Gifts From The Garden Stamp Class

 
Hello on this Sunday Afternoon,
 
Not quite sure where the summer has gone but we made these a few weeks back.
 
Love this little stamp set, might be because of our love of growing our own veggies.  My hubbie keeps a journal of every trip to our allotment and it has given us so much information from each year of doing that hobbie together.  It always starts of with at this time last year we did......not to mention all his notes on his beloved ONIONS!!!!!
 
Anyway, the stamp set is called A Gift From The Garden and I used the Cottage Greetings stamp set to go with it for the sentiments.
 
The papers are the English garden ones delish!  So I took the colours from the papers.
Mossy Meadow, Hello Honey, Lost Lagoon and Soft suede with a hint of melon mambo.
 
 
 
I quite like to give some SEEDS as presents so I came up with little Seed Booklet to hold them.
 
It opens up like a book as below.  It holds 6 packets of Seeds.

 
I used all these products and if you want to play along the instructions are on the right hand side.

Acorny Thank You Sneak Peek


 
Evening All,
 
It's been a bit wet here today, but perfect for cracking open my Autumn Catalogue PreOrder Delivery.
 
My catalogues go in the post tomorrow and I thought I would put a little something in with them.
 
I used a few new items on this Thankful card.  The stamp set is called Acorny Thank You and it has a matching punch to punch out the acorns - Yay!  Actually you will find that there are a lot of bundles in this New Catalogue, either punch or framelits. 
 
I used a New corner punch for the middle section, which actually punches two different designs and one that punches a ribbon slot.
 
I saw a fantastic tip on a Convention Video we were shown, to do this technique of the spatters of glitter, see a close up here.


 
Drop a few drops of tombow glue and then add a few drops of water using an aquapainter, mix to water down the glue.  Then use the aquapainter to splatter it over the area you want to add glitter.
 

 
Shake over our Stampin UP Gold Fine Glitter then shake off excess. 
 
You end up with this gorgeous sparky effect. Magic....
 
I used the new gold cord to tie a bow on the punched out acorn.

 
The paper is called Into The Woods.  The dot on the word HI was made from the gold glittercard with the cup cake punch.
 
 
Thanks for looking,
Jenny:-)xx

Wild About Flowers Stamp Class....

 
Morning Everyone,
 
For this weeks stamp class we used the Wild about Flowers stamp set.
 
I love the font in this stamp set but we also used the sentiments in the Circle of Spring stamp set as well.
 
The two different colour combinations are Tip Top Taupe, Mint Macaron with either Delightful Dijon or Watermelon Wonder.
 
Lots of cutting out but after one of my ladies received a card from Carol using the Pleasant Poppies which they all wanted to make, that has retired so we used this stamp set as instead for the same effect.  For a larger version you can see the instruction in the Spring Extravaganza in 2014.

Circle Of Spring Stamp Class....

 
 
Morning Everyone,
 
A couple of weeks ago we used the Circle of Spring Stamp set for Class. Such a  lovely stamp set for some colouring in.
 
I chose three different combinations.  The one above is the Pacific Point, Tempting Turquiose and Old Olive.
 
Below is the Blushing Bride, Melon Mambo and Old Olive.

 
This one is the Pumpkin Pie, Daffodil Delight and Old Olive.

 
We used the matching framelits to cut out the wreath shape, bow and small extra flower.
 
I also used the triple banner punch for the paper layers and the polka dots for the embossing folder.

 
The gift bags were made with the new gift bag punch boards, fantastic value at £18.
 
The natural expressions for the wooden sentiments.
 
The size of the gift bag are the large ones, using a 6" tall piece of cardstock

 
Some of the cards we stamped directly onto the layer and didn't use the framelits.
All the colouring in was done directly with the markers.
 
 
 
On this one the wreath was cut out and layered up with 3d foam pads.

 
Gorgeous new pacific point ribbon.  Did you know the punch board punch out the holes for the ribbon as well, How Brilliant....
 
 
The sentiments are all in the stamp set as well, so not bad with the use of just one stamp set.
 

 
Thanks for looking,
Jenny:-)xx

Monthly Thank You's

 
Morning Everyone,
 
Lovely and Bright Thank You cards for my In Colour Club for this month.
 
I used the Definitely Dahlia Stamp set in each of the 5 In Colours.
 
The sentiments are the Natural expression elements on top of embossing done with the fluttering embossing folder.  I am loving the new 6" x 6" version of embossing folders.


Each bag has a matching gift tag, which makes it easy for me to give out the correct colour each month :-) 
 
This are the items I used...All available on my online shop.
