Chain Card Swap Blog Hop – Sharni

Published on April 15, 2024April 10, 2024 by Michele Jutrisa

Back in October 2023 I joined a group of Stampin’ Up!® Demonstrators to take part in a ‘Card swap with a Twist – Chain card Swap.

How does this work?

The swap is similar to an old fashioned chain letter or I would say…”Chinese Whispers with Cards’

We were given a list of names – 11 in total (not including myself)
Create a simple card
Send to first person on the list
Wait to receive a card from someone…
‘CASE’ that card and send it to the 2nd person on your list
Repeat until all people on the list has received a card

Now this is the fun part….When you CASE the card you received, it’s your interpretation of the received card. Just like ‘Chinese Whispers’ you may not end up with what you originally designed

Round 3 O Holly Night

I created this card after receiving a card from Nancy.

O Holly Night was a beautiful Suite to use, it came with 2 packs of Designer Series Paper – O Holly Night and Shinning Brightly Specialty Paper.

The focal point of this card is the Nativity Scene. For this I used the Deckled Circle Dies and 2 layers of the O Holly Night Designer Series Paper, with the die cut Nativity scene die cut from Basic Black cardstock.

Follow the Hop around and see how these creations changed from start to finish…you might be surprised to see how these cards finished up!

Round 5 Merriest Trees

I am so pleased that Merriest Trees is staying with us, I had so much fun playing with it.

When casing this card I used the elements of the 2 squares and made it 2 tags, I also added an extra layer of Designer Series Paper underneath the top layer. I love the Tailor Made Tags and will be sad to see them go…(I might hand onto them a bit longer)

A Bush Christmas

Published on December 4, 2023December 3, 2023 by Michele Jutrisa

Our theme this month for the Let’s Craft Together Blog Hop by Ann Alexander is a ‘Theme Challenge – A Bush Christmas’ .

I love this challenge, for the last month it has been bouncing around in my head, working out what I could do. I love Australian Native Flowers and Stampin’ Up! ® Everlasting Beauty Stamp Set was perfect for this challenge using the stunning Waratah to make my focal point.

I also used the Magical Meadow Dies for the other elements with the Waratah. Even though they are not technically Australian fauna I tried to colour them to represent the Australian Bush. The Holly was added, because what is Christmas without a bit of Holly.

Joy of Noel – Live with Michele

Published on November 25, 2023November 25, 2023 by Michele Jutrisa

Yesterday on ‘Live with Michele’ I played with this simple and fun card…using the Stampin’ Up! ® Joy Of Noel Stamps and Dies Bundle. It was like playing with building blocks.

If you don’t have this bundle grab it now as it is on the ‘Last Chance Sale’ , while stocks last.

Below I have added measurements and a couple of handy tips, also the Youtube Video if you missed my Live. A list of all the supplies I used is also listed where you can just add everything to your Shopping Cart.

The September–December 2023 Mini Catalogue is retiring soon! It’s bittersweet to say goodbye to a Stampin’ Up! catalogue, but we’re looking forward to all the new products on their way—and we hope you are, too!

From 21 November 2023–3 January 2024, you can stock up on your favourite seasonal products and save up to 60% on essential craft supplies! So, what are you waiting for? Start shopping and selling! After all, a selection of Last Chance Products will only be available while supplies last.

Measurements Used…

	Colour	Imperial/Letter	Metric/A4
Card Base	Basic White	5⅛ x 10¼”, score at 5⅛”	13 x 26cm, score @13cm
Card Mat	Basic Black	4⅞ x 4⅞”	12.5 x 12.5cm
Card Front Base	Basic White	4 ¾ x 4¾”	12 x 12cm
Noel	Silver Glimmer Paper – Adheisive	2¾ x 2¾”	7 x 7cm
	Berry Burst	2¾ x 2¾”	7 x 7cm
	Granny Apple Green	2¾ x 2¾”	7 x 7cm
	Daffodil Delight	2¾ x 2¾”	7 x 7cm
	Orchid Oasis	2¾ x 2¾”	7 x 7cm
Sentiment	Basic Black	1¼ x 4”	3 x 10 cm

The above Conversion from Metric to Imperial is as close to what I used (Metric)…these measurements may change depending on Envelope size. I used a Stampin’ Up! Square Envelope (Discontinued) as my guide and it was 14cm Square. You could only use this size or larger as the Dies control the size.
Dry fit your letters in the order you want before glues, as you saw in my video just changing placement of squares messed up my placement.

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

Christmas Baubles – Live with Michele

Published on November 4, 2023November 4, 2023 by Michele Jutrisa

Yesterdays ‘Live’ was fun….it’s always fun when you can play with ink and water….Don’t you think?

I have been watching the reels on my Instagram and there has been a few people who have been creating these stunning Christmas baubles using watercolour paint and watercolour paper. As the short reel below.

View this post on Instagram

A post shared by Mana (@manajoypaperco)

I have taken this idea and using Stampin’ Up!® Fluid 100 Watercolour Paper and the Inks to create my version of these baubles. I created my circle using a Stampin’ Up!® container and dipping it into watered down ink on a block. What other shapes do you have at home you could use…..How about ‘cookie cutters’…I hope you have fun creating some of these like I did.

