STAMPIN’ UP! EYELET BLOOMS DIE IN HYDRANGEA HUE ~

Jenny Hayward

My new favourite colour – Hydrangea Hue. What do you think of the colour?

I created a simple card with the Eyelet Blooms Die.

This card was inspired by Ingrid from the Product of the Month Demonstrator Council. I stepped it up a little with some ribbon and diecut a small piece for the flower and fussy cut it out. To highlight the flower I added some ink to the edges.

The edge of the diecut is easy to snip off with scissors as the flowers are partly diecut anyway. I did cut the card mat a bit bigger than the card mat size so I can trim it down to size to get the edging in the right place with enough room to add the sentiment.

A tip with using this die.

I found I needed to run the die and card through the machine twice then turned the die and card over and ran it through twice again. Then I could peel if off easily from the die. You can brush over it with the brush to help if you find you need to help take it off.

The Eyelet Blooms Die is April Product of the Month. It is a gorgeous, detailed die to add either to the front of your cards or add a small section like the card I had shared in a previous post.

You can receive the Product of the Month item when your order reaches the qualifying amount and with an additional small cost. In Australia it is $125 order and pay an additional $9. You select that when you place your order. Check your own market for the price there.

LOVELY BLOSSOMS WITH THE EYELET BLOOMS DIE

Jenny Hayward

This was an Oopsie card! I hadn’t intended it to turn out quite like this but that’s ok right. Sometimes you start out with an idea in your head and something doesn’t quite go to plan. There is an Oopsie! We are crafters. We can pivot and change it up.

I wanted to use the Eyelet Blooms Die that is this month’s Product of the Month. I diecut a panel for the front of the card. But it slipped when I diecut and it went slightly crooked. That wasn’t going to work for the front. I could have diecut it again. And I probably will try that again at another time but why waste this piece.

I was inspired by a card that Stampin’ Up! artists created diecutting a tag shape. So I used the Party Banners Dies and diecut a piece from it and added that to a piece of the Lovely Blossoms Paper. And I stamped the flowers and leaves. Bonus, no colouring the flowers … The lighting is not great but it might give you some ideas.

When you use this die you can use the Take a Pick tool or a piercer to lift the little petals of some of the flowers. You could use a Dauber and add some ink to the edges of the petals to highlight them.

So don’t throw away your Oopsies. See how you can change them. Have you done that before?

STAMPIN’ UP CUTEST CREW WITH THE BIRDS ~

Jenny Hayward

This time it is the birds I have created with the Cutest Crew Bundle. It’s such a fun, cute set.

I coloured these ones with the Stampin’ Blends. Then I realised how was I going to finish the card. Sometimes I really don’t plan ahead. I found this piece in the Painted Illusions Paper matched well.

Trying something different too with stamping the sentiment over the diecut circle. That’s out of the norm for me.

Have you been creating with the Cutest Crew yourself?

The Cutest Crew is an Online Exclusives. If you would like this in your collection and you are in Australia, you can order through my store -> HERE Or Contact me directly. I hope you might grab this on as it is so fun to create with.

STAMPIN’ UP! CUTEST CREW ON A BANNER – BUT SHOULD I??

Jenny Hayward

I really struggled with this card.

I had the little puppies coloured for a few weeks. Then to put the card together I couldn’t get it to work where I was happy with it. I probably redid this card 4 times.

Here it is though. Because we can share the good, the bad and the ugly.

I diecut the banner from the Painted Illusions Paper but the background… Do I add a strip of card? The colours weren’t working. I diecut the strip? Still not great. Do I emboss the white card mat. One time the embossing just wouldn’t work with the paper. It seemed too busy for the pattern on the paper. Maybe I was overthinking it all.

So I settled on this. I’m still not sure about it but I think it is the better option. 😁

What are your thoughts? Should I change the colour? Maybe file it in the bin? HAHA! At the end of the day the puppies are cute. 😊

Oh! And if you hadn’t seen the stamps and dies bundle before it’s the Cutest Crew Bundle.

