Enduring Beauty

On my Tuesday night ‘Live with Michele’ I created this card using Stampin’ Up!® Enduring Beauty Stamp. This stamp is part of a Enduring Beauty Bundle, the bundle includes stamps, dies and masks.

Measurements Used…

	Colour	Imperial/Letter	Metric/A4
Card Base	Basic White	4 ¼ x 11”, score @ 5 ½”	10.5 x 29.9cm, score @ 14.9cm
Card Mat	Lost Lagoon	4 x 5¼”	10 x 14.4cm
Card Front Base	Basic White	3 ⅞ x 5 ⅛”	9.7 x 14.1cm
Card Insert Mat	Lost Lagoon	4 x 5¼”	10 x 14.4cm
Card Insert	Basic White	3 ⅞ x 5 ⅛”	9.7 x 14.1cm
Sentiment	Berry Burst	½ x 4¼”	1.3 x 10.5cm
Sentiment Mat	Lost Lagoon	⅝ x 4¼”	1.6 x 10.5cm

This is a simple card to create, masking an area off area approx 6 x 8cm (2¼ x 3½”) using masking paper or ‘Post it Note Paper’. You want the masked area to be smaller than the stamp image, so that it has some ‘black and white’ image. Make sure the outer edge of the card front is covered so ink doesn’t colour the areas you want clean.

Using a Blending Brush, start with Fresh Freesia Ink and brush in a circular motion down 2/3rds of card front. From top down add Berry Burst to the top third of the card. Blending the Berry Burst into the Fresh Freesia. This also hid where I added too much ink in the Fresh Freesia (see Video).

Working from bottom up add Lost Lagoon blending it into the Fresh Freesia. Remove the masking paper.

Using Memento Tuxedo Black Ink, stamp the Enduring Beauty image over the top.

Flight & Airy Fun Fold

Published on February 4, 2024February 4, 2024 by Michele Jutrisa Category: Fun Fold, Let's Craft Together, Sale-A-Bration, Uncategorized, Video

Our theme this month for the Let’s Craft Together Blog Hop is a ‘Designer Series Paper Challenge’ by Kayla Renee and I am using the Flight & Airy Designer Series Paper by Stampin’ Up!®. I love this DSP , it has this lovely mix of bright/modern and a traditional softness. At the moment it seems to be my go to paper.

Unfortunately it’s not a paper you can purchase, but you can earn it for FREE when you spend $90 or more. The Flight & Airy Designer Series Paper is one of the many products in the Sale-A-Bration Catalogue

Instagram Story by Srusht Patil showing Tutorial of Pop Card .

I saw this card on Instagram a couple of weeks ago and decided to give it a try. The card made by Srusht is a large card format so I have reduced the measurements to fit with a standard card. I have made a few changes in using less DSP to suite what I was wanting to create.

Jungle Pals

Published on January 20, 2024January 20, 2024 by Michele Jutrisa Category: Birthday, Blends, Ink Blending, Live with Michele, Sale-A-Bration, Uncategorized

I had so much fun yesterday on ‘Live with Michele’ creating this fun card. I used 3 NEW products from the Stampin’ Up! ® Sale-A-Bration Jan- Feb 2024 Catalogue – Jungle Pals Stamp Set, Heartfelt Hellos Stamp Set and Jungle Pals Dies.

These products are FREE when you purchase from any of our catalogues or from the Online Exclusives.

Spend $90 and get the Jungle Pals Stamp Set
Spend $180 and get the Jungle Pals Dies
Spend $90 and get the Heartfelt Hellos Stamp Set

I coloured the Toucan using Stampin’ Blends. Did you know Toucan’s come in all different colours? I researched them on Google and in the end looked up cartoon images for the Toucan. He was fun to colour!

The colours I used were…

poppy Parade
Parakeet Party
Azure Afternoon
Daffodil Delight
Pumpkin Pie
Basic Black

The back ground for this card was coloured using Granny Apple Green, Garden Green, Azure Afternoon and Blueberry Bushel inks with a Blending Brush.

I wanted this card to look lush and bright, with lots of layers of different greens creating depth and flowers in bright colours.

After the Live had wrapped up I decided to add the Black Adhesive Backed Sparkle Gems, as I felt it just need something to finish the flowers…to add a little bit of ‘POP!’

