Wednesday’s WOW! #161 – Creating your own Embellishments.
Do you want to know a fun way of creating your own embellishments or accents? So easy. Let me show you.
Colour a piece of card with your Stampin’ Write Markers. You want to use the Markers rather than the Stampin’ Blends as you don’t want the colour to blend. It gives you the mottled, rough look.
Once you colour your card diecut it or punch it out and add it to your projects. It will give added texture to them.
See how it looks below.
This card is using the Quiet Meadow stamp set. What dies or punches could you use with this effect?
Hope you get to try it yourself.
Happy Crafting,
Jenny

Another Farewell. This time with the Bottled Happiness Stamp set. I wasn’t gonig to get this set in the beginning. But I did have fun playing with it. And the stamped bottles can be punched with the co-ordinating Vintage Bottle Punch.
This one below is the same card with different colour flowers.
Fun and funky with this one.
I created this card for a colour inspiration. The two tone flowers were create by first inking in Petal Pink Ink and then using a Dauber to dab on some Sweet Sorbet ink.
This one below features the 2022-2024 In Colors which we farewell too. What colour will you be sad to see leave?

We say Farewell today to the Two-Tone Flora Stamps and Dies. I have LOVED these ones. Yes another 2-step stamp set. Maybe that’s way. But the colouring you can get with these stamps are so lovely. And the dies… Well what about they detailed background die. So gorgeous and delicate.
Let’s see some past projects.
This one below a piece of white card was blended with Gorgeous Grape ink with it darker at the bottom and lighter at the top. Then the detailed Diecut was added over the top. It creates a soft, subtle background.
On this one below I diecut the detailed die and then added it to the back of a rectangle diecut frame. Any overhanging edges of the detailed diecut was trimmed off.
Simple flowers and leaves with the white card diecut with one of the Elegant Borders Dies. These border dies are available as an Online Exclusives set and can often be missed. There are 4 in the set and each one is lovely.
Both the Two Tone Flora Stamp Set and the Dies are reduced at 50% off. Crazy!
The Two-Tone Flora Stamps are reduced to $20.50. See them -> HERE.
The Two-Tone Flora Dies are reduced to $34.00. See them -> HERE.
If you need any assistance in your creating or need to order. Head to my store at the links above or Contact me directly.
The Color and Contour Stamp Set has been one of my favourite stamp set. I have had lots of fun with it over the past 2-3 years since it has been around.
I’m sad to see it go BUT it makes way for some other lovely stamps.
Let’s have a little reminiscing of some of the projects I have created with it.
This is a gorgeous set. It’s a 2 Step set which makes it easy to add the “fill-in” image to colour it. I like that option. You can colour it with your Stampin’ Blends or Pencils though.
Do you want to grab this one? If you do you need to be quick.
The stamp set is reduced to $22.20 AUD. Which is awesome! There are the Scalloped Contours Dies but they are not available now.

For our recent Onstage event in Melbourne I created a Flip Z-Fold Card for my swap. Swapping is great fun to give and receive the cards. It’s always good to see the different ideas others use – and to meet with other Demonstrators too.
I created 3 coloured versions.
The Gorgeous Grape.
The Berry Burst version.
The Highland Heather version.
The Gorgeous Grape and the Highland Heather version uses the Perennial Lavender Designer Series Paper with the Painted Lavender Dies. The Berry Burst version uses the Delightful Floral Designer Series Paper with the Bough Punch. The sentiment for all 3 is from the Translucent Floral Stamp Set.
So what colour do you like?
I thought I would put together a video to show you how to make one yourself.
Hope you get to make one yourself.

Do you love the Take Your Pick Tool? It’s like a Swiss army knife for crafters. 🙂
Wednesday’s WOW! #160 – Let’s look at just some of the features of the Take Your Pick Tool.
About the Take Your Pick Tool:
It is a Multipurpose Pickup and Precision tool simplifies some of the fiddly crafting tasks.
The Tacky Putty end easily picks up sequins, paper accents, and other small objects; twist to dispense more putty. There is also a Putty Refill that you can replace on the tool when you run out. AND TIP: Don’t sit there fiddling and twisting the end when you are not noticing. Ask me how I know …
The other end has 2 changeable, double-ended tips with paper piercer, mini spatula, small stylus, and large stylus. See I said it was a the Swiss Army Knife.
Here is the Take Your PickTool plus the extra Attachments.
There is the Take Your Pick Die Brush attachment. This will help remove those tiny little diecuts from the dies when diecutting.
There is also the Take Your Pick Crafter Tips. These tips include:
The Hobby Blade for precision cutting.
A Double-Ended Pick Tip for piercing or removing pieces from intricate die cuts.
And a Rotary Perforating Tip for cutting perforated patterns.
These tips fit onto the Take Your Pick Tool to give you even more crafting tools to work with! Simply remove a tip from the tool and insert a different tip for the task you need.
What a versatile Tool! It certainly makes some of those crafting tasks that much easier.
I don’t have a Green Thumb. I love plants. I admire them BUT I forget to water them and I don’t know all the nutrients they need. I do like this Planted Paradise stamp set though. I can create cards with lovely potted plants and not worry about killing them.
This card was one I made for a class last week. It was a ‘Thoughts of You’ Class. It’s nice to send out Thinking of You cards to let others know you care.
The paper is from the Inked Botanicals Designer Series Paper pack.
It’s a simple card. Having the loop of ribbon between the white circle and the Copper Clay Circle. It just adds a little variation. Ribbon is great for added texture too. The white card is embossed with one of the Basics Embossing Folder packs.
If you are local why not come and join us at class sometime. We would love to have you along. Look out for upcoming classes or contact me and I can let you know. Most of my classes are available By Mail option too and you can make them at home in your own time.
Have a great day,
Jenny

The Zinnia 3D Embossing Folder is a large on at 15.2cm x 15.9cm or 6″ x 6-1/4″. It has beautiful images of Zinnia flowers which would create great backgrounds or try some different techniques.
Here are some pretty samples.