The diecut banner is from the Party Banners Dies. And another one I have had for a while and this was the first time using it … The White card is embossed with the Lovely Stripes Embossing Folder.

DIAGONAL GATEFOLD CARD + A VIDEO

Jenny Hayward

This card might look complicated but it’s really not. It’s called a Diagonal Gatefold Card. You can create it with the card and paper you like. For this one I have used the Painted Illusions Designer Series Paper.

You open it out. This is the inside. I love the angled look.

Here is another one using the same paper pack, but just doing that that can change it up a lot by using different colours.

It really is easy and I can show you. I share the measurements in Metric and Inches for you.

Follow along with the Video -> HERE.

Hope you get to try one yourself.

The Painted Illusions Paper is this month’s Product of the Month.

DON’T DITCH THOSE HEARTS FROM THE STAMPIN’ UP! CUTEST CREW SET ~

Jenny Hayward

I have just received the Cutest Crew Bundle that will be starting in March. It is very cute. And I discovered something fun when I was using it.

Firstly, the card and I will tell you about it.

I’m not much for colouring but I am trying to work on it. I coloured the cute dogs with Stampin’ Blends. The paper circle is from the Painted Illusions pack.

The Cutest Crew has a row of dogs like this, a row of cats and then 3 birds. It has some cute dies for them all. It will be available as an Online Exclusives starting in March. I think it is going to be popular.

Something I discovered though. When I diecut the red paw print strip those larger “bits” looked like hearts. So I added them to the card. It just adds to the cuteness. Don’t waste those little hearts.

You can see the Cutest Crew Bundle in March. I will play with it more very soon too. So much to play with not enough time. Do you find that?

PAINTED ILLUSIONS PAPER + WITH YOU IN MIND!

Jenny Hayward

More with the Painted Illusions Designer Series Paper. I kept it simple again highlighting the wavy paper and bold colours.

The Happy Birthday is from the ‘With You In Mind’ Stamp Set. I stamped it on white card (it is white…) and then diecut it with one of the Textured Notes Dies. It was wider than the width of the card so I trimmed it down. Having the edging top and bottom of that piece adds some extra detail and texture.

Take a closer look at the “flowery” shape in the circle. Rather than just simply stamping it I added extra colour. Firstly, it was inked in Granny Apple Green and then I used a dauber to add some Pretty in Peacock in areas over it. You only need a little dab of ink. Then it was diecut with one of the small circles in the Stylish Shapes Dies.

Then I added some Rhinestones for the finish. You could add more to this card if you like to but I just kept it simple for the paper.

The Painted Illusions Paper is February Product of the Month.

With Product of the Month you can receive this with your qualifying order. In Australia when your order reaches $125 then you can purchase the Product for $9. There is only One per person. And While Supplies Last. Check your market for the qualifying amount.

STAMPIN’ UP! PRODUCT OF THE MONTH IS HERE~

Jenny Hayward



The NEW Stampin’ Up!® Product of the Month has begun.

December Product of the Month has just been released. This is the gorgeous True Blue Florals 12″x12″ Designer Series Paper.

What do you think??

Here are some projects with this paper. I will be back later to share more with you.

With this one below the lined flowers were fussy cut from one of the papers. It looks so great. The other smaller flowers were cut from another pattern and the centres coloured in yellow.

Use your paper as the card base as a different option.

This one below uses 3 patterns from the paper. And those lovely flowers from the Pretty Florals Bundle but you could use any stamps/dies.

That about a patchwork design. It’s a great way of showing off the different patterns. For this one diecut a number of squares. Having the “dotted” edge from the Stylish Shapes gives a good effect but you could cut your squares with a Paper Trimmer. With the paper squares and some of the white square cut them in half diagonally. I would suggest then laying the pieces out in your patchwork look pattern before you adhere them down. And a TIP: maybe cut a piece of card the same size as your finished piece and adhere the white triangles and paper triangles directly to them to make it easier.

Don’t miss out on your Product of the Month this month. But remember these are WHILE SUPPLIES LAST.
