FAVOURITES CARDS FROM 2021!

Today I wanted to share just some of my favourites creations from the 2021. It was hard to narrow it down.

A special Congratulations card for my son on his engagement. I think this was the highlight of the year when my son – and now daughter-in-law were married!

See the card -> HERE.

A Pop Out Swing Card with Hey Chick. This was a fun card to make. Try it with any of your stamps.

See the card and the video to create your own Pop Our Swing Card -> HERE.

5 Ways with Pretty Papers. Lots of ideas to use your papers that you like to stash right. 😉

This was a popular post and video. We all like to use our pretty papers.

See more of the cards and the video -> HERE.

Color and Contour Bundle. This card was for my Catalogue launch in June. I still think this is my favourite bundle.

See the post and also the cute Party Puffins card -> HERE.

One of my labours of love in this Concertina card for my gorgeous girl for her 21st birthday.

5 Ways with the Merriest Moments stamps and dies. This video has been extremely popular on Youtube.

Catch the cards and the video -> HERE.

Another popular one and I know many have followed along with the video and used the template to create these cards. Create 4 cards with 1 piece of 6″x6″ paper.

See the earlier post and the video -> HERE.

I had so much fun making this project. It has been very popular too. A Star Table Favour.

See how to create one -> HERE.

Perhaps you have had other projects I have shared that you have loved. I would love to hear about it.

I share lots of other projects in my Newsletters too. You can subscribe to my newsletter by clicking on the tab in the right hand column on my blog.

Have a great rest of 2021. Thanks for all your support in this challenging year.

Back with more creating very soon,

CREATE A PINWHEEL TOWER CARD + VIDEO!

For our Friday Flicks today I show you how to create a Pinwheel Tower Card.

You might have seen these around. I have been fascinated with them and wanted to have a go. They are so easy – and they look so cool. You will want to try one yourself.

I have used the Tidings of Christmas Designer Series Paper and the Tidings and Trimmings Bundle.

Here are each of the other panels.

It can easily fold flat. This particular size is too large for a standard envelope but you can create your own OR cut the panels 2cm (3/4″) thinner and it should work.

I have the video below for you or it is now on Youtube to view. I give the measurements for them in Metric and Imperial but don’t stress I have the measurements below.

PINWHEEL TOWER CARD MEASUREMENTS

There are a number of versions around. This one was based on Karen’s card -> HERE.

Tower Base – 17cm x 14.8cm 7″ x 6″ Scored at 2.5cm, 5cm, 7.5cm, 10cm (1″, 2″, 3″, 4″)

Panels – 3 @ 7cm x 14.8cm 3″ x 6″

Designer Series Paper Pieces – 4 @ 14.4cm x 6.6cm 5 3/4″ x 2 3/4″

– 4 @ 14.4cm x 4.1cm 5 3/4″ x 1 3/4″

Hope you get to make one yourself.

The Tidings of Christmas paper is one that is reduced at the moment in the Paper Sale. This finishes on Monday. So not long to save 15% on it.

You can find it in my store -> HERE.

Have a great day,

Jenny

INSPIRE.CREATE.CHALLENGE #095 WITH SWEET STOCKINGS PAPER!

I have new products …That’s always exciting! 🙂

To warm up to them I looked up a sketch to play along with. The Inspire.Create.Challenge #095 email arrived in my inbox so thought I would have a go. So I made 2 cards with it.

This is the sketch. You can find the details on their blog -> HERE.

These are the cards I created. Both used the upcoming Sweet Stockings Designer Series Paper which you will be able to order from August 3rd. It’s such cute paper!

That cat doesn’t look too impressed but then how many cats would be impressed with deer antlers on it’s head. 🙂

The sentiment and santa hat is from the stamp set Sweet Little Stockings. The santa hat was coloured with the Stampin’ Blends.

This card below I flipped the sketch. The sentiment and the leaf diecut is from the Tidings and Trimmings Bundle which is available now in the Annual catalogue. The shiny ribbon is the Gold Shimmer Ribbon which will be in the Mini Catalogue.

Simple cards but then what more do you need with this sketch. Let the paper make a statement.

Speaking of the new Mini Catalogue.

If you are in Australia and would love a paper copy sent to you then let me know in a comment or email. They are heading out in the mail now.

Have a great week,

Jenny
