STAMPIN’ UP! ADORABLE OWLS!

Jenny Hayward

I have shared the Adorable Owls before but have to share this card too. I’m really loving these cute owls. I’m not normally in to owls but these are just so happy. You can’t help but smile.

This one was coloured with the Watercolor Pencils and just a light wash over it. I teamed it with the Dandy Designs Paper also from Sale-A-Bration. Who said blue and green can’t be seen together?? 😉

There are only 2 weeks left to pick up the Adorable Owls set or the Dandy Designs Paper or any of the other great choices. Don’t miss out on them. You can choose one with your qualifying orders.

Happy Stamping,

WEDNESDAY’S WOW! #144 – ADD COLOUR TO YOUR DIECUTS

Jenny Hayward

Back with our Wednesday’s WOW for the year. These are little tips, techniques, ideas to help your crafting.

Wednesday’s WOW! #144 – A fun way to add colour to your diecut pieces.

I came across this idea and thought it was so cool. Want to add some colour?

Grab a small piece of card and your colouring pencils. Scribble some colour in patches on the card in different areas just a little larger than the die you want to use. No need to add water to blend the colour. When you diecut it the piece will have “lines” or different colourings which add some lovely colour contrasts.

Hope you get to try it out yourself.

Have a Happy Wednesday,

Jenny

HOOT, HOOT – ADORABLE OWL CARD!

Jenny Hayward

I don’t do a lot of colouring but I have been having a little fun with the Adorable Owls Stamp Set recently. They are cute!

This card I showed on my Facebook Live last week. You might have caught it but I thought I would share it with you now.

I have coloured the owl with the Watercolor Pencils and given it a light wash with the Water Painter. Just be sure to use Stazon ink to stamp the image in if you are using Water so the black ink doesn’t run.

The Adorable Owls Stamp Set is a gift to you with your orders over $90 AUD for Sale-A-Bration.

The paper is from the Dandy Designs Designer Series Paper. This is another bonus gift for you with Sale-A-Bration. This one is for orders over $180 AUD. It is a great paper stack with lots of lovely colours and patterns.

Need some supplies and in Australia?

BEAUTIFUL MOMENTS WEEK – DAY 2 – FLAMINGO GIRLS!

Jenny Hayward

Day 2 of the Beautiful Moments Week as I showcase this gorgeous stamp set.

Yesterday I shared a card with the sweet girls in the stamp set.  So thought I would share another card with these girls.

This one was stamped in Saddle Brown Stazon on to watercolor paper.  Then it was coloured with the Watercolor Pencils then washed over with the Aquapainter.  I love the softness of it.

I stamped the birds in as an afterthought just before I assembled the card but I was annoyed that I used the Black.  I just grabbed that inkpad without thinking too much. I think it would have looked much better if I had used the Saddle Brown ink again.

I used a piece of Tropical Oasis Designer Series Paper.  I really wasn’t sure what I was going to do with this flamingo piece but the colouring worked really well with it.

Before adhering the stamped piece on to the card I looped around some of the Daffodil Delight Ruched Ribbon.

Have you seen the images in the Beautiful Moments stamp set?  I will be sharing more this week with it so stop by.

You can see it in my store now -> HERE.  If ordering online please use the Host Code: FURRYWCK

Have a great day,

Jenny

BY THE BAY WITH PENCILS!

Jenny Hayward

I have been playing with the Sale-A-Bration set By The Bay. Have you noticed it in the catalogue? It hasn’t had much of a showing on blogs and Pinterest that I have seen. This is actually the first card I made with it although I shared a card in the last post.  This one I have coloured with the Watercolour Pencils.

Firstly, you need to stamp on Shimmery White card or Watercolor Card with Stazon Ink when watercolouring.  I prefer the Shimmery White as it doesn’t have the texture on it.

Take your time when colouring.  Lightly colour an area and wash over it lightly with the Aquapainter to smooth out the colours then let it dry.  It doesn’t take too long to dry but once it is then you can go back and add some more colour to intensify the area or add highlights.

