Textured Notes Dies – A Stamping Journey

More with the Stampin’ Up! Modern Christmas Specialty Paper. I have loved playing with this paper. It is so shiny and so classy for Christmas this year.

I have to say though. It is hard to take a photo with all the shine and glare you get. I used 2 different patterns of the paper together with this one and then a simple sentiment diecut with a circle from the Spotlight on Nature Dies.

I added texture by embossing a strip of Garden Green card with the Soft Waves Embossing Folder. Layering the pieces of paper on a card mat gives some contrast. The Cherry Cobbler piece was diecut with one of the rectangles in the Textured Notes Dies.

This would be a simple design if you have to mass produce your Christmas cards. It still adds a little class and shine but easy to cut and stick together in no time.

Hope your Christmas cards are going well.

Happy Crafting,

Jenny

MOSSY MEADOW FLORAL CHARM CARD ~

July 24, 2025July 24, 2025 Jenny Hayward

I have been playing more with the Floral Charm Suite which includes the Charming Day Bundle and the gorgeous Floral Charm Paper.

This is one of the recent cards. The dark colours are hard to photograph so hope it’s not too dark for you to see.

It did take some time to colour the flowers to be honest. I wasn’t sure about getting the colours right but I’m putting it out there for you anyway. I used the Petal Pink Stampin’ Blends and touch of the Light Pecan Pie I think.

It’s simply a piece of the Floral Charm paper on a Mossy Meadow Card Base. The strip of Floral Charm Paper helps to highlight the flowers and leaves. The sentiment is diecut with one of the Textured Notes Dies.

Here is the Charming Day Bundle. See it more -> HERE.

And that gorgeous Floral Charm Paper. See it more -> HERE.

Don’t forget there is Free Shipping until Friday so this might be good timing if you like to get these – or any other products.

SWEET SUNDAY WITH PARTY PANDAS STAMP SET ~

May 18, 2025May 18, 2025 Jenny Hayward

I am loving pandas at the moment. They are so cute and clumsy. I remembered the Party Pandas Stamp Set. I sold mine some time ago after it retired. I was sad about that. It is such a cute set.

BUT, I received a new set on Mother’s Day last weekend. I was excited. So I spent Mother’s Day afternoon creating with it. These are the cards I came up with.

On the Left Hand Card, I used the Soft Waves Embossing Folder. The rectangle is diecut with one of the Textured Notes Dies. The Thinking of You is from the With You In Mind Stamp Set.

On the Right Hand Card the paper is from the Mixed Media Florals Pack.

I think I will have a bit of fun creating with these Pandas.

Happy Crafting,

Jenny

STAMPIN’ UP! FLOWERS OF BEAUTY IS LEAVING!

April 17, 2025April 17, 2025 Jenny Hayward

The Stampin’ Up! Flowers of Beauty with the Stamps and Dies will be leaving. This was another card from our Retiring Class which didn’t end up happening last week. But I can show you.

For this card I CASED a card I made last year with the bundle and changed up the colours.

This one is in Lost Lagoon colour and I used the Everyday Happiness Designer Series Paper. The colours are soft and pretty in this pack.

I love the new Textured Notes Dies. Each Diecut rectangle has a different edge to it which adds just the extra element of interest.

To create the small frame I used the Something Fancy Dies. Which are also retiring. I used 2 frames together on the coloured card to cut the frame.

This is the Pretty in Pink version I made last year.

Which colour do you prefer?

If you want to get these Flowers of Beauty Stamps and Dies you will want to be quick.

A SIMPLE CARD WITH THE THANKFUL GARDEN STAMP SET!

April 3, 2025April 3, 2025 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,

WEDNESDAY’S WOW! 167 – TEXTURED NOTES DIES SIZES

March 26, 2025March 26, 2025 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,

Jenny
