FRAMED PRETTY FLORALS CARD – SAME BUT DIFFERENT!

Jenny Hayward

I have been playing a lot with the Pretty Florals Bundle. I have shared some different ones already. These 2 cards are very similar. There are just some variations.

They have the same paper, the Florals in Bloom Paper, and I have created the black frames to really highlight the flowers. You might be able to tell the differences though.

The one with the Fresh Freesia flowers is using the larger diecut flower and the outline edge. I sponged over a little Fresh Freesia ink to add some extra definition. This one is on a Fresh Freesia Card Base. The sentiment is from the Simply Said Stamp Set and diecut with the Mixed Labels Dies. We made this one in our class last week using the Pretty Florals Bundle.

The other one is with the small pink flowers. The flowers are in Pretty In Pink and the little edges, (Not sure what you would call them) are in the Strawberry Slush. This one has a Pretty In Pink Card Base. The sentiment on this one is from the Stippled Roses Stamp Set I think.

So which one do you prefer?

This is a great bundle. I have had a lot of fun creating with it.

SPARKLE WITH THE BEAUTIFUL BUTTERFLIES ~

Jenny Hayward

Back to more Butterfly cards. I have used the Beautiful Butterflies a lot!

This was one of the cards we made at class last week for my Card Buffet. It’s simple but with the diecut butterfly shape cut in paper it adds an extra element. The paper is from the Mixed Media Florals Paper. Then a little sparkle in Glimmer Paper was added. Got to love a sparkly, fluttery butterfly!

The wavy Embossed background gives a look of movement for the butterfly too. The Soft Waves Embossing Folder is a great versatile Folder. You don’t have to just use it for wavy seas.

The sentiment is from the Labeled With Love Stamp Set.

CREATE A WINDOW FLAP FOLD CARD + A VIDEO!

Jenny Hayward

This week’s video is a Window Flap Fold Card. It gives a little surprise when you start opening the card.

This is the card when it is closed up.

I used the Florals in Bloom Designer Series Paper. It has such lovely colours and prints in the pack. The flowers are from the Pretty Florals Bundle. These are new in the 2025 Annual Catalogue just out this week.

When you open the card…

The sentiment is from the Loveliest Tree Stamp Set. For the window you can use any shape but I think circles do work best.

This is the inside.

I’m going to show you how easy it is to make one yourself. So follow along in the video.

You can follow along with the video HERE or on Youtube. I share the measurements in Metric and Imperial.

TRANSLUCENT FLORALS PART FRONT CARD!

Jenny Hayward

I made this card for our Retiring Class last week. But then I had to cancel it as I was unwell all week. But I can still show you.

This is with the Translucent Florals Bundle. It is leaving us soon.

It’s such an easy stamp set to work with. It does give it a a “translucent” effect on the flowers when you stamp them and you don’t even need to add any other colour.

You can’t really tell too much in the photo but part of the front of the card is cut off so the front panel hangs over the inside of the card. This shows the card closed.

And the inside of the card.

The embossing Folder I used on the front is leaving too. (Actually I just checked and it is already sold out sorry).

Be sure to check out all the Last Chance items before they go. They are only while supplies last.

You can see all the Last Chance Items -> HERE. If you are in Australia and need to order you can Order in my store at that link OR contact me directly. I am happy to help you out.

Jenny Hayward

This week for our video we have … a Trifold Arches Card.

You can make them any shape you like though if you don’t have the Everyday Arches Dies. Try with Oval or Rectangle Dies or cut your Rectangles with the Paper Trimmer if you don’t have any.

Here is the card folded up.

You can also decorate it as you like. I have used the Wildflower Birthday Specialty Paper which has the gorgeous paper with gold touches and the Diecut pieces so no colouring involved.

The card is very easy to make. In the video I show you the measurements in Metric and Imperial. If you would like the written Tutorial I will be sending that out to my newsletter Subscribers next week. (Tuesday 15th April).

I send out a Tutorial each week to my lovely Subscribers so be sure to be on the list. You can find the link in the Right Hand Side Bar on my blog.

A SIMPLE CARD WITH THE THANKFUL GARDEN STAMP SET!

Jenny Hayward

Recently we had the Thankful Garden Class. I showed different ways of using the Stamps, Dies and Masks. Everyone created 3 cards.

I like to start off with a very simple card. Then step them up and then usually a different technique or Fun Fold.

This was the Simple card. Just stamping the big flowers on the card and adding some pretty paper from the Unbounded Beauty Paper.

This is a great one when you don’t feel like colouring. But if the colouring urge grabs you it’s an easy one to colour. It has Masks in the Bundle which you can colour with ink and the Blending Brushes. Or you could colour them with the Stampin’ Blends or other colouring mediums.

I have to point out the sentiment rectangle piece. These are my new favourite. They are the Textured Notes Dies. I have talked about these previously but they are gorgeous. They have different edgings around the rectangles. You can use them on their own or layering them together.

If you are in Australia I would love to help you grab your latest crafting goodness. You can head to my Store -> HERE.

Don’t miss out on the Last Chance retiring items though too. Great discounts there.

