Stampin' Up!

5 MINUTES, 5 DAYS, 5 WAYS WITH THE OPULENT OASIS BUNDLE – DAY 5

Last day of this Mini Series. 5 Minutes, 5 Days, 5 Ways with the Opulent Oasis Bundle.

See some other ways to stamp with the stamps and dies in this set.

This is the card I created.

You can make your own background paper. You could use different colours for the stamps and dies or as I have using one colour. I chose Smoky Slate as a subtle background.

The flower was stamped in Strawberry Slush and the leaves in Granny Apple Green. The smaller diecut leaves were in Old Olive.

Thanks for following along with this mini Series. Let me know what you think? Would you like to see more like this?

If you missed them head back to the past posts or Head to my Youtube channel and you can find them there.

If you are in Australia and need supplies I would love to help you get them. Head to my store -> HERE. Or Contact me directly.

Happy Crafting,

5 MINUTES, 5 DAYS, 5 WAYS WITH THE OPULENT OASIS BUNDLE – DAY 3

Day 3 of our series – 5 Minutes, 5 Days, 5 Ways with the Opulent Oasis Bundle.

These are small Bitesize videos showing how you can use the Stampin’ Up! Opulent Oasis Bundle. Day 1 looked at using the Impressions Mat with the Dies to get that extra puffiness. Then Day 2 looked at different ways of colouring the embossed/diecut images.

Day 3 I share another way of colouring with the Opulent Oasis Flower. It could be my favourite way. Be sure to check that out. If you don’t have this bundle I’m sure this could easily work with some of your other diecut flowers. Or even an embossed image. Try it out and see.

Here is the Video for Day 3.

Do you want to see more of the card.

The white outlined flower just POPS in Black. Especially against the Strawberry Slush colour. This is easy to create using the White Gel Pen. I embossed the Strawberry Slush card with the Beautiful Pattern Embossing Folder.

I love the effect of the diecut flower but there is lovely stamped images in the set too. See how to create with these in the next 2 videos.

Happy Crafting.

5 MINUTES, 5 DAYS, 5 WAYS WITH THE OPULENT OASIS BUNDLE – DAY 2 

Day 2 of our series – 5 Minutes, 5 Days, 5 Ways with the Opulent Oasis Bundle.

The first video I showed using the Impressions Mat. If you missed that head back a post. This video I showed some different ways of colouring the embossed/diecut flowers.

Hope you get to try these cards out. But if you don’t have the Opulent Oasis Bundle see what you have similar.

Try highlighting the flowers and leaves with Ink and a Dauber.

These 2 above used the Berry Botanicals Vellum Specialty Paper.

Or add some extra colour using Inks and Daubers. Do you think this looks like a Frangipanni Flower?

This one uses the Artisan Sketched Garden Designer Series Paper.

See another way of colouring in the next video.

5 MINUTES, 5 DAYS, 5 WAYS WITH THE OPULENT OASIS BUNDLE – DAY 1

I’m bringing you a new series this week. 5 Minutes, 5 Days, 5 Ways with the Opulent Oasis Bundle. Small bitesize videos to help inspire you when creating with this bundle. But if you don’t have this bundle you might just be able to create these with other stamps/dies you have.

In this video I show you how to use the new Impressions Mat. The mat helps give a little more “puffiness” to the Impressions Dies.

Here is the video for you to follow along.

These are the cards I showed how to make.

Which colour do you like – the Crisp Canteloupe or the Strawberry Slush?

Be sure to check back with the other videos this week as I share more with this Bundle.

ONE SHEET WONDER STYLE WITH THE STAMPIN’ UP! GEARS AND TEXTURES ~

I can finally share these cards with you – and the video. It’s been a busy time over the last few weeks so it has been hard to get time to share them.

These are One Sheet Wonder Style cards. They are so easy to create. Make 4 cards all in one go. Some simple random stamping and cut. Add then add to Card Bases and Card Mats and add diecut pieces and you are done. Oh and add a sentiment too.

These were the cards I created as Swaps for Onstage last month so they were quick to make a lot. I have put together a video to show you how it is done. A written Tutorial will be sent out to my newsletter subscribers tomorrow.

You could use any stamps and dies for this idea – Flowers, Butterflies, Seashells. Use what you have.

Here is the video to follow along.

Follow along. I hope you get to make them.

Happy Crafting,

Jenny

DIAGONAL GATEFOLD CARD + A VIDEO

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.

Happy Crafting,

FLIP IT FUN FOLD CARD + VIDEO

Today’s video is a Flip It card. I don’t know what it’s actual name is but that’s what I call it. I’m going to show you how.

This is the card.

The front panel stands up when you Flip It.

Then when it lays flat.

It is a little larger than a standard card so you may need to make an envelope to fit or give it directly to your special person. You may want to explain how it flips too so they can see the fun of it (and give you a WOW!)

I used the cute Festive Friends Stamps and Dies. You can create this for any occasion whether it is Christmas or Birthday or some other special event.

Here is the video to create your own Or head straight to my Youtube.

Hope you get to make one. As always I will send the writtent tutorial to my Newsletter Subscribers next week. I send out a Tutorial each week. If you would like to receive my Tutorials then you can subscribe to them. The Tab is on the Right Hand Side Bar on my blog.

Happy Crafting,

BEAUTIFUL BUTTERFLIES WITH BOKEH PAPER!

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.
