CASEING SHELLI’S VINTAGE VERSES

March 12, 2013March 12, 2013 Jenny Hayward

I can’t believe how fast Sale-A-Bration has flown by. Only 10 days left. How can that be!!! There is still so many wonderful products I haven’t played with yet!! This is one card I created the other day. Yes, I have CASED Shelli! I first found this card on the U.S. Stampin’ Up! Website. You can find the card here on Shelli’s Blog. Here is my version.

I don’t think mine is as good as Shelli’s. I used Crumb Cake instead of Sahara Sand and I think the DSP pennant at the bottom is not right. I love the way there is that little strip of embossing using the Vine Embossing Folder along the bottom of the White tag though. There is lots of Sale-A-Bration goodies on this card: Vintage Verses and Madison Avenue Stamp Sets. The Sycamore Street DSP, Vine Embossing Folder, Pool Party ribbon and button. All on one card. I couldn’t have come up with so many of these on the one card, so Thanks Shelli!!!

Just before I go, have you checked out the Sale-A-Bration Catalogue yet?? There is a link in the Right Hand side bar so head over there now to check it out if you haven’t already. There are Free Stampin’ Up! products for you as a Customer, a Hostess and/or as a new member to our Stampin’ Up! Family. You can’t miss it out. So hurry up time is running out!! If you want more details then head over here to an earlier post I did and that will fill you in on all the details. There might not be a lot of time left for an In-Home workshop but did you know you can have a Catalogue Party. Pass the Catalogue around to your friends and collect their orders. If they total $300 or more you still receive all the wonderful Free products that you would have for a $300 party. How cool is that!!! So come on, pass the Catalogue around to your friends and get back to me- very soon though!!

Thanks for stopping by. It is nice to have you visit. I look forward to you visiting again soon.

“PRETTY PETITES”

February 28, 2013February 28, 2013 Jenny Hayward

It has been a little while since I have been here to share my projects with you. Sometimes life just gets busy!!! I am so far behind in my blogging so today I have for you not ONE but THREE cards to show you. I won’t go in to too much detail about the cards. I think they are fairly straight forward. So, on with the show!!!

The layout for this card was inspired by one I saw on Pinterest. I love Lucky Limeade teamed with Island Indigo. I will so miss these colours. They will be gone in just a few months. SIGH!!!! Make sure you stock up now on these colours.

This one uses Patio Party DSP. I am still not sure about this one. I whipped this one up quickly but feel there is something wrong with it. I think I should have put the strip down towards the bottom. Maybe the paper is too busy for that little greeting? What do you think??

I think this one is cute. It really shows off a lot of stamps in the set. I CASED this from Becky Roberts here. I have used Summer Smooches DSP and there is that Island Indigo and Lucky Limeade again – along with Tangerine Tango.

Thanks for stopping by. I can’t believe there is only 1 month of Sale-A-Bration left. I hope you have got your Sale-A-Bration products already. Otherwise, stop deliberating and get to it! They will be gone before you know it!!!! For every $100 order you can select one of the fantastic exclusive products. Have a look at the catalogue. The link is in the right hand side bar.

Stop by again soon so I can show you some more yumminess from the Sale-A-Bration Catalogue AND the seasonal catalogue. We can’t forget that one too!

BLUE BABY PRINTS!

February 22, 2013February 22, 2013 Jenny Hayward

Last weekend at a workshop I did (was it really nearly a week ago!!) the hostess wanted scrapbooking. Well, if you have been following my blog I don’t do a lot of scrapbooking. I really need to – and I would like to do more but ……………. ! Anyway, I rose to the challenge and after several attempts I created this page.

I have used the ‘Baby Prints’ Set. It was nice to ink that up finally. What a cute set for Baby scrapbooking pages. This is an 8 1/2″ x11″ page. The colour of the card is Baja Breeze. It looks a little green in the photo. See the little embellishment on the BABY square. I will give you a close-up.

I have used the Sale-A-Bration set ‘Pretty Petites’. (This is one of the free choices you can get for $100). This is stamped in Pacific Point and punched out with the Petite Curly Label Punch (another free Salel-A-Bration choice). I added a Clear Faceted Button and Whisper White Twine bow. For the word “Baby” I inked up part of the text with the Pacific Point marker.

I wanted to show them how you can step-up this page to create a 12″x12″ page. This is the finished page.

I added a scallop edge at the top and bottom of the 8 1/2″x11″ page. The DSP strip is from ‘Floral District’. Check out this little tag.

