Facebook Live Friday – Forever Blossoms

Published on August 22, 2021August 23, 2021 by Michele Jutrisa

Hi and welcome today to my Blog.

Friday’s Facebook live I delved into my stamps and pulled out an old favorite Forever Blossoms and Cherry Blossoms Dies. We tend to play with them when we first get them but then something new comes along and they get forgotten.

Looking at the Cherry Blossoms Dies I relised that I had never used all the blossom dies. I had fun cutting and colouring each of the blossoms, petal edges brushed with Blushing Bride and a touch of green from the Soft Pastels in the flower centers. The stamens cut from Mango Melody and sponged with Cajun Craze.

Batik Boutique – One Page Wonder

Published on June 19, 2021June 19, 2021 by Michele Jutrisa

Hi and welcome today to my Blog.

Have you ever tried making your own Designer Series Paper or One Sheet Wonder…I have only given this a try a few times. I think these cards turned out really well.

I was inspired by a fellow stamper – Northern Stamper and a card she did using the Batik Boutique Stamps by Stampin’ Up! ® and a range of Blue Stampin’ Pads.

I decided to create this card as a One Sheet Wonder – just a basic one, where a sheet of A4 Basic White Cardstock is stamped to create your DSP and then cut into 4 to create 4 cards.

I only used 3 colours- Misty Moonlight, Balmy Blue and Pool Party for both the stamping and cardstock. But then added an extra ‘POP’ with the Gold and Rose Gold Metallic Specialty Paper.

Measurements Used..

Card Base Misty Moonlight – Portrait Card 10.5 x 29.9cm, scored at 14.9cm Or Landscape Card 14.9 x 21cm, scored at 10.5cm
Card Mat Balmy Blue or Pool Party – 10 x 14.4cm
Card Front DSP- 9.7 x 14.1cm
Circle Die cut – 7 x 7 cm cut with 5.5cm die (cut size of circle), then embossed with the Tasteful Textile 3D Embossing Folder.
Metallic Specialty Paper – 1.5 x 9cm
Sentiment – Scrap of Basic White
Sentiment – scrap of Balmy Blue or Pool Party
Card Insert Basic White – 10 x14.4cm

Batik Boutique – Friday Facebook Live

Published on June 6, 2021June 6, 2021 by Michele Jutrisa

Hi and welcome today to my Blog.

I love this card……Batik Boutique is a Bundle I like straight away from the 2021-22 Stampin’ Up! ® Annual Catalogue.

But I think it can easily be a ‘Love / Hate’ bundle. This is the first card I have made using this bundle and it was inspired by the card on page 114.

The medallion was a little like putting together a small jigsaw and it definitely the focal point of this card….It was worth it!

the sentiments used on this card comes from the Create with Friends Stamp Set on page 36.

How to make this card…

All the tips and ticks to making this card is in the video…don’t let the detail in the medallion scare you.

Measurements Used –

Card Base Soft Succulent – 10.5 x 29.9cm, score 14.9cm
Card front Basic White – 9 x12cm, Die cut with Stitched So Sweetly Dies
Medallion Evening Evergreen, Soft Succulent, Polished Pink – 10 14.9cm of each colour. Adhere Adhesive sheet to all and die cut the 2 medallion dies
Medallion Basic White – scrap to cut the base for the medallion
Card Insert – 10 x 14.4cm
Card Insert Trim Polished Pink – .8 x 10cm
