CARD IN A BOX FOR A 2 YEAR OLD!

April 3, 2016April 3, 2016 Jenny Hayward

I can finally share this card with you. I was so excited to finish this card but it had to wait. It’s kinda cute. 🙂

I was asked by a friend to make a special card for her 2 year old. Things she liked was pink, purple and orange – and fish! How to incorporate all that?? I decided to go with the ‘Balloon Builders’ stamp set.

So, here it is for you. I have a few different angles for you.

The “Hugs and Kisses” sentiment is from the ‘Party Pants’ Sale-A-Bration set. The ideas for the different balloon animals were from Pinterest. I had to incorporate a couple of fish in there somewhere. 😉 The Designer Series Paper is from ‘It’s My Party’ paper stack.

And the back gives a place to write on.

What do you think? This was a labour of love and I had so much fun creating and it was very well received.

Thanks for visiting me.

HONEYCOMB HAPPINESS CHICK!

March 30, 2016March 30, 2016 Jenny Hayward

Tomorrow is the last day of Sale-A-Bration for the year! Do you think this time has flown by too? Crazy! I am squeezing in a couple of last minute Sale-A-Bration cards with you.

I have loved colouring this little chick from ‘Honeycomb Happiness’. Isn’t his (or her) face sweet? This card I made a few weeks ago to send out to a few customers I haven’t heard from in a while. The idea came from Pinterest. I changed the size to make it a standard size card.

I have coloured the chick with the Hello Honey inkpad and aquapainter. I love how he is peeking out from the circle. I cut 2 circles in Calypso Coral card and created a window frame for him. I have layered it on the Sale-A-Bration paper ‘Wildfower Fields’ and layered this to a Calypso Coral card mat and then a Thick Whisper White cared base. The card was finished off with some punched flowers using the Itty Bitty Accents Punch Pack and some Rhinestone bling.

This next card was made for a friend’s daughter who is not well. I just thought I would cheer her up. This card was also cased from Pinterest.

The chick is once again painted with the Inkpad (Daffodil Delight) and aquapainter. I cut it out and raised it up off the card with dimensionals. I stamped the balloon on the card and then stamped it again separately and raised it up. The Designer Series Paper is from the ‘It’s My Party’ paper stack and matted on Black and then on the card base of Calypso Coral. You can’t see it but I did add some Wink of Stella sparkle on the balloon.

Don’t forget to get your last minute Sale-A-Bration orders in. I am taking orders until 8pm tomorrow night or you can order online at my store HERE.

MORE EASTER BAGS AND TREATS!

March 25, 2016March 25, 2016 Jenny Hayward

Happy Easter to you all. I hope that the weekend will be a great one with those you love and that you remember the greatest act of Love we have been given as we celebrate this time.

Last post I shared some cute Easter baskets. I thought I would share another Easter bag as well as some Easter tags. It’s not too late to whip these up right! This bag and the basket from last post plus these 2 tags are ones we made at my Easter class last week.

This little treat bag was inspired by a project I found on Pinterest but you can find the tutorial HERE. It’s very easy to make. For mine I decorated it with the chick from ‘Honeycomb Happiness’. This is such a great image for Easter don’t you think? I stamped it on Shimmery White and coloured it with the Crushed Curry inkpad and the aquapainter. I cut the image with the Circles Framelits and layered it on a Crushed Curry card cut with the ‘Deco Labels’ Framelits. The strip of DSP is from the ‘It’s My Party’ Paper Stack. I decided to stamp the greeting on Vellum in Black Stazon so it didn’t cover the chick too much. The greeting is from the ‘Easter Lamb’ stamp. On the bag I punched the corners of the card with the Curvy Corner Trio Punch and added a slit with the punch too. I embossed the card with the Decorative Dots Embossing Folder too. Cute!

Inside there is a separate little box that you adhere to the inside. It is so easy.

We made a similar tag. This time I cut some of the DSP with the Deco Labels Framelits and I cut one with Whisper White as well to adhere together for added strength and also to have white card to write on the back.

I added a White Cotton Ribbon bow and some White Baker’s Twine to hang from it.

This next tag we made was using the Easter Lamb stamp. So cute. The lamb was stamped on Sahara Sand and coloured with the White Gel Pen after it was cut with the Circles Framelits. I cut some DSP from the Bohemian DSP with the ‘Lots of Labels’ Framelits and also a larger one from Bermuda Bay. I tied through some Bermuda Bay Baker’s Twine. A little flower was added punched in Crushed Curry with the ‘Itty Bitty Accents’ Punch Pack. The greeting is from ‘Teeny Tiny Sentiments’ and I cut this one with the Bitty Banners Framelits.

Now you can whip these up in no time – or file them away for next year 😉

Have a lovely Easter time. Visit again soon,

Jenny

SOMETHING FOR BABY!

March 21, 2016March 21, 2016 Jenny Hayward

I can finally show you this card. A friend who is also one of my downlines had a baby boy back in January. I have only got to see her recently so now I can show you the card.