This was created with the ‘Pretty Petites’ stamp set too. The ‘B’ is from the ‘Calendar Alphabet and Numbers’ set (retired). I punched out a silver glimmer paper heart using the owl punch.

Now just to find a photo that fits. I went through all Josh’s baby photos and couldn’t find one suitable. I will have to do a bit of editing on one I think!

I hope you like this cute page. Thanks for stopping by. Have a great weekend. Stay safe. We have very heavy storms heading our way this weekend.

“CHOCOLATE HEART OF HEARTS”

February 14, 2013 Jenny Hayward

Happy Valentine’s Day everyone!!! I hope you have had a lovely day. We don’t celebrate Valentine’s Day in a big way here in Australia. Maybe a gift or some chocolate for a loved one??? I had made up a little bag of chocolate treats for my family. I have to say I was totally surprised to get a bunch of flowers from my husband this morning!!! 🙂

Today I had a workshop and I thought it would be nice to give the guests a little Valentine treat. It was a last minute decision so it was nothing fancy.

The Whisper White heart is cut with the Scalloped Heart of Hearts Embosslits. I hadn’t realised until I was making these that they have tiny little hearts embossed on the heart. Maybe I have just been a bit blind! I found these little chocolate hearts at the discount store which was perfect for them. The ‘For You’ is from Itty Bitty Banners and I cut a red banner from the ‘Bitty Banners’ Framelits also. I stuck these behind the chocolate heart and I had just enough of the retired red Grosgrain ribbon to add a loop on them. I think the guests liked their little chocolate surprise today.

Off to bed for me now. See you next time,

Jenny

MARINA MIST SECRET GARDEN!

February 11, 2013February 11, 2013 Jenny Hayward

While I am on a roll with ‘Secret Garden’ cards I thought I would show you another one. This card was inspired by this card here.

Here is my version.

The flowers are stamped in Midnight Muse onto Marina Mist card and cut with the matching Framelits. The large flower was stamped a second time and the middle section was cut out and layered onto the large flower. Yes, cut with scissors! The greeting is from “Petite Pairs” and stamped in Midnight Muse on to Whisper White. Then this was layered onto Midnight Muse card. For the base I ran a piece of Marina Mist card through the Big Shot with the Honeycomb Embossing Folder and layered it on to the Marina Mist Card base.

I have been playing with some other stamps from the new Seasonal Catalogue AND Sale-A-Bration. So much to play with at the moment! I love to have you vist. I hope you can visit again soon.

I have another card to show you using the ‘Secret Garden’ Stamp Set. This is similar to the card I showed in the last post but I did actually make this one first. This is for my lovely friend Leonie N for her birthday. I won’t tell you how old she turned!!! 😉

STAMP: Secret Garden.

INK: Black StazOn.

OTHER: Honeycomb Embossing Folder, Ovals Framelits, Timeless Type Junior Alphabet (retired), Marina Mist Satin Ribbon (retired), Adhesive Pearls.

I was really pleased with how this turned out. I love this Embossing Folder. You really don’t need much more to a card. It just adds such lovely texture.

Thanks for stopping by today. I look forward to you visiting again soon. 🙂

I have stamped them in Black StazOn on coloured card using some of the new Incolors: Summer Starfruit, Raspberry Ripple and Primrose Petals. I stamped the “Beautiful Birthday” greeting and cut it out with the new Oval Framelites. This was all layered onto a piece of Whisper White embossed with the new and very versatile ‘Honeycomb’ Embossing Folder.

VINTAGE VERSES IN POOL PARTY!!

January 23, 2013January 23, 2013 Jenny Hayward

Here is one of the first cards I have made with one of the Free Sale-A-Bration sets. Have to say it didn’t come together quite like in my head BUT anyway I am going to show you.

A piece of Pool Party card was cut with a larger Labels Framelits and then embossed with the Vintage Wallpaper Embossing Folder. I cut a piece of DSP from the ‘Floral District’ pack with a smaller Labels Framelits and this was layered under the Pool Party card. The verse from Vintage Verses was stamped in Rich Razzleberry on Whisper White and layered under that. It was all adhered to the front of a Pool Party card base. The fold of the card is on the Left Hand side. I added a small heart punched from Silver Glimmer Paper. White Organze ribbon was wrapped around the card and some Pool Party Satin ribbon (one of the Free choices with Sale-A-Bration) was tied through this. All this resulted in an elegant card – I think???? I’m still not completely sure about the card though. Hope you like it and may find some inspiration!!

Thanks for stopping by. I have some more Sale-A-Bration creations in store so stop by again soon,
