Frosted Forest Bundle

Published on July 27, 2024July 27, 2024 by Michele Jutrisa

I have just received Frosted Forest Bundle in my Stampin’ Up! ® delivery, so I thought today would be a good time to pull it out and use it. This bundle includes Frosted Forest Stamp Set, Frosted Forest Dies and Frosted Forest Decorative Masks.

The Frosted Forest Bundle is part of the Online Exclusives and wont be found in the Catalogue.

Have you ever read the information that comes with the masks…I hadn’t until today. It has all these different ideas on how you could colour your Masks..

Spritz using ink, chalk or glimmer sprays
Sponge using ink or paint – Trace using markers
Emboss with VersaMark ink and embossing powders
Add Texture using embossing paste

Anyway that got me thinking…How about we create a card using one of these methods. So with a ‘Spritzer tool’ I decided to create this fun 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	Balmy Blue	3 ¾ x 5”	9.3 x 14.2cm
Card Front	Basic White	3 ⅝ x 4 ⅛”	9.5 x 13.9cm
Sentiment & Birds	Basic White	1 ½ x 4”	4 x 10cm

I used Stampin’ Write Markers with my Spritzer Tool, this gave it a lovely speckled effect, just like leaves.

Tree Trunk Mask 1 – Crumb Cake, Pecan Pie and Early Espresso
Leaves Mask 2 – Lemon Lime Twist & Granny Apple Green
Leaves Mask 3 – Garden Green

Enduring Beauty – Ghost Colouring

Published on July 24, 2024July 24, 2024 by Michele Jutrisa

The card I created last night on my live uses the Stampin’ Up! ® Enduring Beauty Stamps, Enduring Beauty Dies and Enduring Beauty Decorative Masks.

I’m calling this technique ‘Ghost Colouring’ as the White Craft Ink on a dark cardstock has a ghost look or a sheerness effect when applied with a Blending Brush onto a dark surface such as the Basic Black. This would also look great on Night Of Navy and Blackberry Bliss.

You can add colour on top of the White Craft Ink but it will change the shade of your colour a lot (as shown in Video, linked below)

Measurements Used…

	Colour	Imperial/Letter	Metric/A4
Card Base	Basic Black	4 ¼ x 11”, score @ 5 ½”	10.5 x 29.9cm, score @ 14.9cm
Card Mat	Basic White	4 x 5¼”	10 x 14.4cm
Card Front	Basic Black	3⅞ x 5⅛	9.7 x 14.1cm
Card Insert	Basic White	4 x 5 ¼”	10 x 14.4cm
Sentiment	Basic White	2 x 3½	5 x 9cm
Scraps of Basic Black & Basic White for die cutting of leaves

Layers of Beauty Cards and Gift Box

Published on July 21, 2024July 21, 2024 by Michele Jutrisa

Here I have created Cards & Gift Box/Filo using the Stampin’ Up!® Layers of Beauty Bundle over 2 videos, I hope you enjoy!

Layers of Beauty bundle by Stampin’ Up!® is at the moment my all time favorite product.

Why?

It’s a traditional floral image, easy to colour with the use of the masks that come with the bundle and can also be die cut with the coordinating dies. You can change up the look to be either modern, shabby chic or just traditional or old world. It’s all up to you and how you use colour.

Layers of Beauty Cards Part 1

I created these cards the same as you might do a ‘One Page Wonder’- where you create your own Designer Series Paper and cut it up to create card fronts.

Starting with a sheet of Basic Beige A4 cardstock I ruled in faint lines through the center of both the length and width of the cardstock. This was to give an idea of where I needed to stamp the images, so that I would be left with part images either side. I didn’t stamp exactly the same both sides as I wanted some of my cards to have a different look or orientation.

The YouTube video is below showing how I created the cards.

