Hello Fall!

Posted on October 7, 2014 by Stamp with Jini

Well there was a nip in the air yesterday morning as I went to the grocery store – it was the first time I pulled on a light weight jacket this fall. Aaaahhh fall – the cool nights and cooler days. It will be almost 80 here today – so fall is such a mixed bag! It’s a good day for painting doors I guess – I just need to get motivated and my stamps are calling me. LOL

Todays card is one I stamped after looking out the window for a bit yesterday. With the wind, the leaves were rolling across the yard.

This card is clean and simple and I love the technique of using the darker layer and then the smaller Whisper White card on the top. It allows for that pop of color without having to create an inside panel for writing.

I stamped this card using Tangelo Twist and Crushed Curry – two great fall colors. I used the Bermuda Bay for the sentiment and base. A bit untraditional, but I love the color. So what do you think?

For All Things & World Card Making Day

Posted on October 6, 2014 by Stamp with Jini

Did you know this past Saturday was World Card Making Day? Well it was, and so today I thought I’d show you one of the 12 cards we stamped on Saturday during my card making event. Everyone who attended was able to make 12 cards for all different kinds of occasions.

This card is made using the For All Things stamp set . I love the colors of fall and as I sit here looking out my window I can already see the Crushed Curry color showing up in the trees across the street. We’ve had a real cold snap here in North Georgia this past week so I’m sure there will be a lot more color soon and the leaf watchers will be heading for the mountains to enjoy the fall color.

Here is a picture from the World Card Making Day event on Saturday.

We had a lot of fun visiting while we stamped together. I’m so blessed to have such a great group of ladies!

Amazing Colored Glass

Posted on August 26, 2014 by Stamp with Jini

This past Sunday I held my Holiday Catalog Premiere – I love these events since they give me a chance to pamper you, my customers. After all I couldn’t do and share what I love without you! So I thought I’d share some of the projects for those of you who were not able to attend.

Here is a picture of the snack table. (I’m sorry to say I forgot to take pictures of everyone though out the event since we were having such a good time – But luckily I did take some before everyone got here. LOL)

Today’s project is one that I made to decorate the snack table. I came across some fall flowers while out and about one day and couldn’t resist them. Don’t you love the Blackberry Bliss mums?

When I got them home I realized I wanted to make a vase that would pull out the Blackberry Bliss color in the arrangement. Purple has always been a favorite of mine and I just love our new In Color! So here is what I came up with.

So what do you think? I just love the little Autumn Wooden Elements (135846) from the Holiday Catalog that I dangled down the front of the vase. I’m finding all kinds of uses for them! (They aren’t available yet but you can begin ordering from the Holiday Catalog Thursday, August 28th)

Want to know how I added the color to this vase? Well you’re in luck I’ve made a video tutorial just for you – I’ve named this project Amazing Colored Glass! since I think it is amazing what we can do with our paper crafting supplies – hope you enjoy it.

Here you go…. my Amazing Colored Glass Video Tutorial

Just a few tips I forgot to mention while taping.

First, you’ll want to let your vase dry really well – it may take a few days depending on how thick your color layer is.

Second, your color layer can scratch. So if your doing a vase like this, you may want to loosly line the inside with tissue paper before adding your flowers, etc.

So what do you think? Why not leave me a comment and let me know?

I’ll be sharing more about the Holiday Catalog Premiere tomorrow so stop back by then. And If you weren’t able to pick up your copy of our NEW Holiday Catalog during my Catalog Premiere I’ll be happy to send one to you. Just contact me and include your name, address, phone number and email address and I’ll be happy to mail one to you.

P.S…. If you are a current customer of mine (which means you’ve ordered from me in the last 60 days) yours is on the way to you!