AND, if you are a Wollongong Local and would love to get together with some new found friends and be creative I would love you to join my classes. We always look forward to people joining us. Drop me a Comment or an email and I can tell you about it.

Happy Crafting,

BEAUTIFUL BUTTERFLIES WITH BOKEH PAPER!

Jenny Hayward

Beautiful Butterflies and pretty paper. It’s such a sweet combination. This card was one of the cards in the video of 5 Ways with the Beautiful Butterflies. I realised I hadn’t shown you more of it

I have used some strips of the Beautiful Bokeh Paper on the card mat. Then stamped and coloured 3 small butterflies to match the paper strips. I added some Wink of Stella to the wings to make them sparkle but it is hard to see in the photo.

Although there is a little colouring with the butteflies it is a card you can reproduce a number of to give to lovely people to brighten their day.

If you missed the video to see the 5 Ways I posted this recently on my blog. You can head back to see it on my blog just a little way back OR it is now on Youtube.

If you need some supplies to create the card yourself or for any other project I would love to help you if you live in Australia.

WEDNESDAY’S WOW! 167 – TEXTURED NOTES DIES SIZES

Jenny Hayward

Wednesday’s WOW! #167 – What’s the sizes of the Textured Notes Dies??

People often ask the sized of the Textured Notes Dies. And that’s a good question. You want to know how they will fit on your card.

So here you go. I put together this little chart that shows the sizes. Save it for future reference.

These dies are part of the Textured Notes Bundle but I particularly like the Dies. They have different markings on the edges that create embossed look on the edge of your card. Use them to create a frame or to add an image directly on them. They are very versatile on their own or layer them together.

The Dies and stamps have just been released as an Online Exclusives this month.

You can see the Dies more in store -> HERE.

You can see the Bundle more in store -> HERE.

I am loving these dies. They are very versatile and I think they will be a great one for your collection.

Hope that is helpful for you.

Happy Crafting,

Stampin' Up!, Sunday Suites

SUNDAY SUITES – MIXED MEDIA FLORALS ~

Jenny Hayward

It’s Sunday Suites Time. Today with the Mixed Media Florals Suite.

There is a lot included in this suite so let’s check it out.

The Mixed Media Florals Suite consists of:

  • The Mixed Florals Bundle
  • The Mixed Labels Bundle
  • Plaster Painting 3D Embossing Folder
  • Mixed Media Florals Designer Series Paper
  • Low-Profile Dots (140 in total in 2 sizes) Petal Pink and Gold

Let’s look at these a bit closer.

The Mixed Florals Bundle

The Mixed Labels Bundle

I have to say the Dies on their own are even great. You can use them for a number of different sentiments if you don’t want to use these.

The Plaster Painting Embossing Folder

The Mixed Media Florals Designer Series Paper

The paper has a number of different Mixed Media techniques in the paper. According to Stampin’ Up! it includes gouache, watercolour, and digital art. It’s sounds all impressive and looks even more impressive. I had to look up gouache. This is a water-Based paing that is opaque and has a matte finish. It’s made from natural pigment, water, and a binding agent like gum arabic or dextrin. Gouache is similar to watercolor but is more opaque and less transparent. 

The colours are gorgeous together. You can colour the Black and White prints if you wish to.

The colours in this paper are Basic Black, Boho Blue, Calypso Coral, Daffodil Delight, Flirty Flamingo, Granny Apple Green, Mossy Meadow, Petal Pink, Poppy Parade, Shy Shamrock.

So let’s see what Stampin’ Up! has created with these great products.

Lots of diecutting for this one.

The paper background gives the impression of a sunny sky. It’s pretty.

Try a little White Heat Embossing and then colour the image with White ink. It gives a chalkboard effect perhaps.

This one let’s the deep texture with the Embossing Folder stand out.

And create a small gift box with some of the pretty paper.

This Suite of products is an Online Exclusives. You can buy the full Suite ($225.00 AUD) or buy each of the items individually.

You can see more of this Suite in the Store -> HERE. You can Order them directly there or Contact me to help you.

Happy Sunday,

MINI BEAUTIFUL BUTTERFLIES CARD!

Jenny Hayward

I have been sharing a lot with the Beautiful Butterflies Bundle. It is a gorgeous one. You might have caught the 5 Ways with the Beautiful Butterflies Video I posted just recently. You can find this in a previous post on my blog or now on Youtube. But I will also have the link below if you missed it.

This is one of the cards I created. It is a Mini Beautiful Butterflies folded card in Fresh Freesia.

MAKE IT YOURSELF:

To create this place your die on the fold line of your card base with the little score marks on the die lining up on the fold. Diecut it out. You will have a fold card. If you want some pretty paper on the butterfly adhere your paper to the front of the card first. I used the Beautiful Bokeh paper for this one.

I added a detailed diecut body in white on the front of the card.

If you missed the tip on how to cut the black body then be sure to check on my page or on the video -> HERE.

If you have the Beautiful Butterflies I hope you get to make one similar. Have a play with it. It’s lots of fun.

This is the Beautiful Butterflies Bundle. You can see it more in my store -> HERE.