Cutting Measurements per card (except for Card Front use full sheet of card stock)

	Colour	Imperial/Letter	Metric/A4
Card Base	Night of Navy	4 ¼ x 11”, score @ 5 ½”	10.5 x 29.9cm, score @ 14.9cm
Card Mat	Misty Moonlight	4 x 5¼”	10 x 14.4cm
Card Front	Basic Beige	Letter size, then cut later to 3⅞ x 5⅛	A4 size, then cut later to 9.7 x 14.1cm
Card Insert	Basic Beige	4 x 5 ¼”	10 x 14.4cm

Layers of Beauty Gift Box/Filo Part 2

The design for this Box/ Filo was cased from Mikeala Titheridge Varied Vases Note Card Holder. I have changed the measurements to suite the size of A6 & C6 Cards & Envelopes.

YouTube video below shows how I completed my cards and created the box.

Working out the Box/Filo Measurements

To create your box you need some basic measurements to create your formula. I am using metric measurements for Australian C6 envelopes. Your measurements may differ depending on how many cards you want in your box and the envelope size.

Because of the size I needed to created the box I have used 12 x12″ scrapbook Cardstock

Finished Box Size – Worked on Envelope C6 (11.3 x 16cm) plus extra for width and length = 12 x 17cm
Spine– Depth of Cards and envelopes =2cm
- Unlike a box with a lid this is more of a Filo with a side opening. The right side has a full spin with between front and back. The left side has 2 spines attached to either side of opening at half width of full spine.
Flap Depth inside box = 6cm

Formula

Width= front width + Spine + Back Width (12 + 2 +12 = 26cm)
Length= length + half spine + Flap (17 +1+6 = 24cm)
Side Tabs (cut x2) or left Spines
- tab width + half spine + tab width (1 +1+1= 3cm)
- length Flap depth (6cm)

Cutting Measurements

	Colour	Imperial/Letter	Metric/A4
Box Base	Night of Navy, 12 x 12″ Cardstock		26 x 24cm
Side Tabs	Night of Navy		3 x 6cm (cut 2)
Front	Basic Beige		10.5 x 14.9cm
Mat Front & Back	Misty Moonlight		10.8 x 15.2cm

Wow!…Love it!

Stampin’ Up! ® have created a stamp/die bundle with pockets dies, Pocket Thoughts Bundle is a Bundle with images & pocket dies that could be used on cards or scrapbook pages.

Pocket Thoughts images could be used on cards where you might want to celebrate Birthdays, Engagement/weddings or Graduations. The dies that come in this bundle are for three size pockets that can be used for gift cards, notes or jounrnaling pockets on scrapbook layouts.

This card was created for my sons partner and I had fun playing with my two favorite colours in the 2024-26 In Colours Designer Series Paper – Petunia Pop and Summer Splash

Measurements Used…

	Colour	Imperial/Letter	Metric/A4
Card Base	Petunia Pop	4 ¼ x 11”, score @ 5 ½”	10.5 x 29.9cm, score @ 14.9cm
Card Mat	Summer Splash	4 x 5¼”	10 x 14.4cm
Card Front	DSP	3⅞ x 5⅛	9.7 x 14.1cm
Pocket/Stamping	Basic White	3½ x 7”	8.5 x 17cm
Card Insert Mat	Summer Splash	4 x 5 ¼”	10 x 14.4cm
Card Insert	Basic White	3⅞ x 4⅞”	9.7 x 13.4cm
Leaf (added extra)	Gold Foil	2 x 2”	5 x 5cm

Tips

Pocket Thoughts Die – middle size
The Happy Birthday sentiment was stamped once in full strength ink and then stamped of in second Generation stamping.
The stamps in the set are two step stamps – one stamp, stamps the image and the 2nd stamp colours the image. Here the icing on the cup cake stamp was stamped off to get a lighter shade or 2nd Generation stamping.
The cup cake base I coloured using Summer Splash Stampin’ Blends – Light and dark.
I used a 10-12cm (4-4 1/2″) length of ribbon in Petunia Pop and Summer Splash. Gently unravel the ribbon so your left with the weft threads. Place the two colours together and tie together. Trim the ends to neaten off.
I doubled the Dimensionals for height behind the cup cake to cover the knot of the ribbon.
The photo’s below i have added an extra Gold Foil leaf. The die leaf is from the Thoughtful Wishes Dies.

