Stampin' Up! For The Record Simply Scrappin'

Whilst the house is empty Jelly will play - yey, the boys are both at school all day today and so I am going to be in the Room of Craft all day! Here is my first creation, I've done two 12"x12" scrap layouts featuring my Mini Beasts and this years' school photos:

Everything on both pages are elements from For The Record Simply Scrappin' Kit.

 Here's the opposite page:

I adore the photo of them together, they truly are the best of friends - well when they're not arguing!

Here are the pages together:

 

I love how the kit gives so much to helping design the layout. Instructions come in the kit but I've pretty much done my own thing. It's fab as most elements are self adhesive too.

The 12x12 card stock has a lovely spotty pattern on it and the school style papers are great for getting the Markers out on for a spot of journaling.

So fancy having a go? Why not book yourself a place at my next scrapbook club? You'll get everything you need to make these two layouts - or your own design of course, just bring photos, your paper trimmer and glue!

Wednesday 17th April

7.30pm - Nottingham

Cost £10 - to be paid in full by Tuesday 9th April please.

Stampin' Up! Last 2 days to Sale-a-Brate with me

So - it's week three and Jelly pretty much hasn't left the house due to the mini beasts having a variety of lurgies - the latest being Chicken Pox. 

Well, I managed to escape the house on Saturday evening to visit Sarah and all her lovely friends at her Stampin' Up! party and this is the Make and Take I demonstrated for Sarah and her guests to create:

 We used Crumb Cake Card for the bade and then a strip of Sycamore Street Designer Paper. This is a Sale-a-bration exclusive product and you can only get it with a spend of £45 on Stampin' Up! product BEFORE close of business tomorrow and then it will be gone .........forever!!!

Next we added a length of Indigo Island Satin Ribbon (also a sale-a-bration item) and die cut ovals with Oval Famelits in Island Indigo and Whisper White Card.

We made an ink pad with a few baby wipes and re-inkers in Island Indigo, Summer Star Fruit and Pool Party and used the Sale-a-bration stamp set Bloomin' Marvelous to decorate the white oval before sticking them down. Then we got all glimmery and shiny and pretty by spritzing our creations using Smooch Spritz in Vanilla Shimmer. Great fun! 

Here are a few photos from the party:

Stampin' Up! Madison Avenue meets Razzleberry Splash

Mmm bliss, Major Mayhem is feeling much better and has been snuggled up on the Sofa watching Star Wars this morning, allowing me to escape to the Room of Craft for a while and create. And create I have:

 

So I made this gift box and card set. The boxes are Kraft and come flat in a packet of four for just £2.75 and there are so many different ways to decorate them. I love them to bits and could make one a day if I had an endless supply! I've used Rich Razzleberry, Crumb Cake, Silver Glimmer Card and Pool Party. I am going to be so sad to see Pool Party retire in a few months so expect to see me using lots of it in the meantime!

The card is 4" square and I've layered up the card and Silver Glimer Paper. TIP: to stick layers onto the Silver Glimmer Paper, I punch holes or shapes in it to use on different projects and pop the glue in the space punched out! I've used the Sale-A-Bration Vine Street Embossing Folder on the Pool Party card.

  

The flower is made with card stock stickers from the Stampin' Up! Razzleberry Splash Simply Scrappin' Kit - you'll be seeing a lot more of that kit from me very soon too! I've added one of the Pool Party Buttons (FREE with an order of £45 or more in the next 8 days!)

 

The sentiment is from Itty Bitty Banners - also FREE during Stampin' Up! Sale-A-Bration promotion and you can also buy the matching Framelit Dies too. I've simply cut them out and done a spot of folding to create a bit of lift!

Finally the box:

Decorated in the same way with a tag made using Pool Party Ribbon and some more flowers from the Razzleberry Splash Kit. The flowers around the sides of the box are stamped from Madison Avenue in Rich Razzleberry, cut out and stuck down.