I have to say I am no expert at colouring and I am learning a lot as I go.  Picking what colours to use is always hard.  I coloured most of it and left the wall and the path/wall to last as I wasn’t sure what colour to use.  The path was Ok in the grey but I am not really happy with the wall.  I did try lifting some colour off but was starting to mess it up SO … you just have to go with what you have. Right?? 🙂

For the sentiment I stamped that on white card and cut it with one of the dies in the Bottles and Bubbles Framelits and cut a larger one in black with the larger die.  I think I have to use these dies a little more often for these small sentiments.  They are just the right size.  I coloured a Rhinestone with a Black Sharpie as I wanted a black embellishment.

To put the card together I cut the Thick Whisper White in Portrait orientation.  So cut down the length on the narrow side (10.5cm or 4 1/4″).  Score at the half way point on the long side (14.8cm or 5 1/4′).  Cut off 3cm or 1 1/4″ on the bottom edge.  On the inside of the card I stamped the seagulls twice across the bottom.

 

By The Bay is available now as a free choice for Sale-A-Bration with orders over $90.

Order in store now -> HERE. Please use the Host Code: TTBQMGUT  You can select By The Bay or any of the other Sale-A-Bration options when you reach the qualifying order amount.

Have a great weekend.  I will be back again soon with another By The Bay Project for you.

WEDNESDAY’S WOW! #47 – MAKING UP A SHIMMER PAINT SPRAY!

Jenny Hayward

This weekend is my Shimmer Paint Technique class.  I have been having lots of fun sponging and spraying this stuff around.  For our Wednesday’s WOW! #47 I thought I would share with you how to make the Shimmer Spray up.  Also, I will show you one of the cards we will make in class using this spray.

MAKE YOUR SHIMMER PAINT SPRAY

Add a small amount of the Shimmer Paint in a Stampin’ Spritzer bottle.  I added about 1cm, or approximately 1/2″.  The more paint the more intense the spray will be. Then top up the bottle with Rubbing Alcohol.  The Rubbing Alcohol can be picked up at most Chemists (or Drug Stores).  You can add water instead of alcohol but it doesn’t dry as quickly.  Give it a good shake to mix them together.  Before you use this each time if it has sat for a while then be sure to shake it.  That’s all there is to it.

TIP: When you are spraying your card check which direction the nozzle is as to where it will spray …  You might like to spray inside a box or cover the table to avoid any random spraying.

The further away you hold the spritzer the finer the mist will be.  Bring the Spritzer in closer and it will be more heavier.

This is the card we will be creating on the weekend.  (By the way there are still spaces if you are a Wollongong local and want to join us. Check the previous post for class details).

I have used the Southern Serenade stamp set and stamped it on to Shimmery White cardstock.  That gives extra sparkle but also is good for the liquid used.  I stamped the images in Black Stazon and coloured them with the Watercolor Pencils.   After it was finished I spritzed the card.  This spray is using the Vegas Gold Shimmer Paint.

You can see the Shimmer Paints on page 38 of the Holiday catalogue or view them in store ->HERE.  Scroll down the page to see each one.  There are 4 colours: Vegas Gold, Bright Copper, Champagne Mist (which is a silver) and Frost White.

Get your Free Sponge Dauber for each pot of Shimmer Paint you order from me this week.  Each pot is $14.

SO SANTA MOPED!

Jenny Hayward

I shared some cards yesterday using the So Santa set for a Blog Hop.  Did you see them?  Jump back a post to check them out if you missed them.

Today I have another card for you using the So Santa set.  I love the cool Santa on the Moped.

I coloured this image with the Watercolor Pencils.   I looped around some Silver Thread onto the back of the stamped piece.  This piece was adhered on to a piece of the All Is Bright Designer Series Paper and then adhered to a Real Red Card base.

The sentiment was stamped on black card in Versamark and heat embossed with White Embossing Powder.  To finish the card I added a Real Red Rhinestone.

Do you like this cool dude?  It’s such a fun set.

This set is available in the 2018 Holiday Catalogue. You can see it and order it in my store now -> HERE. Please use the Host Code: ME4VSE3W   or order directly to me (Australian residents only).

Thanks for visiting me.
