimes for no reason.  It’s always so nice receiving one rather than the bills that come in the mail.

These RAK cards are from lovely crafters in a small Facebook group I am in where we can cheer each other on and help each other out.  It’s a great little group.  It was nice to receive a card from them.

I am not going to give you the details on the cards but perhaps go and visit their blogs and give them some blog love. 🙂

This first one is from Alison. Visit Alison’s Facebook Business page -> HERE.

 

From Jo.  Check all that Copper heat embossing.  So shiny.  Visit Jo -> HERE.

A card from Melinda. Go and check out Melinda’s Blog -> HERE.

From Sue.  Visit Sue’s Blog -> HERE.

Aren’t they lovely?? They certainly brought a smile to my face when I received them.

I hope you are having a lovely day in your corner of the world.  I know it’s crazy with Christmas happening but I hope you can send a RAK card to someone among your Christmas mail-outs to bring a smile to that person’s face.  Sometimes Christmas is a hard time and it’s nice to have a little cheering up.

Thanks for visiting,

Jenny

To see them better check out this video about them.  You have to have a close look at the papers.

Below is the Christmas Rose Bundle with the gorgeous Christmas Rose stamp set and the Rose Dies. $106  The Rose stamp would work make a lovely birthday card or even a gorgeous Wedding card.

NATURE’S BEAUTY FOR WORLD CARDMAKING DAY 2019!

This weekend is World Cardmaking Day. A great day to celebrate what we love – to create cards and sharing them.

This weekend I am having a special class to celebrate World Cardmaking Day.  It is focusing specifically on the Nature’s Beauty stamp set. We are getting together not just to make cards but to raise money for Mental Health.  I will show you one of the cards we will be making but also tell you how you can help me raise money for Mental Health too, even it you can’t make the class. 

For this card I stamped the fox in Memento Black and coloured them with the Stampin’ Blends; Calypso Coral and Mint Macaron.  The white card was cut with the Stitched Rectangles Dies and trimmed off a little at the top to straighten it off.  The strip of paper is from the Mosaic Mood Specialty Designer Series Paper.  On top of that you wrap around some Linen Thread.

The trees were stamped several times in Mint Macaron on the card mat with some stamped snow drops along the top of the card.

I am so looking forward to this fun class this weekend.  BUT if you can’t make it you can support Mental Health too.  Let me tell you how.

  • Order the Nature’s Beauty stamp set, Stampin’ Up! will donate $4.25 to local Mental Health Organisations.
  • Place any order between October 3rd and October 6th and I will donate 20% commission to Headspace.

This is for Australian residents only sorry.

Here is the Nature’s Beauty Stamp set if you haven’t noticed it. It is tucked away on the very last page of the Holiday Catalogue. It is $37 AUD.

HOW TO ORDER:

Order directly to me by emailing or phoning me.

OR order Online -> HERE. Please use the Host Code: 3JU96AZ

Any order receives a small gift to say Thanks.  Orders over $78 will receive the Tutorial Bundle of 12 projects from a group of Demonstrators from around the world that I am a part of.

I appreciate your support. Thank You.

Have a great weekend and I hope that you get to make a card yourself this weekend.

MAGNOLIA HALF-FOLD CARD!

Today I have a Magnolia Card for you.  I shared a card recently with the Magnolia Blooms set.  This is another card I made at the time.

The Magnolia flower was coloured with the Petal Pink and the Mossy Meadow Stampin’ Blends.

This is a Half-Fold Card.  The front of the card base is cut in half. I used a strip of the Magnolia Lane Designer Series Paper down the left hand edge of the card base.

There is a smaller panel that is placed off the edge of the front flap with the magnolia image.  It’s simple but adds another dimension to your card.  See the inside below.

I should have coloured the inside leaves.  I forgot about them.

 

I’m really liking this Magnolia Blooms set.  Why?

  • It’s simple to use.
  • It’s easy to colour. The simple lines and shading makes it easy to follow when colouring to get the depth of colour on it.
  • It’s great for a Beginner stamper starting out in stamping but great for the Avid stamper who can step it up with other products they have.
  • It has great sentiments for any occasion.  I love the font too.
  • It’s affordable.  $24 AUD people! How great is that.

So have you got this set?? Really.  It’s one of THE most affordable sets in the catalogue.  You won’t find it in the Annual Catalogue.  It is in the Experience Creativity brochure.

Available to order in my store now -> HERE.

SUNDAY SUITES – TOILE TIDINGS!

Today’s Sunday Suite is the Toile Tidings Suite in the Holiday Catalogue.  Lots of lovely products in this suite and all in the traditional red and green for Christmas.  Let’s check it out.

The Toile Tidings Suite Bundle. One Item code and it makes it easier than picking each item. $252 AUD It seems a lot but look at all you get.

The Toile Christmas Bundle.  I have to say I wasn’t sure about the Cardinal.  It is very popular in the US and perhaps in other parts but we don’t have them in Australia.  They are apparently a very symbolic bird though.  Which is interesting.

There is also another stamp and die bundle.  The Tidings All Around Bundle. I love that wreath.  Isn’t it gorgeous?

Toile Tidings Designer Series Paper in the traditional red and green – Garden Green and Real Red.

In addition to the 12″x 12″ paper there is the Toile Tidings Gift Wrap.  This is 4 sheets in total.  2 Sheets each of 2 designs.  Each sheet is 24″ x 36″ or 61cm x 91cm.  Great for those larger gifts.

I have to say I love these Toile Tidings Glitter Enamel Dots.  So sparkly!

Let’s see some more projects.

Do you like the Toile Tidings Suite?  Do you have Cardinals in your area?  It would be interesting to see.

The Toile Tidings Suite is available now in my store -> HERE.  When ordering please use the Host Code: 3JU96AZN

Receive the Tutorial Bundle free of 12 projects with your qualifying orders.  (Projects not including the Toile Tidings Suite)