I found the idea for the window card on Pinterest but I changed it around and made it larger into a standard size card. The window was cut with the Square Framelits. The Designer Series Paper was the ‘Perfectly Artistic’ Sale-A-Bration paper which is now no longer available. Well it was when I made the card 😉

The cute little suit is from ‘Something For Baby’. It is so nice to have the matching framelits too. No cutting!! The greeting is from ‘A Dozen Thoughts’, stamped and then punched with the Oval Punch. I cut a red banner using the ‘Itty Bitty Framelits’. I cut the banner in half and adhered this to the back of the oval to make it larger. The red gives it a “POP” I think. I added the red Candy Dot to the bib. I am still unsure, maybe it should have been a Tempting Turquoise one?? Sometimes you second guess yourself.

Here is the inside.

I added a piece of Whisper White to the bottom inside. I stamped the duck in the Tempting Turquoise too. The greeting is from Sale-A-Bration set ‘Sky is the Limit’ which is no longer available either. 😦 I stamped it and then cut the greeting with the ‘Project Life Cards and Labels Framelits’

I think it has the cute factor. What do you reckon?? 🙂

Thanks for visiting today.

Have a great day. The weather is turning chilly now. I am sad that Summer is leaving us but it is a relief to have cooler nights to sleep better.

PARTY PANTS 21ST!

March 16, 2016March 16, 2016 Jenny Hayward

I needed to make a 21st card for Josh to give to a friend. It needed to be quick. I didn’t have a lot of time. I had just received the Large Numbers Framelits so I thought this might be just the thing. Plus I received the Sale-A-Bration ‘Party Pants’ set. I love these little sentiments in this set.

Here is the card for you.

I have used some of ‘It’s My Party’ Paper Stack. I have used so much of these papers. There is 48 12″x12″ sheets in the pack. Not just some bright party type papers but some neutral Sahara Sand and black and white sheets. Very versatile I think. 🙂

I cut the 21 from the black DSP piece and then added a piece of Real Red card behind it. I matted it all on some Whisper White and then a Black card base. The sentiment from ‘Party Pants’ is cut from the ‘Tags and Labels’ Framelits and matted on Real Red card frame. I looped up some Silver Cord to add behind the sentiment. Josh thought it was cool as it looked like barbed wire!!! 🙂

So a quick masculine 21st card was made in record time!

Thanks for visiting today.

WHY I LOVE SHARING STAMPING??

March 10, 2016March 10, 2016 Jenny Hayward

Three posts in one day. What is happening! Today I have been feeling a little reflective and I thought I would share some things with you. I have been on this journey with Stampin’ Up! for 7 1/2 years now. It has been a crazy time. You know I still don’t know all there is to stamping and cardmaking. There is always fun new techniques and products to play around with. Sometimes I wonder why am I doing this though.

I always come back to the conclusion that I love sharing stamping with others. I love sharing my projects with you here on my blog. (I do hope you like what I share – if you don’t well I guess you won’t come back will you!! LOL). I love sharing my projects with my customers in my class room. It’s always a fun time and I have to say that sometimes they laugh at my expense. Well hey, I am not perfect am I. There are never any mistakes in stamping though right. 🙂 I love it though when new people I meet have that smile on their face that says “I did it!” after continually telling me that they are not crafty.

I love sharing projects I make with others too to give as gifts or to celebrate an occasion. That’s what it is all about. Sharing with others. I am thankful to Stampin’ Up! for enabling me to do this. Without Stampin’ Up! I wouldn’t have fantastic products to use, I wouldn’t have team mates and wonderful friends here and around the world that I can share with. I couldn’t afford to buy all these amazing products without the great discount I get or the little freebies (or rewards!) I get along the way.

I love being a Stampin’ Up! Demonstrator to be able to do all this. I am thankful for all it has given me. I am thankful for my customers (who I call my friends). Many who have been with me from those very early days. I am thankful for my friends I have made near and far. I am thankful to my blog readers (MWAH!). I will be around for a little while still.

THANK YOU FOR BEING A PART OF MY LIFE!

I found this on the internet. I hope they don’t mind me sharing but it sums it all up really.

FLAMINGO FOR FRESHLY MADE SKETCHES #226!

March 6, 2016March 6, 2016 Jenny Hayward

I saw this idea on Pinterest a few weeks ago to make a flamingo with the ‘Balloon Builders’ stamp set. I had only just started using this set after receiving it at Stampin’ Up! Onstage last November. I thought this flamingo was kinda cool though. So I stamped it up but then I didn’t know how to put it on a card – until I saw the Freshly Made Sketches sketch this week. So I finally added it to a card – and it is done before the time of the sketch challenge to end! Here is the sketch and then my card.

The card base is Melon Mambo and the paper is from the ‘It’s My Party’ Paper Stack. I matted this piece on to some Silver Foil. (Just a tip: Cut a rectangle from the centre of your Silver Foil piece then you can use that piece for another project). The sentiment is from ‘Remembering Your Birthday’ and I cut a little silver piece from the ‘Itty Bitty Banners’. I added a Paper Lace Doily and some Melon Mambo dots from the ‘It’s My Party’ Enamel Dots.

I have used a number of the balloons from the ‘Balloon Builders’ set and drew the legs freehand. This is a fun set and you can create so many cute things with it. Here is the set if you haven’t noticed it in the catalogue.

This is on p. 14 of the catalogue. It is a photopolymer stamp and is $28. Great value for 19 stamps!

The original Flamingo card can be found HERE. Go and check the link out though because Ruth has lots of clever ideas with this set.

Thanks for stopping by. Have yourself a great day where ever you are. 🙂