Measurements Used…

	Colour	Imperial/Letter	Metric/A4
Card Base	Granny Apple Green	4 ¼ x 11”, score @ 5 ½”	10.5 x 29.9cm, score @ 14.9cm

Flowers	Mellon Mambo	Scraps

Stippled Roses

Published on January 17, 2024January 17, 2024 by Michele Jutrisa Category: Birthday, Live with Michele, Uncategorized

Today’s card I have used the Stippled Roses Bundle from the Stampin’ Up! ® Jan – April Mini Catalogue. This is a beautiful detailed stamp with coordinating Dies that not only cut the images out but extra elements as well.

The Softly Stippled Designer Series Paper used in this card can be found in the Jan – Feb Sale-A-Bration Catalogue. When you purchase the Stippled Roses Bundle for $94.50 (AUD) you can get the Softly Stippled DSP for FREE!

I chose to keep this card all the same in colour to also play on the same tone Designer Series Paper, but you could very easily add colour to the Roses and Leaves to change the look completely.

By adding the Vellum die cut leaves under the Pebble Path die cut leaves it softens the look, making it look just that little bit lighter and lacy.

Below is a link to my YouTube Video showing how I created this card.

Measurements Used…

	Colour	Imperial/Letter	Metric/A4
Card Base	Pebble Path	4 ¼ x 11”, score @ 5 ½”	10.5 x 29.9cm, score @ 14.9cm

Bee Mine

Published on January 15, 2024January 15, 2024 by Michele Jutrisa Category: Scrapbook, Uncategorized

Today I am taking part in ‘Scrapbook Sunday Blog Hop’ for the first time. Joining in with some amazingly talented Stampin’ Up!® Demonstrators from around the world. We are happy that you can join us and hope that we can Inspire you to make creations of your own. You will find the Links to the others participating below…..I hope you enjoy!

For my page I decided to use the Bee Mine Suite from the Jan – April 2024 Stampin’ Up!® Mini Catalogue.

The inspiration for this layout I found on Page Maps, but I did change it up a bit to make it mine.

How I created my page…

I found 4 photo’s of Joe taken at though out the years we have been together…From 1993 to now, he hasn’t changed much!

For this layout I have used layers of the Bee Mine 12 x 12″ Designer Series Paper, tearing the bottom too layers for some texture. The title I used the Alphabet A La Mode, cut from Basic Black and adhered to a Deckled Circle cut from Designer Series Paper using the Deckled Circle Dies.

The journaling box was die cut using the Nested Essential Dies and tucked under the matted photos. Behind the journaling I also added two die cut tags also cut from the Bee Mine Designer Series Paper using the Tailor Made Tag Dies.

I then added some Bee’s fussy cut from the paper.

I’m really please with the way this layout came together, as it was a last minute decision to participate.

Thank you for stopping by and reading my Blog. I hope you have enjoyed my projects & that you’re inspired to get crafty!

Flighty & Airy Mini Album

This little album is great for a gift or as a Brag Book for a first time Grand Parent.

Measurements Used…

This album will hold 5 cropped photo’s or if you want to add more I would suggest adding a spacer (thin Chipboard – only use thin or two layers of Cardstock) in between the pages, to allow for decoration and photos on opposite pages.

An album like this you can use lots of srapes and left over bits from other Projects
Ink around the pages for a shaddy or aged effect
Use retired Ribbons for the spine
Spacer – cut 2cm x 10cm
Not shown on Video
- add Cardstock and DSP to back cover, measurements given above.

Artistically Inked

Published on January 4, 2024December 28, 2023 by Michele Jutrisa Category: Birthday, Let's Craft Together, Uncategorized

For this month’s Let’s Craft Together Blog Hop, Nancy has set a wonderful ‘Picture Inspiration Challenge’ as the theme. Drawing inspiration from the colors in the provided picture, I created this card card using the stunning Artistic Dies and Artistically Inked Stamps by Stampin’ Up! ®.

This card is simple to create by using the Artistic Dies as the focal point and then colouring the different flowers & leaves in what ever colours you want.

When blending the colours from flower to flower or flower to leaf, don’t worry about when one starts or finishes. Just let the colours blend together.

The ‘Happy Birthday’ Sentiment is from the Artistically Inked Stamps.