Keeping my fingers crossed the Spark doesn't have to work tomorrow so I can smuggle in more crafting and then I have Sarah's Stampin' Up! party to look forward too tomorrow night - yey!

Stampin' Up! Happy Hello Mini Album Tutorial

A while ago I shred some projects I'd made with the Stampin' Up! Happy Hello card kit that you can earn for FREE during Sale-A-Bration (ends 22nd March!). I've had so many requests for the tutorial to make the mini album that I've done a tutorial which includes all FOUR projects:

What a bargain at only £2.50 for an emailed PDF with oodles of colour photos and clear instructions to make all of these - with just one Happy Hello Card Kit and extra card stock.

Available via my side bar now.

Stampin' Up! Vintage Verses

So - snow, sunshine, blizzards or all three? Weird isn't it? Anyhoo, today I have another card created using the faux chalkboard technique.

It's a cute 4" square card using Regal Rose and Basic Black card. the sentiment is from the now very close tor retiring Sale-A-Bration stamp set Vintage Verses. You can still earn this set for FREE with a purchase of £45 on Stampin' Up! products with me, but you need to hurry as the promotion ends on 22nd March!

I've added some faux stitching too and a garland of hearts punched out from some scraps using the Small Heart Punch. 

I'd hoped to finish my latest tutorial for you by today but the lurgy is lurking in the house of Jelly so fingers crossed for tomorrow!

Stampin' Up! Amazing Family

A scheduled post from me today as I know I'm going to be busy. I've made another faux chalkboard style card cased from the Stampin' Up! Spring / Summer Seasonal Catalogue using Amazing Family stamp set:

The matching border used the Amazing Accent wheel - if you've not tried these yet they are a great way to add detail to your projects and you only need to buy one handle and then try as many different wheels as you like (standard size). I rolled this one over a Versmark ink pad and then heat embossed with Whisper White Embossing Powder.

Back soon with a mini album tutorial for you!

Stampin' Up! Papaya Collage

So really - snow forecast? Please make it go away as I have a Stampin' Up! party to get to tonight and my hostess is very excited!!!

Good to be back to my blog, the miniest mini beast has been poorly all week and I've been nurse Mummy. Thankfully Blake is back in good form and normal service has resumed in the House of Jelly.

Yesterday was my Father in laws Birthday and this is the card I made for him from Hubs and me:

It's a simple card using Crumb Cake Card as the base with the bird and hat stamped in Always Artichoke with Clear Embossing Powder over the top. The blue detail is Midnight Muse ink coloured with a Blender Pen. My FIL has a bit of a thing for birds (the garden variety!) and we like to take rib him about it!

Can't wait to spend some time blog hopping and catching up on what you've all been up to.

Stampin' Up! Amazing Family

Have you made your Mother's Day cards yet? Here in the UK it's that special day on Sunday and I can safely share this card with you as it's for my Mother In law and she doesn't look at my blog!

 The sentiment is Amazing Family from the Stampin' Up! Spring / Summer Seasonal Catalogue. I adore the font and you also get a couple of flourishes and other family names are included in there too.

I've used a combination of Melon Mambo and Pretty in Pink and to add some glamour the FREE Silver Glimmer card I earned from Stampin' Up! through our Sale-A-Bration promotion. You can get it or a choice of 16 other products absolutely FREE too if you place and order of £45 of Stampin' Up! products with me before 22nd March.

I out my Oval Framelits to good use, they cut through the Glimmer Card as easily as they do through normal card stock.

I've shown you a close up so you can see the heat embossing I've done on the butterfly (from Papillon Potpourri). It's Whisper White on Melon Mambo card to contrast the Melon Mambo on Whisper White I used for the sentiment.

The butterfly stamps coordinate perfectly with both butterfly punches in the Main and Spring / Summer Stampin' Up! catalogues.

Right I must go, I have parties to prep for and my monthly Craft Club tomorrow night too. Can't wait to get together with the ladies in the club.

Hugs