Friends for Life

Published on July 6, 2024July 6, 2024 by Michele Jutrisa

Full of Life Suite Collection by Stampin’ Up! ®….This is such a beautiful collection full of life and fun….The colours are bright and playful.

These cards I have kept very basic with just a card base, mat and card front, letting the Full Of Life Designer Series Paper be the hero.

There is a lot happening on each sheet of DSP with all that colour, so you can keep your card design simple. In my live I made 3 cards all using the same elements and measurements, just changing the focal point colour. To add some extra interest you can always add an embossing folder as i did in one of my cards.

Tune In

Published on July 4, 2024July 1, 2024 by Michele Jutrisa

Our theme this month for the Let’s Craft Together Blog Hop is a ‘Theme – Card or Scrapbook page for the Men’, and for this challenge I am using the Tune In Bundle by Stampin’ Up!®.

I have tried to give this card a ‘Retro Feel’, using the Tune In Bundle, which is all about the Retro Television.

I created a fun background for my card with the Nest Essential Dies, change the colours used and it could be for anyone. Rectangles were cut from Basic Gray cardstock and adhered in a stacked pattern to a Basic Black Base.

Smaller Basic White frames overlapping create that retro look. These were made by using 2 smaller rectangles nested one inside the other and run through the Mini Cut and Emboss Machine.

The Glossy Television reminds me of the small white shinny TV my parents had back in the 60’s. To created this effect I filled in the outer section of the stamped image with a Fine-Tip Glue Pen. Let it dry for an hour or two before die cutting it out.

The television antenna was die cut from Silver Foil, which I had adhered Adhesive Sheet to the back before cutting.

The card insert I used off cuts from the Basic Gray rectangles and adhered onto a Real Red strip.

I just love all the ‘POPS’ of red!

Top Cat- Paper Piecing

Published on June 10, 2024June 10, 2024 by Michele Jutrisa

This was so much fun, if you like doing something different. I created a page using Paper Piecing to compliment my photos using Stampin’ Up! ® Products

Going through all my photo’s I came across these of my 2 eldest boys all dressed up for School Mufti Day. The theme was to go dressed up as a cartoon character. Aaron wanted to go as Batman and Hayden as Top Cat. Top Cat wasn’t a cartoon that was on TV but Joe and I grew up with Top Cat and we had introduced the boys to this cartoon show. Hayden really loved the story and fun of Top Cat, Benny and Officer Dibble…so he had to be TC-Top Cat.

Over the last few days I have been playing with Paper Piecing….What is Paper piecing? Simply, Paper piecing is where you take an image and break it into sections e.g colour or Top Cat’s body and vest. Cutting out each layer in coloured cardstock or Designer Series Paper and then putting all those individual parts together to form your image.

How I created my page…

Paper Piecing

To create my paper piecing images

I down loaded images from the internet and printed them to the finished size I wanted.
Traced off each section onto tracing paper or you can cut your printed image up and use as a pattern. I used a mixture of both to get the details in the face and hands.
Using a Stylus trace each section onto cardstock, this will leave an indentation (score line) on the cardstock. Go over this lightly with a pencil.
With either scissors or craft knife cut each piece out. I like to leave a tab or extension piece. For example I extended the neck up so that I could attach the head, extend the tail to attach under the body. The feet to the neck is one piece. Where as the arms, tail and head are separate

Trace off any features you want with stylus and pencil in, these were later drawn in with a Basic Black Stampin’ Write Marker
I like to piece mine together as a separate piece to my page, that way I can move it around to where I want it
To give a cartoon effect I went around everything with the Basic Black Stampin’ Write Marker

Photo

Photos I just kept simple by just matting with Basic White

Layout

For my layout I created a scene.