With the added use of Joy of Noel Bundle and Country Wreath Dies, it just finished off my cards.

There is a YouTube Video below showing how I created my card.

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	DSP	4 x 5 ¼”	10 x 14.4cm
Card Front	Fluid 100 Watercolour Paper	3 ½ x 5”	9 x 12.5cm
Card Insert	Basic White	4 x 5 ¼”	10 x 14.4cm
Card Insert Strip	DSP	½ x 4 ¼”	1 x 10.5cm
Stamping & Diecutting	Fluid 100 Watercolour Paper	3 ½ x 5”	9 x 12.5cm

The card below was my try out card with a smaller glass for my circle.

Oh Holly Night – Live with Michele

Published on August 23, 2023September 23, 2023 by Michele Jutrisa

Last night on ‘Live with Michele’ I created this Fun Fold – Faux Step Card, using the ‘O Holy Night Suite’. This suite you will find in the Sept – Dec Mini Catalogue by Stampin’ Up!®.

I saw this card created by Mary Deatherage, Mary used the Trucking Along Bundle to create her fun card. Which you can see HERE. Mary has great diagrams on the scoring lines, other wise you will see on my attached video, below.

O Holy Night is a BIG suite of products, for this card I have only used half of it. For me it really depicts what Christmas is all about with the Nativity scene depicting the birth of Jesus.

The Designer Series Paper, O Holy Night, has 3 sheets of scenes depicting desert, towns and night sky. They are 12 x 12″ (30 x 30cm), great for both cards and scapbooking. The only thing is you need to plan out what sections you want to use on your card and cut wisely. With my card below I used half a sheet, which left me with a few off cuts I will try to use on other projects.

O Holy Night Suite by Stampin' Up! from the 2023 Sept - Dec Mini Catalogue. This is a Faux Side Step Card

Measurements Used…

These measurements may have changed from original, I’m sorry about that. Went to fix a small error and lost the lot, so had to rewrite these. Sorry for any inconvenience.

	Colour	Imperial/Letter	Metric/A4
Card Base	Night of Navy	5 ½” x 8”, score along long edge @ 1”, 2”, 5”	14.9 x 20cm, score along long edge @2.5, 5,12.5cm
Card Base Front	DSP	⅝ x 5¼”	2.2 x 14.6cm
Card Base Back	DSP	2⅝ x 5¼”	7.2 x 14.6cm
Card Front	Night of Navy	3 x 6”, scored at 4¼”	8.5 x 15.5cm, score at 10.5cm
Card Front	DSP	2⅝ x 4⅛”	8.2 x 10.2cm
Sentiment	Very Vanilla	2½ x 2½”	6 x 6cm
Back Panel	Very Vanilla	2⅝ x 5¼”	7.2 x 14.6cm
Strip	DSP	½ x 5¼”	1.3 x 14.6cm
Nativity Scene & Camel	Basic Black	4¼ x 3¼”	8.5 x 10.5

How to…

Cut all cardstock and score
Designer Series Paper – All pieces are cut from a half sheet of DSP 15 x 30cm (6 x 12″), you need to plan out were you will be cutting first. Cut each piece in order as below, see video.
1. Cut the Card Base Strip DSP first – this is so you can cut in one strip.
2. Card Front Panel – Decide how much ground to sky you want to use. Cut your depth 10.2cm (4⅛”) and then work out the width for star placement on your card front.
3. Remaining DSP- cut Card Base and writing panel strip
Stamp sentiment onto Very Vanilla using Night of Navy Ink Pad and die cut using stitched square from Stylish Shapes
Adhere the Card Base DSP strip to the small mountain fold and Card Base DSP to larger mountain fold
Adhere the Card Front DSP to Card Front.
Add glue to the back of the card front…ONLY on the bottom 2cm ( 1″), height of the small mountain.
Fold card and adhere the back section of the Card Front to the back of the Card Base, again only approx 1cm (½”)
Add sentiment to card base.
Attach Nativity Scene with mini dimensionals
Writing panel
- Attach DSP strip along the bottom
- Adhere the camel, being careful on the amount of glue used.
- Attach to the back of the Card Base.
Add Wink of Stella to star.

I love Gift Card Holders, as my boys have grown up into young men living away from home it makes it so easy now to just give them a Gift Card for Birthdays, Christmas or just because you want to.

But how do you wrap them to make them special. I like to decorate them , make them special.

This gift holder I CASED from one I found on Pinterest and I found one by Studio 490 Now she made hers using a large tag…I had a look at all our supplies and thought ‘Yep” I can do that….so using Boughs of Holly and a few added extras this is what I came up with. Below you will find a link to all the products I used.

Live with Michele – Boughs Of Holly

Published on October 22, 2022October 22, 2022 by Michele Jutrisa

Did you catch “Live with Michele” this week…I made a card using the Boughs Of Holly Designer Series Paper and Hope and Peace Stamp Set.

Hope and Peace stamps has a wonderful collection of Christian Sentiments. These can be used on the front of your card as well as inside your card. They can be teamed up with different papers and other stamp sets.