The scene was broken up into 3 parts with strips of Black added around the edges to create a boarder.

Sky – Basic White Cardstock.

Using a mask from a Discontinued Die- Basic Boarders, I created clouds with a blending brush and Balmy Blue Stampin’ Pad. The mask I had used before and some of the previous ink transferred to the Basic White with the Balmy Blue and gave a great effect…even if not planned.
I did do Light Beam lines to the Batman Logo but they got a bit lost…opps!

Fence – Pebble Path

For the fence and then created palings by cutting strips of Pebble Path cut slightly longer
Using the wood grain stamp from Country Birdhouse Stamps stamp each paling
Each paling was brushed with ink, Pebble Path Stampin’ Pad to add an uneven texture.

Ground– Granny Apple Green

To add texture to the ground I die cut grass and leaves using the Fluffiest Friends Dies and Granny Apple Green and Old Olive Cardstock.
These were added around bottom of fence line and scattered around.

Journaling

I used the alphabet dies – Alphabet a la Mode to create the title ‘Mufti Day’ with just a little bit of hand written journaling.

Thoughtful Journey

Published on June 6, 2024June 6, 2024 by Michele Jutrisa

My 60th Birthday Flowers

I am really enjoying getting back into scrapbooking, as this is where my real passion lies.

Last year I celebrated my 60th Birthday and I received 2 beautiful big bunches of flowers from my parents and from my sister, Lynette in the UK. I took lots of photos but here are the 2 I decided to work with.

Template Tuesday,Live with Michele….

I am creating a scrapbook layout using the Thoughtful Journey Suite Collection by Stampin’ Up!®. The Thoughtful Designs 12 x12″ Specialty Designer Series Paper works so well against the flowers. The pack contains 5 ‘Ombre’ papers with a shimmery leaf design all over. The sheet I used goes from a Calypso Coral to Petunia Pop, and picks up the tones in my photo’s. I also used a sheet of the Thoughtful Journey 6 x 6″ Designer Series Paper for my journaling. The colours with a little bit of Pretty Peacock pulls everything together.

The flowers used are from the Simply Zinnia Bundle and were coloured using Stampin Up!® Blends – Bubble Bath & Petunia Pop, Pretty Pink & Calypso Coral. I thought they worked well with the flowers in my photots.

Template Tuesday

For this layout I used a template found of Pinterest. This is a great way to get started in scrapbooking. Using your photos as a guide you can pull out the papers that works with your layout. Templates are a great starting point and you can easily make it your own by either turning the layout around or changing photo sizes, adding your own elements etc.

Country Flowers

Published on June 4, 2024June 2, 2024 by Michele Jutrisa

Our theme this month for the Let’s Craft Together Blog Hop is a ‘Tic Tac Toe Challenge’ by Carolina and I am using the Country Flowers Bundle by Stampin’ Up!®. This Bundle is part of the Country Woods Suite Collection and I used sentiments from the Country Birdhouse Stamp set.

3D Project

My 3D Project is a Diorama Card.

What is a Diorama Card – it is a 3D scene created inside a box.

The window box I created is deep and my layers are sitting on the back with layers built up with dimensionals. Possibly, if I was to make this again I might make my Box not as deep and added some of the flowers onto the back of the window. As this was I the first time I have made one of these card I am very happy with it.

The sides of the card pushes inwards, so the card can lay flat and fit in an envelope.

The back has a panel added to write your greetings on.

Die Cut Shape

I didn’t use a regular shape as a circle or square, instead I stamped, coloured and Die cut my images with the coordinating dies. So maybe a not technically correct a shape but they are DIE CUTS

Images were stamped using Pebble Path Ink Pad and coloured with Stampin’ Blends

Embossing

I created a frame on the front of my box and Embossed that with one of the Basics 3D Embossing Folders found in the Online Exclusives. I also created a panel for the inside back wall of my box which I also Embossed with the same folder, to give a textured background.
